There is a huge quantity of shuffling techniques, among which the most typical technique is a riffle shuffle .

Riffling alone has its flaws because the cards in the top section of the deck could remain in the same position if the deck is not cut evenly.

For the above reasons, a proper shuffle combines Riffling with one more technique called Strip shuffle. The strip technique represents the removing of small groups of cards from the top (or bottom) of the deck and placed on the contrary opposite side (bottom-to-top or top-to-bottom). The combining of these two techniques (riffle & strip) and provide really good randomization of the deck. Generally dealers at casinos use this method and perform several strips between three or more riffles. That is why it was named 'Casino Dealer's Combination'.
