card shuffle
Randomizing the deck
A card shuffle is any technique for randomizing the order of playing cards in a deck.
Common methods include the riffle shuffle, where two halves of the deck are interlaced, and the overhand shuffle, where cards are transferred in small packets from one hand to the other.
Give the deck a good shuffle before dealing.
The term also applies to digital randomization algorithms in card games.
