While playing Video poker I noticed that on every new hand their was a new random client seed and server seed which I'm assuming is a new Provably fair shuffled deck. In the event of a winning hand the server and client seed change again for the next hand or the "high low bonus feature" depending on what the player chooses. The bonus feature is allowed up to three times allowing for the possibility to double your winnings each time. I have noticed that while playing the bonus feature neither the server or client seed change during any of the three doubling attempts, so one would assume that in order to be provably fair that the cards for each doubling attempt are all coming from the same shuffled deck. Is this correct? If not, where are they coming from and how does a player determine if they are in fact coming from a random, provably fair deck since neither the server or client seed change. If they are all coming from the same deck for each of the three attempts then could someone explain how is it possible for in some cases the same card to appear in two or even three of the three bonus attempts. How is this provably fair? My most recent game that I played that inspired this posting went as follows; I won a hand with 3 aces one of which was a ace of spades, I then hit the double feature and won however one of the four cards was an ace of spades, I doubled again and won but again one of the four cards was an ace of spades, then I doubled again and this time the house card was the ace of spades and I lost. Neither the server seed or client seed changed for these three attempts at doubling my winnings, so where are these cards coming from and how can I verify that they are provably fair random cards?
For bonus double down games, the deck is shuffled every time. The server seed is randomized for each game played. I just double checked the http parameters to confirm this.
These calls were made for the two double down games that I played:

The server seed is different for each game played.
It looks like the text is not getting updated when playing double down games. Also it looks like the client seed gets locked to a particular value. This is just an issue with the UI. There isn't any requirement in the API that the client seed needs to be the same.
Thanks for pointing this out. I will look into fixing the UI text immediately.
