What is the most efficient way to replace a card palmed in the left hand after a bottom palm? I haven't come across any replacement suitable for my needs - quick, efficient and stealthy. Thanks!

Are you looking for a way to replace a card to the top? Or what? If I got it right, you wanna use this to control the bottom card to the top invisibly?
What I do is just put the deck back on top and do a false overhand shuffle to get it back on top. Or you could just pass the card to the top.
No, I'm looking to replace a card from a bottom palm, as I stated. I do not want to control it to the top, but just replace it to the bottom. For example, handling the deck out to be shuffled, and replacing the left hand palmed card on the bottom.

The best tool in this situation is misdirection. Also, try to adapt the replacing action to all arround square up.
From a left-handed palm to get the card on bottom.... I just do what looks like a squaring action with my left hand, moving the left hand forward and rotating it slightly counter clockwise. I also angle the deck up a little more so if the spectator is looking down at the deck, they have less chance of seeing it.
hope this helps.

Sebaman, I do not know how a gamblers cop would help, as it's more of an alternative to the palm I'm describing.
zeanator3581, thanks for the input, I'll try it out.

There is a great palm to bottom of the deck replacement in By Forces Unseen by Earnest Earick (written by stephen minch).
The trick in the book is called Cross Purposes. It's the only replacement I use and maybe it will suit you.

If I think I know what you're talking about just bring your hand back to the deck normaly, theres no big deal. I do it all of the time to get the card back to position. Not too hard.
I use a gambler's cop if I plan on replacing it then I quickly bring the deck to the hand to replace it, or if not possible, I just dribble it back on. But I never use an erdnase bottom palm if I plan on replacing it. Come to think of it, I always cop it out if I'm executing a bottom palm of some sort..
