Syllabus: Advanced Slug Controls
🕑 Added 2025-05-07 23:52:46 +0000 UTCThis month we will be learning some advanced slug and stock controls. Previously, the approach was basically: leave the required cards on top (or on the bottom) during a riffle shuffle, and then do a full deck false cut. But far more nuanced techniques exist for keeping the 4 aces on top (or on the bottom), and there are subtleties to the shuffling techniques we've already learned. We're now getting into legitimate card table sleight-of-hand, which is a new chapter (both literally and figuratively!). Make sure you have a close up mat for these techniques, and be sure to review the true strip cut as well as basic riffle shuffle mechanics.
This coming week, we'll learn the "practice" of these crimp techniques.
The subsequent week, we'll learn the "theory" behind these crimp techniques.
The final week of the month, I'll hold a members only livestream where you can ask questions about this trick or any of the previous techniques in the course. If you attend, you may be able to ask a question over video where you can demonstrate the issue you're struggling with on camera and I will provide feedback in real time.
