Who is a "cutter"?

In card games, a cutter refers to the person who shuffles and cuts the deck before the cards are dealt. Cutting the deck involves splitting the deck into two parts and then reassembling it, often done by the player who is not dealing. This action is typically performed to ensure fairness by mixing the cards and preventing any order from being known. In some games, the cutter is also the one to decide the dealer or other aspects of the game, depending on the rules being followed.
