[Blindtlk] Shuffling Cards

[Brandon A. Olivares]

It’s a moot point anyway as these are not braille. I have another form of identification for them so there’s no concern about rubbing out dots.

But still, what is your method of choice? Could you describe it?

I’d like to know at least how overhand works, if it does a thorough shuffle. If you think there’s another good method, please let me know.

Peace,
Brandon
