You seem like a guy who would enjoy the magic of Michael Vincent's Card Material. Study his work, and you will make big progress. He is a great Sleight of hand artist, as well as having good presentation, and enjoys the classics.
At least Snap Deal is referenced in the description. It doesn't actually say it's taught, but I imagine it is part of the referenced "Dealing Effects". Perhaps someone here knows for sure.
I wouldn't recommend that. He's an amazing magician, but for whatever reason, that lecture was very dry and difficult to learn from. It shouldn't be viewed by beginners.
That's fine. Only issue with books is they sometimes have a hard time conveying what things should look like. You don't have to go crazy, but every now and then, study something from one of the sources I mentioned.
