Faro Shuffle

Faro shuffle is a satisfying way to shuffle playing cards without putting in too much effort.

Similar to the Riffle Shuffle, Faro Shuffle works perfectly to break in a new deck of cards and bring it to a usable condition. Simply perform a few shuffles with a brand new deck and you'll notice your cards have become more obedient and less slippery.

Interesting facts:

  • 8 perfect faros will bring the deck back to its initial order
  • the Faro Shuffle was invented in 1726 for the namesake game, which had a goal of collecting pairs of cards. Specifically this way of shuffling was ideal for breaking those pairs after a round was over. This is due to the fact the cards interweave through each other in a perfect order during this shuffle
