Volviendo a uno de los primeros libros sobre magia con cartas que tuve, \u201cT\u00c9CNICA DE TARJETA EXPERTA<\/strong>Magia de mesa de cerca<\/em> Por JEAN HUGARD y FREDERICK BRAUE, analic\u00e9 su sistema para apilar una mano de p\u00f3ker. Describieron c\u00f3mo apilar cuatro cartas para una partida de cuatro jugadores. A continuaci\u00f3n, muestro instrucciones, usando su sistema, para apilar cuatro cartas que le caer\u00e1n al crupier en una partida de cinco jugadores. Recomiendo consultar el libro para m\u00e1s informaci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Como mencion\u00e9 en otras publicaciones sobre apilar con barajas por encima de la mano, esta pila tiene algunas desventajas. En particular, en el paso 4 se tiene una secuencia de 20 cartas individuales. Adem\u00e1s, dos veces hay que realizar un movimiento de entrada y salida juntos, y lanzar un bloque de cartas. Despu\u00e9s de la descripci\u00f3n, ofrecer\u00e9 algunas modificaciones que creo que mejoran esto.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

FOUR CARD STOCK<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

One card at the top; three cards at the bottom. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To stock the cards to fall to the fifth hand. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Undercut half the pack, run 4 cards, injog the next card, the 5th, and shuffle off, bringing the three cards originally at the bottom to the top.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Undercut at the injog, injog the top card of the left hand packet; run 5 cards, run 4 more cards and outjog the next, the 5th; and shuffle off. (a run of ten single cards)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Undercut at the outjog, retaining a break at the injog with the right thumb, and throw the cards above the break onto the top of the left hand packet. Run 5 cards, injog the next card and shuffle off.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Undercut at the injog, run 4 cards and injog the next card, the 5th; run 5 cards; run 5 more; run 4 more and outjog the next card, the 5th; and shuffle off. (a run of 20 single cards)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Undercut at the outjog, retaining a break at the injog with the right thumb, and throw the cards above the break onto the top of the left hand packet. Run 4 cards, injog the next card and shuffle off.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. Undercut at the injog and throw on top. The cards are stocked at 5, 10, 15 and 20 in position to fall to the fifth hand.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Note that this is not a easy sequence to remember. Steps two and four set up injogs and outjogs. Step three is the first “throw” with a run of five cards. Step five is the other “throw” with a run of four.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    How can we make the simpler?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Modifying it <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Start with two aces on top and two on the bottom. Now do a tabled riffle shuffle, keeping the aces intact on the bottom, but adding four cards between the two aces on top. It only takes a little practice to be able to hold back four cards and then drop them between the two top aces. An alternative is to keep three aces on the bottom and one on the top, then riffle shuffle four indifferent cards on top of the top ace. Then use a double cut to more the bottom ace to the top.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    You now have from the top down, an Ace, four x cards, an ace, the rest of the deck, and two aces on the bottom. Now to start the over hand shuffles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. Undercut half of the deck and run four cards, injog the next, and shuffle off to bring the bottom two aces to the top.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Undercut half of the deck while you injog the top card of the left hand packet; run 5 cards, run 5 cards, run 4 more cards and outjog the next, the 5th; and shuffle off. (a run of fifteen single cards)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Undercut at the outjog, retaining a break at the injog with the right thumb, and throw the cards above the break onto the top of the left hand packet. Run 5 cards, injog the next card and shuffle off.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. Undercut at the injog and throw on top. The cards are stocked at 5, 10, 15 and 20 in position to fall to the fifth hand.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      So for the price of a single riffle shuffle the overhand stacking is much simplified. There is only one long run of single cards, and only one injog\/outjog\/throw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Additional thoughts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      Instead of a riffle shuffle you could use a Braue technique to set up the cards. Start with the four aces face up on the table. As you patter, get a break under the top four cards of the deck, which is in your left hand. Your right hand picks up the face up aces and adds them to the top of the deck, but keeps a thumb break between the aces and the top four cards, which you right hand picks up. Now draw off the first ace and flip it face down onto the deck. As you right hand covers the deck, let the four indifferent cards fall on top the ace just turned over. Now, one at a time, flip the remaining aces over, face down on top the the deck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      To the spectator it appears as if you simply shown the aces and placed them face down on top. Now double undercut the top two cards to the bottom and you are set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
