 |  Every online poker room uses random number generators (RNG) to shuffle the decks and pull the cards one by one. A good RNG generates numbers that are:- Evenly distributed
- Unrelated
- Unpredictable

| GAME FAIRNESS COMMITMENT
 |
Where a 'random' number generator is biased, players could recognize and exploit its bias. A poker roomıs RNG is its lifeblood. A faulty RNG means predictable games, which means players quickly disappearing to look elsewhere for a fair game. Itıs in the poker roomıs interest to use as unbiased an RNG as possible.
Sneak Poker uses 2 cryptographically certified and secured RNG's. Each incorporates a "seed", i.e. the point from which a sequence of randomly generated numbers starts. It's impossible to predict the sequences resulting from the seed. To ensure that a sequence doesn't repeat, the seed is calculated using as many factors as possible, including network activity, time of day and many other parameters.
- So how many possible points can the seed start from? 1000? 10,000? A million?
Actually, it's 2 to 19937th power, which is slightly larger than the number formed by the numeral 4 followed by 6,000 zeroes.
- And exactly how big a number is that?
It's hard to get a feeling for the magnitude of hyper-large numbers like that, because there's no real physical property to attach to it. For instance, it can't compare to the number of ounces the Earth weighs, as that number is a tiny, tiny, tiny fraction of the number of possible seeds our RNG's use.
So yes, we're confident you won't see a deal repeat itself anytime soon
