FARO TRIVIA MODE ON
I am not sure what you mean, but perhaps you're talking about the 6 groups of 8 cards that cycle through out faros? The charts were first described in Expert Card Technique if I am not mistaken.

FARO TRIVA MODE ON...
Seems to me there's a whole bunch of equations that describe Faro shuffles.... as can be seen here . So please consider the content of 'The Mathematics of Perfect Shuffles' by Diaconis, Graham and Kantor as my entry.

Am I missing something here? What's everyone going on about, for some kind of answer to a puzzle?
It sounds a bit like there's a challenge/contest of some sort - if so, could you tell us what it is? |

FARO TRIVA MODE ON...
In faro .... 2k ≡ 1 (mod N + 1). Out Faro.. 2k ≡ 1 (mod N – 1).

Oh, I see. Do you mean this thread? http://www.themagiccafe.com/forums/viewt......&forum=2
It might have been helpful to link that here, too. Personally, I think you're going to have to be a little more specific by what you mean by "mathematical formula" - that's too ambiguous to know what you want it to be describing about the Faro. You'll also have to define *which* straddle you're thinking about, since it's possible to do them in a wide variety of ways... |

Bill Citino and Steven Keyl's reviews hit the nail on the head. The passion that Nicolas has for all things Faro is infectious. If you are like me, have developed a dependable in and out Faro, and are looking for one piece of work to unleash your faro shuffle on the world this is it. Nicolas teaches the principles and effects very well. Scripting is provided in an easily read format (italicised text for scripting, a great approach.)
As have already been mentioned the correction strategies for 25/27 27/25 cut misses are wonderful. "You find it", "Otero Sandwich revisited" and the section utilising the Free Cut/Faro section is well as Nicolas puts it; "free cut + faro = little miracle " Again it should be pointed out that the faro itself is not taught. What are taught are killer routines and effects that are very strong and, beyond the ability to do a faro, there are no difficult sleights. Thank you Nicolas, I can't wait for volume 2 (and 3) If it's Faro and Matts Kjellstrom likes it = purchase. G |

Just had a first read through of my 'prize'
There are certainly some things here that are new to me. Getting a selected card to any specified position in the deck with just one shuffle was a very interesting discovery. This is something that must have far reaching benefits for as yet unexplored effects.

Hey Geeraff I'm glad you enjoyed your read and yeah I got a big passion on the faro since I believe it has unique properties and you can achieve things you cant with other techniques and mostly because its a SHUFFLE I just need to shuffle and magic happens
thank you for your thoughts have a great day !!!!
