How to do Greek Shift Card Trick
The Greek shift unlike all the other card tricks is a way to control a number of cards and shift them on the top or bottom of the deck. By shifting cards in this way you seem to bring in a little more fancy touch in your performance. This trick actually enhances your performance whether you are playing or showing a trick! In other words, you control a number of cards and shift it with the help of your fingers using one hand only instead of two and it looks facinating. However, you have to make a break between the selected cards and the rest of the deck. You simply divide the deck in two parts and interchange their positions. This may seem to be difficult initially but as you will practice it will be easier to perform.
