00:00 So all that you're going to need for this trick is one of these little telescoping antennas.
00:15 I luckily had one at home.
00:17 You can find them online at Amazon.
00:20 Probably 5 bucks, probably less.
00:24 Who knows?
00:25 I looked around and I saw them for about 5 bucks.
00:27 So go get one of these and you'll be ready to go.
00:31 Let's go check out the handling of SPLOTE.
00:39 So when I start this out, I have the gimmick here, like this, in a sort of just, not sure
00:50 what kind of palm that would be.
00:54 Almost like a finger palm.
00:56 Anyway, so just like this, just place it on like your index finger and you hold it down
01:05 with your middle finger.
01:07 Just like that.
01:08 So from the front, you could point to something like, obviously you're seeing it from the
01:12 underside, but it would look just like this.
01:16 Kind of a relaxed grip.
01:18 So you come over to the deck with it like this.
01:22 You spread out the cards and that's there.
01:27 You spread out the cards and you can show like this and they'll see that.
01:34 You show them that.
01:35 Kind of tilt your, you'll tilt your hand away.
01:41 And then you do like, you do an S spread.
01:45 Kind of an S spread here.
01:48 You can quickly kick this out with your middle and ring finger.
01:54 So you do an S spread and kick it out and grab onto it with your middle and ring finger
02:01 of the other hand.
02:02 And then they come together, still gripping it with these two fingers.
02:09 And you're going to cover what they can see here with this hand.
02:14 So you cover that up and they won't see that as you square out the deck.
02:19 Make sure you have a really good grip here so that way you don't let it go.
02:26 You're covering it up and you start to spread before you, you don't want to move this hand
02:33 away or else they'll see that.
02:34 So you start to spread and as you start to spread, then you go here and you're going
02:41 to grab with your middle and ring or first and middle.
02:48 And you're going to spread out while pulling out the gimmick, the antenna, until it feels
02:54 comfortable and then you're going to take your middle and your ring over here and press.
03:01 So that way you can let go over here.
03:07 Then this antenna will hold up the cards, you can move like this, do a wave on top,
03:14 a wave on bottom.
03:16 And then you push them all together and with the pad of your thumb here, or sorry, your
03:24 palm, you're going to close up the antenna and do a quick show of this hand.
03:32 And here's the hard part, is you're going to push here with your index finger while
03:38 doing a scooping action, almost like a vanishing pencil, with the middle finger.
03:45 And what that'll let you do is get it back into that finger position, that grip, so you
03:53 can then turn these cards over and hand them right back if they're borrowed.
04:00 So what that move is again here, is once these are all spread out and they're balanced, you
04:12 close up with your palm and give a little spread so they don't see this, just a tiny
04:19 little bit of the top three cards or so.
04:23 Show this hand empty.
04:25 Go to grab these and when you flip, you do a bit of a turn, you kick that under.
04:31 So one more time, you're going to kick that under like this.
04:41 So with, it's kind of a kick, kick it under.
04:48 As you turn over these cards, and you show and hand them out.
04:52 So you're going to start with your antenna in that grip that I showed you, that little
05:04 finger palm grip, and that's just like this.
05:06 And you can kind of come up and just leave it there, rested.
05:11 You come over and you do a little spread with the cards.
05:15 Give them a quick flash just to show them that they're normal.
05:19 Of course if they're borrowed they know they're normal, so you don't have to do that.
05:23 And then you do your little, the S spread, and then you're going to kick out the gimmick
05:29 like I said, and I'll show you what that looks like from the top.
05:32 You can't even notice, you won't even notice it.
05:35 That was it right there.
05:36 Look in the back.
05:37 There's that little antenna back there.
05:41 You kick it over.
05:43 You bring all the cards together.
05:47 Anything you can cover from the front, cover from the top, and underneath you can see that's
05:52 ready to go there.
05:53 And then just spread over the top few cards so they can't see the gimmick yet, the little
05:59 antenna.
06:00 And go ahead and grab it, and pinch and spread these across until it feels comfortable.
06:11 Go ahead and let them go.
06:12 Once you find the right balance point, then you can wave top and bottom.
06:19 And then with the palm, go ahead and push that square.
06:24 Push them square, leave them a bit spread out.
06:27 Show this hand.
06:28 Now here's that difficult kicker.
06:31 So you're going to, this is what it looks like from the top.
06:33 You kick over, and you can turn these over and hand them back out.
06:40 Underneath, as you saw in the other video, is like this.
06:47 They're all squared up.
06:48 Let me show this hand empty.
06:49 So you square these up together.
06:52 A little bit of a spread.
06:55 Show this hand.
06:56 You come over, and you push on your index and kick down back into that grip.
07:04 Just think about the grip.
07:05 You can practice it like this, just without the cards.
07:11 That's all it is really.
07:12 It's here, and there.
07:13 One more time.
07:14 Like this.
07:15 And a kick.
07:16 So that's done underneath the deck.
07:25 As you're doing a transfer, you hold it about like this.
07:28 Just kind of rest your fingers on top of it so it can still move.
07:33 Turn the cards over, and hand them back out.
07:35 One more time.
07:37 That's like this.
07:38 You're just kind of resting on top.
07:43 And then you're going to come over, kick, turn over, hand them back out.
07:50 It gives a good visual.
07:53 They just saw the cards floating pretty much there.
07:58 They saw them float.
08:00 Close up.
08:02 You show this hand empty.
08:04 Come over here.
08:05 Turn these over, and show this.
08:10 You can also do a little bit of a forward spread to truly show both hands.
08:17 So similar to that S spread, just spread them forward a little bit, and kick that underneath
08:23 there.
08:24 Go ahead and grab it.
08:27 And just leave a little bit of a spread, and you can truly show your hands empty before
08:32 you want to kick it back into that palm.
08:36 You can show cards, hand them back out.
08:42 And then I usually just put my hand in my pocket, and go ahead and take this away.
08:48 And same with getting the get ready.
08:50 It's ready to go there, here, here.
08:55 All together.
08:56 A bit of a cover.
09:00 Start the spread.
09:02 Continue spreading out.
09:03 Go ahead and let them go.
09:06 Make sure you've got the right...
09:07 You'll have to tilt your hand to get the balance.
09:11 It's not hard to balance them.
09:12 It took me a few tries.
09:16 Square them up.
09:17 Show this hand.
09:18 Come over.
09:19 Show this hand.
09:21 Do a little spread.
09:23 Truly show both hands empty before you kick it back into your hand, and walk away.
09:31 And that's it.
09:32 Thank you.
