Take a look at what I found in the FAQ.

I have been playing where you shuffle your objectives and pull the top
one, look at it and then put it face down on the table.

When I origanally looked at Tony's message I thought he was playing
wrong. Boy was I wrong, see the FAQ Q&A below. To me this makes
Evaluate a definite card in any deck with Sucker Run.

FAQ Question
Q: Can I look at my Objective before I put it into play face down?
A: No. If you accidentally see the Objective that you are putting
into
play, shuffle it back into the rest of your Objectives and choose
another.
