How fast can you Unshuffle a deck of cards?

[Don Boyer]

Yo can Zarro shuffle or Spider Shuffle (fake riffles) as much as you like and leave them all in exactly the same order every time.  Very deceptive, very difficult and takes a bit of time to actually do.

You can also super cheat and just use a stripper deck.  Start by swing cutting an ordered deck, then do a fair riffle shuffle.  Spread the cards to show they are mixed.  Then just keep doing fair riffle shuffles using strip cuts until you've decided enough is enough, then strip cut the cards, put the correct half on top and call it a day.  I've actually used a routine similar to this in performance.

Now that's ingenious!  I like it!  I have to add that little weapon to my arsenal...


Has anyone else tried beating the leaderboard?

I've tried to slice off another .4 seconds to get into 2nd but to no avail at the present (Cutting my finger whilst cooking is not good for my magic )

Almost - you were close.  I hold the fastest time at 1:25.8, but I believe you took second place.  The leaderboard is in the first post, at the bottom.

1:48 after a couple practice tries.

Also try using 2 decks in 2 different colors and you need to make sure that you stack them back in new deck order, and both in their respective color. It was super hard for me, figured it was an added challenge for you guys who are blowing others out of the water.
