    I don't think most players would like that approach. They are going to want the whole deck shuffled thoroughly, and then have cards dealt to them only from the top of the deck.

    One thing hasn't much in card games - it's VERY important to avoid the appearance of cheating or in any way, bending the rules of the game.

    Why use two strings when one will do?
    Code:
    puts( "Shuffling..." );

    Don't start multiple threads for the same thing. This thread should simply have been continued.

    Agreed - closed. Use the other thread.
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
