Hello I need some Addvice for Riffle Stacking cause I try to Stack 4 Aces RRSRC (Casinostyle ) in a 6 Handed Game with 2 Aces on the Flop and one Card between the Aces on the Flop and the Problem that I have is that I mostly end up with 2 Cards in between the 2 last Aces in the Deck. I try to riflle ace and than xCard another Ace again X Card Ace and than 5 Cards in the First Shuffle but in 85% I End with 2 Cards for The Burn Card or the Card in betwenn the Aces on the Flop(mostly the Cards between the Aces) and I have no Idea how to fix that without breaking the Rhythem to much. I hope someone understand what I mean. Is there a Drill for dropping one Card at the Time or something I can do ?

More information would help in guiding you. What is your source, Marlo, Fulve?
How long have you been attempting, a week, month or more? This takes enormous amounts of practice and will take a long time to accomplish. A good resource. GO HERE: https://store.theory11.com/products/riff......-england GO HERE: https://richardturner52.com/shop/the-sci......package/ |

Thank you for the Links and your Reply, but I know the Jason England Videos and they are one of many Sources were I Learned Riffle Stacking and I practice maybe 2 or 3 Years I guess, but I mostly try to Stack 2 or 3 Cards in a five Handed Game but the Problem I have, is to Stack Single Cards.I always tried to Stack 2 Aces like ace 5 Cards ace 5 Cards. That is not my Problem.
The Problem I have is when I stop with 7 Cards on the right Half and 3 Cards on the Left, were the Aces are. When I try to Drop 1 Card from the right half of the Deck, I often Times end up with 2 Cards insteed of one. Im looking for some kind of Advice, for Thump Placement or a Drill to have more Controll over the Deck and how the Cards Drop during the Shuffle I know Riffle Stacking is not easy and Takes Time to Master and I know its mostly a Matter of Feeling, but I'm thankfull for every Help I can get |

You've been working on riffle stacking for 2 or 3 years and don't have it down yet?
Then up your practice time to at least 3 hours per day, every day. Come back in a year or two with a report on how you're making out.

You understand me wrong I have Riffle Stacking Down but not the Stack I try to Archive I want to Stack 4 of a Kind with 2 Cards on the Flop(Pair) and one Card between the Pair and I want to do it in Casinostyle Shuffle Riffle Riffle Strip Riffle Cut
I can Stack 2 to 3 Cards on the left Pack and up to 6 Cards on the Right Half in between the 3 Cards that is no Problem The only Problem I have now is when I want to Stack a Single Card with another Single Card with 5 Cards for the next Shuffle I explain Again Ace XCard Ace XCard Ace 5 XCards And than 5 on Top on the last Ace in the next Shuffle than Strip Riffle Cut ( no Stacking in the last Riffle just the first two SHuffles are the Stack) And the Problem I have is that l often End up with one Card to much for the Pair on the Flop or the Burncard Yes I do it like 2 or 3 Years but like I said I just stacked bigger Slugs with 5 or 6 Cards and never Single Card on Single Card with a following 5 Card Slug on Top I hope I made myself clear now |

Your overtly detailed explanation changes absolutely nothing.
Practice more. Report back in a couple of years with how you're doing (or not).

This is what I do. But I am a duffer (no talent hack).
1 Use less cards. As little as nine cards. 2 Slow down. Then, build up speed as you hit the right card. Jason England goes over this in his video. 3 Use a different key card. IE - red for key card, blue for the null cards. Use a plastic card for the key card. This will help visualize and feel the card when you riffle. |

You are welcome sir.
I highly recommend reviewing Jason England's excellent video on this topic. Which is a major source of advancing my skills. Some times we hit an impassible wall and even someone who is not expert may help enough to slip over the obstacle. Please update us on your results. Rotenburg is beautiful, you are blessed. |

A good drill is to split the deck at 26/26 and practice performing a true, one at a time, perfect shuffle, alternating from each side from bottom to top.
Do this 4 or 5 times and then do the same thing, but drop doubles. Do this 5 times. Then go to triples (the math won't work out completely even but it'll work until the very last few cards) and then do 4 at a time. Do this set of drills often and you'll develop the touch to confidently drop singles/doubles/triples/quads in a relatively short period of time. It also helps to bevel the packets towards you a small amount while riffle stacking. Look at this video of Darwin Ortiz riffle stacking and you'll see what I mean. I think Darwin did it a bit too much, but he was certainly on the right track - it helps to increase the size of the spaces between the cards as you riffle. That helps your drop accuracy. You can freeze the image at 11:03 and see how much he's beveling the deck backwards as he shuffles. Do it as much as you need to initially and then start to use less and less of a bevel as you improve. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LOeWbhTtYfM Jason

Oh Wow thx for answering my Post Mr England I realy appericate it also thx for the Link on The Darwin Ortiz Video but I guess you mean I should freeze the Video at around 3:03 cause that's were he is doing the Stacking Routine and the Video is just 11:04 m long but I understand what you mean there
He also does a perfect Riffle Shuffle on the Ace Cutting Routine and I tried to Archive a perfect Riffle Shuffle in the past cause I watched Nikita Kemerovskys Stacking Videos and he use that Technique all the Time and imo He is the absolut best when it comes to Stacking ( from People who make Videos of course but he is perfect) So your Drill sounds hard but I will try it will start of slow with a fresh deck @ Jerry I'm not from Rothenburg ob der Tauber who is a beautifull old German Town here in Germany I'm from Rotenburg an der Fulda and this Town is famous for a Guy called Armin Meiwes just Google his Name his Story was in the News all around the World maybe 15-20 Years ago and its one of the Absolut SICKEST Storys EVER and I'm not joking when I say this the Rammstein Song Mein Teil is baded on his Story |

A perfect Riffle Shuffle is even harder with a new Deck cause its so stiff

My thumbs are now raw from trying this drill all weekend.
I wonder if there are any threads on hand lotion...

Turns out there are some threads on lotion. If anyone was wondering. I know the anticipation was stressing us all out.
