The curtain on the front of the shoe is there to cover the backs of the cards. This help to protect the casino against marked cards since the players will not be able to see the cards before they are dealt. What good is a marked card if you can't see the mark?
The dealers are trained to use their left hand to cover the front of the shoe, but there are times when they must use both hands during play. The curtain covers the shoe even when the dealers can't.
