How to Assemble a Svengali Deck

Video Transcript

"Hi everybody! First, let me talk to you about how to put a Svengali deck together. This is going to become handy if you ever drop your cards, which does happens sometimes, or occasionally when you buy some of the toy store brand ones that will come disassembled. Let me show you what you have. A Svengali deck is going to be a bunch of cards that are the same, I'm going to talk you more about this a little later, and a bunch of cards that are different like half and half. Now, exactly how this works we'll get into a couple segments from now, but basically you want them to alternate. The easiest way to get that to happen is you put the packet of all the same cards in one hand, the packet of all different cards in the other hand, and you just drop alternating like this so that you get one of your cards is the same, one of your cards is different. We're just going to keep putting these together like this. What's going to eventually going to happen is build a whole deck where the cards alternate. You can also do it like this if you want. You want to have your cards just the same every other card. Come back in a little bit and I'll show you more about how to use this."
