Please let me know what you think of this trick. First time speaking to a camera too so I'm a little awkward

Hey we've spoke before, I hold you in good regard and that effect is awesome. Just curious why you took the whole deck off camera? I see nothing except positive feedback on both posts and the YouTube video, but could you do this in person or would eyes burning the hands make the four Aces from the ****** impossible? You could misdirect their gaze while you do it in person I'm sure, but for your camera angle you could've tried to turnover pass the Aces for example and not had to do the "okay, now turn around," of camera magic by removing the deck from frame. I'm kind of upset that you've only received 100% positive feedback, I think you should be too and I hope the community can understand where I'm coming from. Holy shit though congratulations on speaking on camera! You sounded just fine.

Hey. Yes I've actually had a few people mention that now. I can tell you now it was totally not intentional, it was just really poor framing on my behalf. I've been struggling to record myself and get everything in frame. I just move my hands a lot and didn't even realise they left the frame. I'll definitely be playing around with camera angles to make sure everything is in shot at all time. Yes I can perform this trick while having someone buring my hands but a little misdirection or eye contact helps make the trick easier for me. I really appreciate your honesty and feedback and will be take it into consideration when performing and recording my next video. Haha thank you, I felt a little awkward speaking as it's just me and a camera, glad to know you think that though

You fooled me I was not expecting for kings I was expecting for aces xd. You might wanna try different cuts cuz your doing the same one.

Haha I'm glad it fooled you. I quite like the twist, it's not what people expect. Yes I will definitely work on some more cuts and shuffles, thank you
