Sufficient Shuffling is referenced in the rules, but as some of the recent threads have made me realize, can be a little tricky to define and...
...I really don't know if I can define it either. So I'll swallow my pride and as others, what are the various legitimate shuffling styles, the illegitimate (or illegal) ones to watch out for, and the "gray" areas ones that either are legal but frowned upon, or where two, competent judges might give opposite rulings on.
I myself favor pile shuffling, but that's usually hard to fit into the middle of a game and far too many people either don't know or just don't perform to some other shuffle before or after to avoid intentional or unintentional weaving/stacking. My time is short so I'll let someone else hammer out the details since for all I know, I've been doing it 'wrong' myself all these years.
