Overhand Shuffle
Overhand ShuffleLV 3
Unattributed Cardistry

Overhand Shuffle is one of the easiest and most common ways to shuffle a pack of cards. It's a great shuffle for magicians to use since lay people are already familiar with it, and because there are some great controls and false shuffles that can be done while shuffling the deck in this manner. The shuffle is commonly used in western countries. References The description above is adapted from the 52Kards video, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A0J_487VquE

Strip Cut, also known among dealers as the Box Cut, is a professional table shuffle used as an official part of the shuffling procedure in competitive card games such as poker tournaments. The move begins by lifting a substantial portion of the deck with the non-dominant hand, then systematically stripping off small packets onto a pile on the table.

Under Pressure
Under PressureLV 4
Michael Vile

Under Pressure is a fan flourish in which the cards flow smoothly from one hand to the other, creating a graceful wave-like motion. The cards are spread in the same way as in a Pressure Fan. However, once the fan reaches an angle of approximately 45–90 degrees, the deck is no longer rotated. Instead, pressure is continuously applied while the cards are gradually released from the fingers at the corner, allowing them to flow smoothly into the non-dominant hand, which gathers the returning cards.

Phobos Deimos
Phobos DeimosLV 4
Noel Heath

Phobos Deimos is a move that revolves around floating cards and rotations. The cardist must first angel one card with one hand then hold another singular card in the lower hand. Then, both cars are displayed outwards towards the viewer. The deck is then rotated, with the card being "angeled" on the top thumb staying roughly in the same position. Then, the angeled card is moved downards along with the bottom hand moving the lower card upwards.
