Wish there was a way to watch player and see their cards so I might learn as I’m realizing I’m not very good but do love the game
You wish to watch players play & see their cards?

There's a reason why in a real world land-based tournament games nobody is allowed to watch players' cards. If a watcher was allowed to do that - that would have been an open invitation for collusion: a watcher then could find multiple ways (e.g. via gestures) to communicate about one player's hand to an opponent.
We have designed the system in such a way that it becomes impossible for any player or watcher to see other player's cards
Shuffling occurs within a firewall-protected server and only own hand is transmitted to a player.

At GameColony.com you can play games of skill only -- play for free or play for $prizes!.
According to the statutes of most states in the United States, gambling is defined as: "risking something of value upon the outcome of a contest of chance". (Also see No Gambling!). The skill (as opposed to chance) is predominant in games of skill. Playing games of skill for $prizes, therefore, has nothing to do with gambling as it is not a contest of chance -- the more skillful player will win far more often. The chance element of a 'gamble' is either insignificant or missing. When players compete in tournaments or games of skill for $prizes -- it is "competitive entertainment" rather then "gambling". The more skilled winner will always win more matches, tournaments and $prizes.
