If that player sticks around long enough, it will eventually not bother him at all (since he will realize those are rare cards that he will have many chances to "roll" for), but a lot of players may quit before then because of stuff like this and they'll just spread negative opinions about the game.
I agree to a point, but with a few minutes of asking around or browsing the forum, the info is widely known. Almost anyone that's been playing for over a month can tell you that everything in this game is predetermined, and I think we are all okay with that. If not, many of us wouldn't be here. It's not a rip-off, trickery or any other scam. This is an optional game and always will be. Spend or don't spend. Play or don't play. Have fun or don't.

The only thing I have ever not agreed with is when three gold cards are in the deck, and you flip 3 (for 10 + 50 gems) and somehow you still don't get a gold card. That has happened to me twice in the 9-10 months tynon have been around. Not bad odds.
