My Chips

I threw my reserved on the tokens of the Paulson brand. Their quality praised on all the sites had drawn my attention. Their aspect left me then perplexed. I nevertheless jumped the step by ordering on the site pokershop.fr a hundred Paulson classic in all the values. On their arrival, not of regret nor of disappointment, I found them splendid! The beginning of a history of love… In addition to the look their sonority is excellent and allow complex chips tricks. (But that it is another history…) My malette is mainly made up of classic. However I could not prevent to me from buying pharaoh' S and Signal Hat & Cane. My distribution by value is consultable here.

How To Start Chip Tricks

It is amusing to carry out some chip tricks with a table of poker and to see his friends decentralizing itself while trying to reproduce them. Serious error! One does not involve oneself at the time of the parts. It is necessary to make profitable the moments of the daily newspaper during which our hands are passive. In one week, put end to end these moments can amount in hours. And of the hours it is necessary some… I underline the ungrateful, frustrating, aggravating and discouraging character of the first attempts at trick.

Secrecies of the success


The repetition and perseverance.

A trick which appears impossible to realize becomes in a few days (sometimes weeks) the one second nature. I give blow less credit to all these virtuosos of the violin or piano, not of genius but much of work!
Observation

One moment ago when by as by magic one passes a trick for the first time. It should then well be included/understood why one reached that point while observing which was the position of the chips on the fingers. Which will be the best starting position to make a success of it. All the hands are different and thus there is an optimum way which is specific to each one to pass a trick.
Two hands

Your nonnatural hand will surprise you, it is not so null that you think it. I thus advise you to exert you with the two hands. With that several virtues: that makes it possible to increase your time of drive and to prepare to carry out the trick while playing. To start again while carrying out a butterfly gets a deep satisfaction…
Tricks that I will present

Chip Tricks : Thumb Flip

Thumb Flip is simple, not very impressive but it is very important because it is used as starting point for more complex tricks.I mainly use it in order to separate the external from the internal tokens to begin the tricks: Twirl, Butterfly and Five Star. (Although it is not imperative to carry out these tricks while starting with Thumb Flip, I find that it is simpler to begin.)
One at least needs two tokens to start. But most interesting and to know to do it with 3, 4 and 5 tokens.
This trick is carried out by “Le Chiffre” in Casino Royal.

Chip Tricks : Five Star

Five the star is a complication of Butterfly. I devoted much time to this trick which requires a placement of the tokens to the millimetre. Here an example of the realization of Five Star:
