While doing so, he executes a faro shuffle (which needn't be perfect) and a push through riffle shuffle. If these shuffles are not... | ★★★★★ $10 to wish list | |
OvationStephen Minch & Martin A. NashOvation is the card act that, for the last few years, Martin Nash reserved strictly for his use in the Close-Up Room at the Magic Castle.

It is not a self-working routine. It will take practice. But the end gives an impression far in excess of its means. Once mastered it... | ★★★★★ $10 to wish list | |
