Poker Chip Trick #1: The Pullover - Beginner

Pullover

I don’t recall having seen this trick done in any of the poker episodes on TV, but I’ve seen it quite a few times at the poker table in casinos. Nothing flashy or exciting, but it’s the easiest poker chip trick you can find.

Before you begin

Trick Difficulty - 1
Chips needed - 2 or more

Tutorial

Places the chips in a single stack on the table. Places your fingers around the stack so the thumb and index finger are on one side of the stack and the other three fingers are on the opposite side.

Lift half of the stack up with all of your fingers, moving it to the side held by the middle, ring, and pinky fingers. As you drop it onto the table, reach back to what’s left of the original stack with your thumb and index finger. Pick up this stack with the two fingers and place it on top of the stack that was moved. Repeat the process over and over. Pretty exciting hey?
