ConceptThe table settles before it resets
When a hand ends, the table does not immediately shuffle. First, determine whether the hand ended by win or draw.
If someone won, verify the hand and score it. Then settle payments. After that, determine the next dealer and prepare the next hand.

TakeawayEvery hand has a closing flow
Every hand ends with settlement, then the table prepares for the next hand.
