1) Go there: http://www.arnoldmcdonald.org/code/main.php?p=6200000
2) Bottom of the page "Drills" section. It's just a few basic second deal drills I use every day. There are many others exercises, if you want'em, ask. I've made my best to keep a good quality and a reasonable size in bytes at the same time, but it's 2'34", so... Many people have asked me to "share" some of the videos I do for mates. OK. From now on, I'll keep you informed here. Enjoy. |

Thanks guys, I appreciate the kind words.
To be honest, shooting videos is easy; getting them into a nice frame, offering a nice presentation... is another story! In a few months I should be more proficient with all those softwares and it should be much more entertaining and well presented. I might get a better cam too, which would allow me better pictures and no to stay close to a webcam using limited and restricted movements. Be patient . Thanks again for all your comments. It's gonna help me for the next ones. |

Arnold,
These drills are great. When I normaly practice I just practice consecutive (just to get a feel and rhythm going), some seconds to a specific player seat, and random seconds. I can see these drills can train/help me to be more alert, more prepared, and ready when a deuce is needed. I will definitely be using these to better my seconds. Thank you for this... |

@andre
"Breaking" the rhythm is very important with deuces. Not always you have to deal consecutive seconds. Here are the main cases you might face: 1) You deal the punch. Punched cards come on top of the deck randomly. You then must respond on the fly. Actually, depending the method you use, you may "start" to think dealing a deuce one card before the one you plan to deal, because you feel the punch in advance thru the cards. Whether you want to deal the punched card is then up to you. For instance, it may require too many consecutive seconds before you deal the card to you and you could decide to give up with that one and wait for the next one. 2) You peek. My favorite. You glimpse the top one and decide what to do with it. Of course, in some cases you may have to deal consecutive seconds, but in hold'em for instance, say you're the dealer and the flop is to come. You peek the "burned" card, and if you want to use it for the flop, just one second is necessary. I suppose it's the same case for Blackjack dealers. 3) You have to fix some problems. For instance during stacking. Say you miss one spacer. The you'll have to deal some seconds. More often than not it's one or two. To me, practicing dealing 15 deuces in a row has little value. It's much more important being able to deal on the fly, all of a sudden. Again, it's my opinion. |

When they are available. I allow them to be downloaded just a number of times (usually 100, sometimes 200 or 250). When it's done, well, it's over. Once in a while, I set them public again though.
If I know you, you can become a member and watch them as many times as you like. |

Crap! Missed the drills. Tried to watch them at work when you first posted them but they were blocked at my work.
Anyway, I'd love to see the drills if you ever post them again. Paul |

Just to ligthen the atmosphere a bit (and also to celebrate my very soon first booklet !), I added a faro stack for Hold'Em. 7 players, the lucky player being the 4th one, 2 shuffles only. Yes, crappy Aviators, just for the fun of it!
As usual: http://www.arnoldmcdonald.org/code/main.php?p=6200000 Enjoy. (And feel free to post comment if you feel like so. Me, I don't mind critics). |

Will this booklet be coming out under your real name? Or will you do like erdnase and use a pseudonym?
Like... popcalinda... perhaps? |

Actually, now that I think of it, that would be a great idea... just make sure that If you use an alter ego to support your position on the forums you don't get in the habit of letting him always post directly behind your posts with comments like "Great!", "You da Man", and "I can't wait". Get in the habit of at least waiting a few posts and try not to use the same broken english and grammar mistakes.
Oh what am I saying, you would never stoop so low as to take such advice and do such a dirty trick... I take it all back (right after I click Submit Reply). |
