| Description: | "The Shuffler." Card expert Professor Collins demonstrates fancy shuffling and other tricks w/ cards. CU he cuts cards, sticks ends of the 2 piles together and bends them into an arch held in one hand. He removes his finger which as been pressing on the top, and the cards shuffle into a flat deck again. MCU he spreads cards out along his outstretched arm then tosses them in the air and catches them in one hand. Next he cuts deck in 2 , sets the 2 stacks on his hand, tosses them up & catches them. MCU Collins moving cards from one hand to other like an accordian. Slow motion repeat of some of his tricks. Collins spreads cards out on table in long row, then turns them over so that they fall like dominos. Always an impressive bit to make one look like a real card shark. MS Collins tossing single cards up so that they spin round, going in a loop & coming back to him. | |
