      @@Kandecid Mike Duncan's French Revolution season on the Revolutions podcast and his book on the Marquis de Lafayette ("Hero of Two Worlds") are two pretty easy-to-"read" overviews of the French Revolution. I particularly like the Lafayette book: I love reading about those cosmopolitan historical figures that seem like they had a hand in pretty much every important political event that happened in their lifetime.

    bridged cards are reliant upon the mark being unaware of the con - EVERYONE who is unaware will cut the deck at the bridge because the deck naturally cuts there. It's the same principle as if you grabbed a handful of candies and one of the candies is barely clinging on; you dont remove that candy because "You didn't grab it with intent"; it's just part of the group.
    It's all based upon people taking moves for granted. You don't think about cutting a deck, just as much as you don't think about someone grabbing their beer bottle by the neck, then by the top of the label, then the bottom of the label, then gripping the whole bottle - yet that's 4 distinct signals.

    • @ghizghuth2088
      @ghizghuth2088 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yeah, but cutting the deck is supposed to be a way to prevent cheating, so wouldn't having an obvious place where the deck cuts push you towards wanting to cut it in another unobvious place?

      They could of had.more mechanics. Sacrifice gold to lower sus meter. Making it a close game giving him a ace king and the others a ace queen so they don't feel they got cheated but lost fairly. The fact you can get away with giving them the same exact cards and mother fuckee pulls out pocket aces 3 times I a row. Idc you only played 4 matches and ran.

      keep in mind, the mouse controls are fumbly as shit right now. im normally not one to defend NL's playing because while it is pog it is often frustrating, but this is a CORE problem with the mouse and keyboard set-up, so it's a large chance that early fumble was not his fault. he did it successfully before, in practice,after all.

    • @Terrible_name
      @Terrible_name 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      @@kalithoulouse2231 While this is true, even assuming the controls were tight and perfect he was doing the wrong motion (side to side, or repeatedly up and down , when the correct motion is one slow continuous movement straight up) and starting on a delay after the left half of the deck falls (as opposed to starting at the same time, and just shuffling the right half more slowly so it ends a little later).
      he did it "successfully" in practice and even he said it looked jank (a side effect of starting the right half late, which makes the person you're cheating suspicious) and had forgotten the motion by the time it was put into use after practice.

      You’d be surprised. For example, in the yugioh community, the indented cut is a real thing, as well as the false ruffle shuffle. The people that do this practice a lot to make it look very natural. And even with a bit of practice you can do the ineffective shuffle.
      Obviously the game makes it more obvious for the player, but in reality, people who do this have a lot more skill in making it look real

    False riffles are usually used for only a card or two. You'll also want to give it at least one false shuffle while maintaining the top stack, so you "loose" the top card to avoid sus. There's a way to shuffle a single card to the top of the deck without looking sus, the stack he wants just isn't really possible.
