Welcome to the Café sir!! For us from other countries, rather poor in magic, it's a real great opportunity to chat with such a so knowledgable person as you are. Thanks that you are being here!!

What kind of pass has the most chances being acceptable from the spectator eye? There is a huge field on that kind of sleight, so what would you suggest?

Thanks for your time, sir.
All the best

Vasillis my Friend!

Where have you been, you tricky devil...?!?!

The pass that is most acceptable from a spectators
point of view is the one he does not see!

Agreed! And an excellent response.

Any suggestions on shade for, say the Herrmann Turnover Pass (not that it really needs much, I admit).

Kind regards,

The usual advice for covering the Herrmann pass is to keep the right hand as flat as possible so that those on the performer's left can't look into the arch and see the action. Personally, I find this a bit artificial and only use a turnover pass when people are in front or to the right where there is ample cover from a naturally arched right hand.

I have what I consider to be an excellent cover that's based on a Herb Zarrow idea.
I think Mark Ennis has seen a video... perhaps he could give an opinion..

Yes, Steve has some fantastic touches on the turnover pass that is actually more practical (angle friendly) and with less movement from the fingers and hands other than the movement that would be necessary to turn a pack of cards over.

This should be the first of his 18 sleights that he releases.

(By the way, if you do begin the subscription, definitely count me in).
