You're correct of course, Thomas. Unfortunately, there are some who are convinced that if it is old, it can't be good, and that innovation is always an improvement.
Vernon's original is near perfect.


Okay, What's a better use of the count in routine? And what's a better routine with four cards where they turn over?.
Maybe folks like Jazz Aces and the Asher Twist.

I agree with Ruperts thoughts on this, the method isn't great for the effect.
The less the cards are handled/flipped the better. As Rupert pointed out, the intended effect is that of single cards turning over magically. Ideally there should be no visible actions at all between each revelation - the only reason there is, is because the method requires it.

Going by Vernons own philosophy of eliminating all unnecessary actions, a method which either cut down the amount of procedure, or eliminated it entirely, would be far superior.
