How good are you at shuffling chip cutting and all that?

Being poker players I assume for most of you it all comes pretty naturally however for the life of me I've never been able to get the hang of shuffling and riffling.

Chip cutting I am decent with some kinds of chips but alot of the casino chips are real heavy and sticky which just pisses me off blah =P

I don't know how i've never been able to get a hang of a riffle shuffle but I just can't... everytime I try to push the cards in together they fight me and just push up against each other.

Practice. I suck at it but I'm better than I used to be.

Some guy posted years ago about how this would make you feared at the table. He was trying to sell some kind of video. You should look him up. He might be able to help you. We had some fun with him.

I rarely have enough of them to riffle anyway. so I never bothered learning how.

I am terrible at chip ruffling too. I can cut the chips fine, though. Players who keep uneven stacks and hold up the game trying to figure out their bet sizing or all in amount drives me crazy.

I've tried for years with different sizes, weights, quantities, etc. Still can't do it.....

...but I'm pretty good at rakin' 'em in tho.

I went to the local casino today and got a few decks of cards to try and practice riffleing some more.. however the decks are not in good enough condition I find... alot stuck together.

Tried practicing chip tricks for a while, but gave up. Now I just make noise clinking them together, trying to fit in.

Didn't think that hard. Your not playing enough or too active. Play tight enough myself and can two stacks of ten when I get lucky to win enough to do it.
