They're only turning half the cards, right?
Edge sorting. No other possible answer.
There might not be any advantage play to it in Pai Gow, but it's probably easier to train the dealers to do the turn on all games.
FYI Elliot's blog has a lot of discussions about edge sorting.

Quite a few game protection experts have been preaching the "turn" recently. Card safety was a hot topic at Willy Allison's World Game Protection Conference in February. For many casinos, it is common to not have a turn for their proprietary games even when their shuffle for blackjack includes a turn. A couple of proprietary games have been hit hard recently, so "include a turn" has become a mantra.
