shuffleing the deck 

In theory it is possible that whilst 'shuffling' a deck of cards, that the cards could be set into certain favourable positions; this expression is based upon such a premise.

Said when there is a suspicion that an outcome has been obtained in a prearranged fashion, usually by a specific person, directly involved.
