[[Magician (illusion)|Magicians]], [[sleight-of-hand|sleight-of-hand artists]], and [[Card sharp|card cheats]] employ various methods of shuffling whereby the deck appears to have been shuffled fairly, when in reality one or more cards (up to and including the entire deck) stays in the same position.  It is also possible, though generally considered very difficult, to "stack the deck" (place cards into a desirable order) by means of one or more riffle shuffles; this is called "riffle stacking".

Both performance magicians and card sharps regard the [[Zarrow shuffle]] and the Push-Through-False-Shuffle as particularly effective examples of the false shuffle. In these shuffles, the entire deck remains in its original order, although spectators think they see an honest riffle shuffle.<ref name=phantom>{{cite book
