Encontré esto en «Card Zones – The Immaculate Card Magic of Peter Duffie». Este libro describe una pila para cuatro manos y luego proporciona la fórmula para otras manos. Como siempre demuestro una pila para cinco manos, aquí están los pasos.

Efecto:
Este es un efecto clásico de aceite y agua, donde se entrelazan cuatro cartas rojas y cuatro negras, se agitan y se muestran para mostrar que se han separado, quedando cuatro rojas y cuatro negras. Esto se repite tres o cuatro veces. Para culminar, se levanta la baraja barajada y se agita. Luego se extiende para mostrar que todas las cartas se han separado en rojas y negras. Hay muchos métodos publicados; no recuerdo dónde los encontré, pero puedes encontrar una lista en archivo de conjuros1.
Fortunes
Early in my career, when I was working on Unix systems I started collecting fortunes, quotations, etc and put them into a “fortune” program. Click the button below to see a new fortune.
Web pages never die
In 2013, when I was working with HB Design, I had my personal website hosted on a company web server. That server that was used for hosting employee websites has long since been decommission, and between that and my retirement the HTML table generator web tool that I wrote disappeared.
Now with my new site up I found that the link to the table generator was broken. After looking through all of my backups and archive files, and not finding the code, I decided to try the Way Back Machine and I found the code. Which illustrates how hard it is to lose a web page on the internet.
I was able to copy the source code off the Way Back Machine and, with some simple edits to remove code that the Way Back Machine inserted into the archived page, was able to recreate the tool on this web site.
You can play with the table generator at https://robertjwallace.com///tablegen

Efecto:
The four aces are fairly inserted into the fanned deck, in different locations. The fan is closed and the deck is cut, then shuffled twice. At the completion of the second shuffle, all four aces are on the top of the deck.

Efecto:
Se muestran cuatro ases sobre la baraja. Se colocan boca abajo y se insertan (dejándolos sobresalir) en la parte frontal, en diferentes lugares. Se coloca boca arriba para mostrar los ases, y luego boca abajo para insertarlos en la baraja. A continuación, se corta y se baraja una vez. Los cuatro ases vuelven a colocarse sobre la baraja. Una alternativa es simular un reparto central.

Some of the most magical effects are effects that have an element of luck involved. While such effects are often impossible to repeat, they are also impossible for the audience to figure out. They are effects that build reputations.
