In this method the first and second cards are pushed off the deck as one card by the left thumb. The right hand draws off the second card as the left thumb draws back the first card onto the deck.

This method has the great virtue of providing a deal in which the cards are dealt in a manner approximating the standard deal used by most card players. The demands for perfect timing are less exacting than in the strike method but, as in that method, the grip of the left hand must be absolutely correct.

The procedure to be described here for the first time is a further improvement over other similar deals in that the grip has been simplified, the four right fingers being at the side of the pack as in a regular deal with the top card always under absolute control.
