How to get a function to run twice dynamically

This is a function.

def cut_dk():      a = []; b = []      random.shuffle(deck__)      slice = deck__[:2]      a.append(slice[0])      b.append(slice[1])      return a,b    c = cut_dk()  p1 = c[0]  p2 = c[1]  

I have this function at the top of the program along with other functions. It draws from a predefined list. When calling this function dynamically in the program it returns the same variables. It's the cutting of a card deck (two cards, highest wins the draw), when the cards are equal it needs to draw again (this is the problem, a second draw), a new selection from the list, yet it just repeats the variables it has in memory.

Calling the function again in a conditional statement just returns the same initial variables acquired on the first run, so I am unable to repeat the cut dynamically as part of the game play.
