Outstanding as always Joey, absolutely seamless!

That grip, that grip!!!

Nicely done as usual. Smooth, clean and without any hesitation.

Plus, I think the grip adds a certain amount of elegance to the shuffle.

Sorry Arnold, that I keep disappointing you on a regular basis

@JFS: Joey, you have got to stop fooling me like that. It's embarrassing.

Nice work.

Excellent as ever!

Thanks for sharing

Both vids are excellent Joey, I especially like your handling during the top stock control!

Not to detract from your nice work, but do you ever do demos with bridged sized plastic cards with white borders, either Kem or Copag. Seems like most demonstrators are limited to doing demos with poker sized paper cards which, except for some amateur level private games, is not realistic.

Just a thought.

Also have you tried any other base deal grip other than the Erdnase type grip you use. I know many enthusiast like to mimic Forte who uses that grip, but have you effectively used any other.

Also, do you demo you any full deck controls like pull throughs or strip outs?

But once again, always nice work.

Thanks and nicely done. You do beautiful work. Good thing you are an honest guy or we would all be in trouble.

@JFX: You have a very nice smooth bottom deal using two different grips. You also have naturally skillful hands and have no doubt given considerable thought to arrive as your bottom deal mastery and technique. So here is my question since I know how long it took me to get to your level initially and I basically have skillful hands also and have no problem practicing for hours per day if necessary.

Once you had decided to master the bottom deal, and once you had decided on the grip and technique to work on, from that point on how long did it take you to master that bottom deal method to a level in which you felt you had mastered it sufficiently well to deceive for demonstration purposes. In other words, happy and confident in your mastery of the bottom deal...its smoothness and deceptiveness.

Yes, I know guys like you and me probably are never completely satisfied and are always tweaking and trying new methods. But that aside...your initial mastery of the bottom deal to the point you felt you had it.

Also, how much time per day or week did you devote to the practice of attaining this mastery?
