    I've seen a longer version of this where he gets into tracking shuffles and other techniques beyond just keeping track of the cards left. He doesn't call the techniques by their names but he describes then while demonstrating. What is seen in the video looks fishy. Lots of high cards coming out on the round he hit 16v6 and lots came out after he did it. It really doesn't fit well with any technique.

    Like any good magician, he's NOT telling you how the TRICK was done; his explanations are often part of the misdirection.
