Why do you say you have any control over it? You don't have control over it. Nobody has control over it.

If you had control over it, people would have websites designed to calculate how long you should wait before clicking call to better maximize profit.

It doesn't matter when you click the call button because it's random. It's random if you had clicked it a second earlier. It's random if you clicked it a second later.

Random is random. There is no degree of randomness. And, any difference in randomness based on when you clicked the call button is silly talk.

I throw a die on the ground. One of six possibilities equally likely to occur.

I wait two seconds and throw a die on the ground. One of six possibilities equally likely to occur.

Whether I held the die with the one facing up or shook my hand is inconsequential for the odds of an event occuring.

Like has been said above, if this bothers you...you're what if'ing yourself to death and it's a health hazard.

=======================

I think there is a difference between wanting it more like a live game and feeling that you affect the random drawing of cards by when you click the call button.
