The purpose of the riffle shuffle stack is to place special cards, say the aces, at special locations in the deck so that during a dealing action those aces end up in a predetermined pile, usually the magicians hand.
For example, if you are dealing a five hand pocker game and you start out with the aces on top, riffle shuffle stacking allows you to place aces at position 5, 10, 15 and 20 from the top. In this video Allan teaches you how to stack two aces.

This is an overhand shuffle that allows you to retain cards in their respective half. Say you have all black cards in the top half of the deck and all red cards in the bottom half of the deck. This shuffle will keep all the red and black cards together. But it is not a complete false shuffle, because each half by itself is shuffled. This is a very useful move for effects like Out Of This World, Oil and Water, and other others.
