    Doug explains a shuffle that


    wasn't.

    THE DRUNKEN MASTER SHUFFLE


    By Doug Edwards
    All of the false shuffles I perform (and have ever published) can be executed on
    a hard surface. A close-up mat is not necessary. This is no exception. When
    presenting it, I use a 'drunk' rationale stating that "A drunk grabbed the deck
    and cut here - and here - and here - and here - and then shuffled."
    The secretly stacked deck should be on the table in riffle shuffle position.

    Your left hand grasps the deck from above and moves to the right depositing a
    quarter of the deck.

    Bring the deck back to the left and deposit another quarter of cards.

    Move the cards back to the right and deposit another quarter onto the first
    packet but stepped to the right for about an inch.

    Now move the last remaining quarter onto the second quarter also stepped to
    the right. The above four cuts should be done at a fairly rapid speed and
    without hesitation.

    Each hand now grips its respective halves in riffle-shuffle readiness. The
    sections are brought together: the left half onto the right half. The lower
    quarter of the left half should rest about an eighth of an inch on the right hand
    section's top quarter.

    Start the shuffle by letting the cards riffle off your right thumb a tad faster than
    the cards riffling off your left thumb. What happens here is that the inner left
    corner of the right hand's upper quarter will 'hit' the face of - and stop - the left
    hand's upper quarter. This is the key to the idea. Continue riffle shuffling by
    riffling the thumbs against the upper quarters of each half. The halves are
    riffled only and not riffled into each other.

    As you will see, the deck is still in its original order as each packet remains
    neatly separated.

    Complete the shuffle by straightening the telescoped halves (as you normally
    would when closing a shuffle) with both palms pushing them together. It's
    important that the fingers sort of mask/screen the shuffled(?) halves when
    pushing them together. The deck is now back in its original order.
    With a little practice this shuffle works automatically. The deck really appears to
    be shuffled in a random and haphazard fashion.
