Yep, we don't know the exact process, but it's irrelevant which card you pick. It's probably just misleading, but it does make you wonder how many other corners Microgaming cut.

Another problem is the way the game actually works contradicts the game description in the software's on-line help:

If you win a hand in the game and want to Double, do the following:

1. Click the Double button. Five new cards are dealt, and the Dealer's card is turned face up.

2. Select any of the four remaining face down cards. All four are turned over to reveal their values and the card you selected is highlighted.
