Is the WPN poker program continuous shuffle? Does it keep shuffling the cards after flop and turn the remaining deck? And does player action affect the way the cards are shuffled like player mouse movement similar to some other poker softwares? Thanks

1) Have you asked the site?
2) Who cares? Or to put it another way, you shouldn't care, or at least not if it's going to affect your play.

Definitely keep your mouse moving when trying to fade a flush draw.

Doubling clicking the middle of the table to hit a set seems to help.

Yes it's a continues shuffle. If you call on the odd seconds you're 35.0% more likely to hit your draw. Call on the even and your opponent is around 64% more likely to go runner runner. I've even seen them deal an ocean card when you call on even seconds on the turn.

The secret is finding out what time they have, down to the seconds. They also like to change it around every once in a while to knock everyone out of sync.

That guy on "Press Your Luck" figured out their pattern years ago. I have been using a stopwatch to click at different times on different parts of the screen. I think I am very close to a breakthrough. It's taken about 2,647 hours of play and note taking thus far, but I am definitely seeing a pattern.

Pretty sure I heard it's a continuous shuffle, whereas Pokerstars uses a single shuffle. Personally if I had choose I prefer the latter as it's more like real poker with rabbit hunting and all, but in practicality, random and is random, and it doesn't matter.

All that matters with regards to OP's question is that whichever method they use, it is designed and implemented correctly.

Yeah that is all that matters. But still interesting to know. I asked support and I don't know if the guy understood what I meant, but he said something like "oh we don't tell anyone this info" as if I was asking for the password of the managers account or something, lol ... iexplained it twice and hes still like "oh we don't talk about this or let anyone know this stuff" lol
