D.9.1- After whatever normal shuffling you do, you are required to do three "riffle shuffles" (this is the standard shuffle technique of dividing the deck in half and then placing the ends of the two halves together and rapidly interleaving them as they fall together). [Tournament Rules 1996/10/01]

D.9.2- Your opponent is always entitled to shuffle your deck before each duel begins if they want to. They get the right to a final shuffle if they want it. [Mirage, Page 46] This is to prevent people from possibly stacking the deck. Usually people just settle for "cutting the deck".

D.9.3- Your opponent is always entitled to shuffle or cut your deck after any shuffle during a game. They may not use this opportunity to view cards in your deck. [Tournament Rules 1996/10/01]
