First steps

Shuffling poker chips can seem complicated at first glance but with more practice it becomes easier. To do the first steps in learning use the soft surface, for instance couch or pillow. The following instructions are for right handed people, so you can do vice versa if you are left handed.

It is better to use four or five chips on both sides for the beginning. Put your middle finger and an index one on the left stack and your pinky and ring finger should be on the right stack. The thumb begins to act on the left of right stack and lift it slightly since stacks are pushed to each other. When the lifting process has been started slide over your thumb to the right side of the right part to push those 2 stacks together. As you can see on the soft surface your thumb can remain on the right side of right stack all the time as the starting lift occurs by easily pushing two stacks to each other.
