Faro Shuffle - How To Shuffle Cards

How To Do The Faro Shuffle

The Faro Shuffle is considered to be one of the most difficult and hard to learn shuffles.

To perform the Faro Shuffle:

• Cut the deck into two equal parts and hold one in each hand.
• Hold the cards in your right hand above the cards in your left hand.
• Lift up half the cards with your right thumb.
• Slightly push the left packet away from the right hand.
• Cross the cards and slam them together to align them.

While the Faro Shuffle is a cool card shuffle, it is more of a card trick as it doesn’t randomize the cards.
