Falso corte #1 – Estirado y descuartizado

Para la magia de "caminar", quería poder hacer cortes falsos en las manos. Desarrollé uno llamado "descuartizado". Su nombre proviene de dos aspectos: primero, que el corte implica cuatro paquetes; segundo, de mi apellido "Wallace". (William Wallace, un rebelde escocés, fue descuartizado por los ingleses).

 


Below is a video of the cut, shot in a Starbucks so I removed the sound.

Beginning of the cut.  The deck is held at the left finger tips.  The left thumb riffles off about half the cards.  For this description the quarters of the deck will be numbered 1, 2, 3 and 4 from the top down.

Drop the top half of the deck onto your right finger tips.  Using the left finger tips lift up on the left side of the top half, flipping it over into the right hand palm.  It should land pretty deep into the palm.

Here the cards have completed being flipped over into the right hand.  The left hands has sections 3 and 4.  The right hand, 1 and 2.

You are now going to start a Charlier cut with your left hand, and a reverse Charlier cut with the right hand.

The right thumb comes over the top of the right hand packet and picks up half of that packet, while the right first finger and pinky go under the bottom half and clip it so they can start to raise the lower half.  The left hand starts its Charlier cut.  Do not complete either cut.  In the image the right thumb holds packet 1, the right fingers have packet 1 clipped.  The left hand  holds packet 3 between the thumb and fingers, and packet 4 is being lifted by the left first finger.

Let the packet clipped in the right fingers fall onto the tips of the left fingers.  Note that the left first finger remains between the left hand packets.  Use the right fingers to flip its packet onto the left hand packet that is in the middle of the left hands Charlier cut.

The right fingers add packet 2 to the top of packet of packet 3 as the left hand completes its Charlier cut. But before the cut is completed the right fingers clip packet 4 as shown in the next image.

Note that the right hand thumb stills has control of the top packet.

The left hand is going to complete its Charlier cut, but the right first and middle fingers clip the upper most packet (packet 4) as the cut is completed. They lift that packet to the tips of the left fingers and thumb, placing the packet in position for another Charlier cut.

My right hand is placing packet 4 into my left hand in Charlier cut position.  My left first finger is ready to start the Charlier cut pressing up on the combined packets 2 and 3.  My right hand holds packet 1 under the right thumb.

The left hand is completing its Charlier cut.  Packets 3 and 3 (now pressed up against my left thumb) have been raised to clear packet 4 (which has dropped into the left palm).

The right hand will now flip its packet (packet 1) over onto the left finger tips as the left hand completes its Charlier cut.  The left hand will hold the combined packets 2, 3, and 4 in the palm with the right hand holding packet 1 on the left finger tips.

Packets 2 and 3 are now on top of packet 4 and the right hand is about to flip packet 1 on top of all the cards in the left hand.

Packet 1 lands on top and the deck is back in its original order.
