You got the CT? What? Chip Tricks? Carpal Tunnel? Yeah...I got both.

So the other day, my dear friend Addy came across an awesome youtube video made by Skd1337 on how to shuffle chips (Btw, this talented user teaches all sorts of chip tricks on youtube).

Now Addy, being a fast learner, was flipping and shuffling like a pro in no time. Me, on the other hand... well, I have a small hand :( but that means I'm excused for being a slower learner...

You see, i think poker chip tricks are hot (dont know why) but they're also a lot of fun to do. They give me the impression that if you can do them, then you probably spend a lot of time at poker tables and got some skill with the cards.

What I've learned in the past few days is that learning the chip tricks is not that difficult. The techniques are fairly straight forward -- perfecting them is the hard part because its mostly a matter of practicing until you get the feeeeeeel for it...and that feel is usually pain, followed by numbness, then comes the swollen fingers, let's not forget the sore wrists, AND if you keep practicing, you will finally be successful.

Or you'll find yourself with carpal-tunnel. Whichever one comes first I guess.
