Anyone play Seven Card Stud on full tilt poker? Ever realize they mix up the the showdown hand? This ruins the the outlook of play one's hand selection if your an opponent in the hand. poker stars doesn't mix up the configuration of open board cards dealt to other players. This can prove to be a significant disadvantage. One is unable to utilize player notes while in table play. Thumbs down for Full Tilt. Bummer.

This is done because in live stud games, most players mix up their 3 down cards on 7th street, so at showdown their opponent can't accurately know what their two starting hole cards were. pokerstars chooses to not mimic this common occurrence.

This, ^^^^^ exactly. PS should take a lesson from FT in this case.
