Beautiful photo! Thank you for posting it! Notice how Kaps has spread the deck fairly with wide open hands for the selection of the card. Notice also how his left pinky is keeping the spread from misaligning.
Roberto Giobbi reminds us in his books to keep your hands in an open position to suggest fairness and innocence for the selection and return of cards. |
