dumpleton dealing

Dumpleton dealing is the skilled art of having the dexterity, skill and experience of dealing a game of poker where the dealer is able to manipulate the cards at the last minute or last round of betting in order that a player who was odds on favourite to win ends up losing to a very unlikely turn of fate. Many dumpleton dealers are also magicians and can adapt there skills easily to close up magic or street cons such as 3 card monte.
Ian had a Full House Aces over Kings, he could only lose to one card, middle pin nine of hearts to give the other guy a straight flush, Sarah was dealing and last card she turned the nine of hearts!! She was dumpleton dealing for sure!!
