With the push-off second deal, I think that the right hand thumb action can be exaggerated more. At the moment, it just looks like you're picking at the cards.

Adding more 'swipe' to the right thumb motion may sell the illusion more... it creates a visual retention of sorts. Make the taking thumb actually slide over the two cards (as one) in their entirety. In fact, the thumb should lightly touch the cards throughout this action as not to split them... At the minute your right thumb's sort of just sitting at the front corner of deck, instead of flowing from the back and then to the front... It's a hard action to describe. Hopefully you know what I'm getting at.

If you're unsure, check out some videos of Richard Turner/Steve Forte/Jason England doing their push-off second deals and pay special attention to the taking thumb's action. AMcD will no doubt offer some better advice... I'm hardly an expert... yet.

Oh yeah and with the stud seconds... is it just me, or are the fingers of your left (deck holding hand) randomly flashing around when you swoop in for the take. If so, I don't think that should be happening... Maybe to some extent in a stud bottom deal, but not a second.

Maybe I'm getting confused with the taking hand, it's hard to tell from the video. Fingers flying everywhere and what not. Plus... it's late here .

I do my studs like that so my deal is consistant throughout my bottom studs too.

Thanks. The dealing looked fine to me.

Thanks David. Very nice. Wish I was as capable.

Very nice moves. I enjoyed watching, had to turn that "music" down though.

Thanks for posting the vids.
