Question:    What makes Riffle shuffle so unique in practice among the players in Online Poker gaming?

Answer:    A riffle shuffle is when one cuts a deck in twain and flutters the two sections together by applying pressure to the back of the cards while pulling up on the front with the thumb. The thumbs, simultaneously, release the pressure to make the cards flutter together. Then, the two sections are pushed together. This is another way to cheat in live casinos. To put it simply (because it is), while shuffling the cards, the shuffler notes which half of the deck was the bottom half and which was the top half after you cut it. A handler will make sure that the bottom half releases first, putting the bottom card on the bottom. One can also make the bottom half stop fluttering before the top half to make sure that the top card stays on top.
