Means a lot to hear something like this from you doc =)
your cold deck video was one of the first "cheating/gambling sleight" videos I saw and it is still a pleasure and inspiration to watch |

Awesome push off. I like the Miller shift too. I can't critique it, I haven't got around to learning it myself yet. Maybe jjsanvert can chime in with this one. He pulls off an incredible Miller shift in his video "The Advantage Player".
Good work, Zac

Cool and quite dramatic.

Wonderful work, I'm jealous. It's great to see this. You have so much potential, I hope that more of the proffessional guys aroun dhere are able to comment on your technique. You will go far.

Joey your ping pong shift is excellent, the illusion is great.
Now regarding your Charlie Miller shift, you're doing this like a grade A magician which needs to be improved upon. How? Stop picking up the deck and looking at all the bottom card(s) before you place the deck in your hand to deal. You think if I was playing cards with you that I would let you look at the bottom stock? Hell no. This is a great advantage in playing cards, knowing what and what not to play or to disband. I have a friend by the name of Doug Edwards who demonstrates this Charlie Miller Spin Pass just like you and I told him the same thing. Eliminate that looking at the bottom of the deck pick up and you will have a perfect gambling shift for the card table. Take care, Respectfully, Doc |

Thank you for your comment Doc, highly appreciated =)
makes perfect sense the reason I added this sliding action was because I could never believe that the pass would work no matter how much I tried, the visible spinning action of the top packet always disturbed me so I added this extra motion to cover it, the downside of course is what you mentioned in your post I guess I'll just go back to the original handling of the shift, without looking at the bottom card again thank you for your comment =) |

If you do the spinning action fast enough no one will see it except for you. If you still see it and you're not satisfied when you look in the mirror then just add a little more cover by using all 4 fingers close together with no windows and you or no one else will see the move.
Take care, Doc |

Or maybe if you do the shift on top of a cut card, the picking up and looking at the bottom card wouldn't be as problematic?

The bottom card is still flashed to the players at the table which is wrong and the photos of charlie miller show the move the wrong way with the bottom card being shown to the opposite player which is wrong. Do it as I told you to, just use more fingers as cover and speed up the spin action if necessary. Doc |

Hey Joey here's a really brief clip of me doing the Spin Pass when I was with Sal, Rod the Hop and Steve Forte in Vegas. It's nothing special about it but you see how I cover it.
