"You know the right shuffle starts with the right deck of cards. We have four decks here to use as an example, here is a deck that I call the tourist deck. We all seen decks like these; they are very nice, it has a nice photo on it, cards are kind of thick, you turn it over there is a photo here and a description of what you are seeing. You know it is a nice sort of novelty commemorative object of a place that someone visited. But it is not the greatest to play cards with as a matter of fact we played with this deck, see it's just hard to shuffle. You probably would get maybe an hours worth out of this. Look at that I shuffled two times and that card is already bending (I don't know if you can see that). Let's move on, very similar is this deck that I got in my stocking one year during the holidays. Now hey, I'm a graduate and very fond of it and I think that is why my relative gave me these. But again this is a hard deck to shuffle, I don't get much play out of these cards, they are hard to bend and if I do shuffle with them they are going to stay bent. Look at that just from that little bit of action this card is bending. You are not going to get a lot of poker games out of these."
