Card shuffling is an important element when playing card games. Through this, cards are randomized. It ensures fair gaming and that all players shall have equal chances of winning. Card shuffling comes in different types. Some are too simple to perform, while others require a little bit of practice.

The weave technique is another method of randomizing cards. With this method, cards are cut into two (2) equal parts and pushed against each other for them to intertwine. This card shuffling method is likewise used by many, most especially the beginners.

Pile technique
Between the two card shuffling methods, the pile technique is the easiest. First, you need to separate and group the cards. Next, you must distribute the remaining cards so that they stack up with each other. Collect all the cards together and you are done with the pile card shuffling technique.

Riffle

For the riffle, you have to separate the deck into two (2) parts. Afterwards, slowly let your hands run through the cards and allow them to stack alternately.

Faro
