And that begins with shuffling.Īnd how often doesn't it happen that a magician hands someone a deck of cards, asks them to shuffle their selected card into the pack, and the poor person makes a fool of himself because he can't do a simple card shuffle. Like me, you probably love playing cards, so the very least you can do is look somewhat professional in the way that you handle them.
After all, it's a little embarrassing if you have a massive collection of 100+ beautiful custom decks, and your shuffling skills are uglier than the back end of a city bus. And one of them is this: knowing how to do a decent shuffle. If you're going to spend any time with a deck of playing cards, some things are an absolute must.
