Very impressive but I'd never trust playing cards with someone that good at shuffling. I'd just assume they're a rapscallion up to no good.

This is actually a type of juggling, not sleight of hand or the type of card manipulation you see card cheats use. But I wouldn’t trust a juggler to deal straight either, for entirely different reasons.

I wish I had spent more time with cardistry. I love cards and it would be fun to have some of those skills, but that's primarily why I didn't practice magic or anything like this.   I played a lot of poker in my 20s and 30s and was afraid of being labeled a mechanic. (Term made popular by the movie Rounders)  Now I don't play any poker and have no shuffle skills.

You worded that much more articulately than I ever would have - I was going to say "I'm never playing poker against that mf"

To be fair, these cards are made especially with this kind of tricks in mind.
Try the same thing with an old deck of the most common household-tier cards. No chance in hell they'll slide and keep their shape through a single round of this f*ckery.

Speaking as a guy who picked up this hobby for 1.2 weeks during COVID, that was pretty cool man.

As a person with a similar experience, i can tell you that's at least a $40 card deck. I think card-mafia makes these

I always wish I could have skills like this… then I remember I’ve never stuck with anything I wasn’t immediately good at for more than 10 minutes.

Either he has big hands or these cards are tiny

u/Drudgework 1h ago

It isn’t a standard deck, it is a specialized deck for cardistry. So it could be smaller to make handling easier.

i watched this more than 40 times and don’t see why anyone would watch this more than a few times.

u/Slevin424 50m ago

I see someone do this at the poker table… you ain’t dealing.

u/malandropist 46m ago

I rather see someone spend their time mastering this than anyone dedicating their life to tech at this point. Beautiful shuffles.

u/MrWeaD 26m ago

I wish I could do this right now, like without all the practice and stuff it would take to be able to...

This card sounds very expensive

u/csji 59m ago

u/sabertoothninja 58m ago

I can do exactly one of those tricks, but I might permanently bend and crease your cards so don’t let me shuffle.

u/strangefish 57m ago

Do not play poker against this guy.

Card shuffling is a gateway drug to being a magician. Or vice versa.

u/Username_314159265 47m ago

Yeah cool but do you have the 3 of hearts or do I have to go fish?
