b. With a Full Deck

1. Hold the pack in exactly the same manner as in a, the little finger holding a break between the cards to be palmed and the remainder of the deck.

2. Move the second, third and fourth fingers towards the right, the little finger carrying the lower packet with it, until the side of the first joint of the second finger rests against the side of the upper packet at the right upper corner, Fig. 2.

3. Slide the first finger along the top edge of the upper packet to join the second finger as in Fig. 3 but without clipping the outer corner of the packet between the fingers.

4. Place the upper packet in the left hand, at the same moment bending the right thumb inwards carrying the lower packet into the right hand. Let the corner of this packet slip off the thumb and bend the right fingers inwards palming the bottom packet as the right hand drops naturally to the side.

The action takes place as the right hand moves towards the left and places the pack in the left hand. The removal of the bottom packet is completely concealed by the back of the right hand.
