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.
Overhand
technique
Simple and easy, it
does not take a professional dealer to perform the overhand technique. Even
beginners can master this method in one sitting. Also called as “stripping,”
you randomized cards via rearranging them in a reverse order. Another way to do
this is to get top cards from the deck and place it in the other hand.
Weave
technique
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
The rifle method is
the most common card randomizing technique. You see it in casino-inspired
movies. When you play live blackjack or live baccarat, you also see this
method. 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. Now if you push your thumb inward, lift the cards and randomize
the cards upward, you refer to this method as bridge.
Faro
At a glance, the faro
shuffle looks simple. But the truth is, it is a bit difficult to perform. So
how do you do this? First, you divide the deck into two (2) equal parts. Your
right hand should hold the cards upward while your left hand does the opposite.
Slowly, you intertwine the cards from both ends.
Card shuffling
techniques ensure that there is no bias in the game. As a matter of fact, even
with the availability of shuffling machines, still, many prefer to use the
manual card shuffling methods.
