no.
Well...I guess it's possible to do a hindu shuffle, as long as you took great care.


But .. why would you want to shuffle an ID?

Either switch the deck in, force the name of a card , or learn one of the hundreds of triumph style effects out there, that reach the one card reversed conclusion.

Yes.
I have people shuffle an ID quite a bit :lol:
Of course, most forget to take it out of the invisible box first; or take the invisible elastic band off.


Anyway, more serious answer; yes, it is possible to shuffle an ID, overhand is probably the best way to go.
But as Dale says, why would you want to? what situation is calling for this?
Help me get to Blackpool 2012 please?
Take a look at this thread and be a nice guy

You might be able to perform a haymow shuffle if the ID is constructed from a stripper deck with one half turned. Perform the shuffle and cut the deck at the step to pull it back into the original order. I understand why you'd shuffle it, however. The idea is that the ID has been in the case all the time and that you haven't been near it.
