1. Bring right hand over the deck
2. Contact back of deck with right thumb
3. Tilt the deck back toward yourself (hiding the action) as your right thumb secures however many cards are necessary
4. Wait a beat or two, then do your lift
Easy, reliable and it works in front of audiences - harder techniques aren't necessarily better folks.
Even easier - push off two cards with the left thumb and pull them back, getting a break udner them in the process. Fine if you can reveal the top three cards of the deck. Easy to do whilst in the flow of your presentation.
Pink counting is all well and good, but I like to keep life simple.
Cheers,
David.
