Here is something I am playing with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The starting position is two aces on top and two on the bottom. Shuffle the deck keeping the aces on top and bottom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Set the deck in front of the spectator and have them cut the deck toward you, as in a game of poker. Finish the cut taking a break between the two halves as you place the deck into your left hand for dealing centers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now deal about ten or so cards off the top and then deal off to the side a “center”, which is an ace. The movement of the hands to deal off to the side provides some cover for the center deal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Continue dealing a few more cards and then deal to the side a second “center”, also an ace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You now have two aces below the break. Continue dealing to the break and then fairly deal to the side the third ace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now deal seconds a few times and then deal the last ace off to the side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Drop the un-dealt portion of the deck on top of the dealt cards and then turn over the four cards you dealt to the side to reveal the aces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you don’t want to deal seconds you can also do the following. With two aces on top and two on the bottom, riffle shuffle the deck keeping the aces on the bottom but “stacking” the top by adding four cards under the top ace. If you do two shuffles, each adding four cards, then the last ace can be found, not by dealing seconds, but by fairly dealing off the eight cards.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
