You are sitting at a blackjack table and you have won a stack of chips during the last plays. The dealer ran out of cards and has to shuffle his six decks, which takes a while. This is the ideal moment to impress with a few chip flourishes. Of course, all of these moves can also be executed with coins rather than chips. You will learn: The Pickup Move Roll Down Double Cut Shuffle on a soft surface Shuffle on a hard surface Shuffling tall stacks The Twirl The Triple Twirl The Reverse Twirl Knuckle Roll The Pullover The video clips on the disc are in MPEG format accessible through a HTML frontend, which means that they are viewable on pretty much any computer including PCs and Macs. You can also choose the downloadable version which uses lower quality WMV files. The video quality is still adequate to learn these moves, but they are not quite as crisp as the MPEG clips on the disc. However you also save quite a bit of money and you can download the zip file immediately after paying. 1st edition 2004 Format/Media Options HTML | by download HTML | on disc (+6.00) 14.00 USD Page 5/582 Lybrary.com Catalog 01/2008 Scarne Compilation disc type: USB MEMORY John Scarne You get a 1GByte USB flash memory stick loaded with all 15 John Scarne ebooks, and as bonus you get the extremely rare first issue of John Scarne's 13 issue running newsletter.
