Shuffling chips



Posted Fri Mar 26, 2004 11:46 am GMT by Junk Pocket
So Ive been practicing alot to be able to shuffle chips and I can do it pretty well but not 100% effortlessly like the pros. Occasionally I lose a chip out the bottom.

Would you do it at a live table? Or would that scream beginner? At a casino, I dont care about my buddies home games

just practice some more and you'll get the hang of it after about an hour or two. after that, try to learn the "front-to-back", "chip-roll", "chip-drop" or the "chip-twirl". i even have a little rutine using all of the above Wink


here's a great site for learning chip- and cardtricks: http://www.21ace.com/poker_chip_tricks.html

I like when you throw a chip edge-first onto the table just in front of your stack and it bounces up and lands on top of the stack. That's pretty easy to do, depending on the table.

I would definately do it at the casino...just start with a stacks of 3 or 4...

I found it to be 100% easier to try it on the casino tables...

Now what I like to do is use stacks of 6 or 8 and each stack is a different color...

I shuffle them until they are back in stacks of the same color...
