8 Perfect Faro Shuffles

8 Perfect Faro Shuffles restore a deck of 52 card to its original setting. There are different ways to hold the cards. I favor this way because the right hand and the left hand work almost symmetrical which contributes to the beauty of this shuffle.
I wish I could do it as a table faro.

what the heck this does not make sense......

@99magical It makes no sense, it is simply a demonstration of a baffling mathematical principle of a perfect shuffle.

that doesnt realy look like a real shuffle , no one shuffles the cards that way.

[phms0001]

@TheBradTobin Yes, it doesn't look like a "normal" shuffle. A Faro Shuffle is simply a perfect weave of the cards. There are various methods to accomplish this perfect weave. Maybe I am the only one to do it this way. There are quite a few people on YouTube who show other ways to the perfect Faro. Try a few of them to appreciate the beauty of the perfect weave.

@phms0001 I know its a farro shuffle, my point is that it does not mimic a regular shuffle, although its a very pretty shuffle to watch, it doesnt seem practical to use other than a flourish type thing i guess, where other farros mimic the actions of well know everyday shuffles the average person would use.

@TheBradTobin Believe me I would love to do a perfect table Faro! I am still in the process of training that. Meanwhile I can learn the maths behind the Faro and the Faro tricks with my way to shuffle the cards.

@phms0001 of cource, and inla magic or gambling effect you could say" this is a very common shuffle in countrys like..." and to lay people that would seem very interesting.
