That's risky depending on how adamant they are about cutting. If they're cutting a random spot each time, at 10 cuts there's an ~18% chance they've split the two cards up. Your odds are 50/50 at 35 cuts.

    Wow I love that you did the math! That's really surprising it gets to 50% relatively quickly how neat. I can definitely say no one ever cut more than 10 times when I tried it but I can certainly see that happening if someone wanted to have a laugh with it
