Speaking of marked decks: stay tuned for a new marking system being published these days - it's an extremely clever approach for those who don't have eagle eyes or need to work at low light conditions.
It's possible to code so much (predecessor card, successor card, stack number etc.) with only a few marks, it's almost scary!

The new marking system being published these days is my "Low Vision Marking System". The "Low Vision Marking System" is applied to the Bicycle Rider Back 808 deck.
A Sharpie and a Bicycle Rider Back 808 deck is a very efficient and inexpensive way to mark a deck for your needs ... even you have less than perfect vision or need glasses. A blockout toolbox for marking cards has been developed. The marked deck can be prepared in less than one hour. The development focused on good discernibility for magicians with impaired vision. By combining the described methods, it is possible to mark the card itself, its stack number, the preceding and the succeeding cards. http://www.lybrary.com/low-vision-markin......528.html |

Also check Pete McCabe's PM Card Marking System. A great 70+ page book with an easily viewed but deceptive marking system using a sharply. Additionally there are tons of great routines.

I suspect that most people here know that the BCS is a full-deck, sequential stack; they are just making the observation that there exists a range of additional material that can be performed if such a stack is also marked.

IMHO, this is the best algorithmic stack out there.
