Stacking the deck refers to prearranging the cards in the deck so the best cards are dealt to you so you can win the hand. In games of chance such as cards this is illegal. In the Old Wild West, you would be shot if you were caught doing it.

Business is somewhat like a game of chance. To some extent, statistics govern your chances for success. If you have a good location on a busy street, traffic statistics indicate that your business will be exposed to enough potential customers to get your market share of the customers which will generate the necessary sales. This is stacking the deck.

If you are well capitalized, capitalization statistics say that you will probably have enough money to last through the first few business years when you usually lose money. This is stacking the deck.

In business, there is no law against stacking the deck in your favor. It is called prior planning and preparation.

When you start a business on the Internet, you really need to stack the deck in your favor (plan well) since statistics say that over 90 percent of online home businesses fail.
