An over exaggerated stripper deck

A stripper deck (or stripper pack) is a specially constructed deck of playing cards. In fact, the secret in this deck is so subtle, the spectator can believe that the magician is using a random deck. But when a random card is chosen and is placed back in the deck, the magician can just "strip" the chosen card and reveal in any way. This secret of the deck also makes tricks used with it mostly straightforward and it is said to fail any exposure of sleight of hand. This deck is known to both magicians and card players alike, especially poker players who specialize in cheating, and is not related to the similarly named stripped deck. Some magicians prefer to call this deck a 'Wizard Deck' as a way of not giving away the secret.
