hi
im trying to find out some card stacks. anyone know which 1s or good and where to get them from?
cheers

The best one is the truely random one. Just take a pack of cards, riffle shuffle them about 10-20 times and learn it.

You may also want to consider the Aronson stack http://www.simonaronson.com if you want some prebuilt routines with it. It is as good as random, but you save a few shuffles of your deck

If you want a formula stack, try the Osterlind stack (explained on his DVD "Mind Mysteries" Vol. 2). It's not as good as random, but sufficiently good to survive any amount of scrutiny any layman could put forward.

I'd back up the Aronson stack, it really appears random (well, itis random, ut it is a random order that has been thought about a bit!) and has many things built into it. It does require memory work though, there is not pattern to be learnt as there is with the BCS
