    Brand new cards are usually stiff and slippery. Here's a few things you can do to break them in and condition your deck so that they are better for handling. The goal is to turn the stiff slickness into a soft smoothness.

    I'm a beginner, about to learn the riffle shuffle. Cards are very stiff, so i look for a video to break them in, maybe that helps. First thing in the video "do 10-20 riffle shuffles"... ... ...ok, i'll try :D

    Good sound advice. I like your card mat. Here's my contribution: You will notice that the 2 Jokers in Bicycle decks are different. One colour and one B/W. So I always open 2 packs at a time and switch one of the jokers round so each pack has 2 identical jokers. This is very useful for some effects I do. Also it means you have time to break in the second deck before the first one becomes too floppy and worn out. Merry Xmas!

      nono, the lepaul is a weaker horizontal spring, if you're going to argue that the spring is okay, then the le paul is obviously fine. If the le paul is going to wreck your cards then so is the spring.
      You may have a case with the pressure fan, but only if you're willing to separate it from the le paul.

    Good vid, although the clean, reliably straight cut of a sharp knife blade seems preferable to me than chancing it with one's thumbnail, especially if the tuck box is going to be kept and used. There is something inelegant, I think, about a jagged, gnarly-looking tear of the seal, which often happens.

    Hi, those riffle shuffles are perfect, I have been practicing that shuffle for some time now, brought a few variations of cards, Bicycle, Tally-Ho, arcane, Monarchs and Madson Rounders but no matter what cards I use, new, used, cheap, expensive the bottom say 10 to 15 cards always come of in one clump. I am getting very frustrated as I have been trying for some months now, every video I watch, people make it look easy. Do you have any tips please.

      The deck you have is the same deck that was printed before the shift in corporate headquarters from cincinnati Ohio to Erlinger Kentucky. Your box has the back design on it and "Rider back" actually written on it.
      They're great cards. Same as the ones in the video, if not a little better due to the older decks having a better printing process.
