Bottom and second deal improvement

I'm not much of a bottom deal kinda guy so I can't give you any advice on that aspect, however, I love the second deal and practice it daily.

And with that being said, your dealing hand looks a bit cramped and unnatural doing that strike seconds and you need more movement of your hands to cover the action.

I'm a fan of the push off second deal, they just seem more smooth and natural looking to me.

Thanks. How successful are you at it? So far it will fool all but the most observant of my friends and family. Any idea on how long it might take to fool them too.
