When you realize that the best stuff can be done with the easiest and simplest sleights or even without much sleight of hand at all.
amen my brethren. i kill with nothing but a backslip force, double lift, key card, over hand shuffle control, and occasional glide in my repertoire
i've tried more complex stuff, but. nothing has the same effect as that stuff. not any of the passes i've learned. or the fancy triple cuts.sure i'll use them as outs when some ***hole says the cards on top. now bottom, still bottom.
top again.
then i do a classic pass, and a triple cut. "HA! NOW WHERE IS IT PUNK????"
sorry i was just reviewing my day and how i did that. i even managed to overhand shuffle control my way out of one of those situations. it was an eye opening moment.
"the sixes are on the bottom, shuffle again"
*over hand shuffle running last 8 or so cards*
"hows that?"
"ok now do the trick"
*inner victory dance*
you heard me right. squelched a particular heckler with the first chapter of royal road!
EDIT: sorry really wanted to share. and i got on a roll.
