Just curios how many people carry a few chips around with them to pracitce with while out doing other things?

My girlfriend laughs at me at work because at work I will walk over to her building to have a smoke with her and while I am walking I have three chips in my hand practicing the chip flip and chip turn. But in a week's time I am now able to do both of those tricks with both hands in my sleep!

Next is the butterfly, after I find a way to stretch my fingers to be an inch longer...

I do exactly the same thing. I have 10 chips at work (and a whole heap more at home). I practice shuffling and twirling all the time. When I'm on the phone, when I'm watvhing tv, when I'm playing p*. My wife makes fun of me, and so do the girls at work. In fact my nickname at work is Chip Chip. I can live with it.

The butterfly is next for me as well. But, given that I can't hold 4 chips between my fingers like that when I put them there, I think I'm a long way off.

I usually carry a stack of 10 with me. The only problem is that I don't know or do any tricks - I just like playing around with them. Maybe someday I will learn some.

I often carry 3 or 10. Twirl, finger-roll, shuffle...

Fortunately for me, shuffling does not bother the Mrs. when we're watching TV or whatever.

It was a hoot watching my daughter at 18 months place a chip on the back of her hand for her finger-roll. A year later and she very respectfully handles my TR Kings (v. the mayhem she has with her own Nexgens, dice, Blue Chip samples, faux clay, etc.) - including returning them to me or whatever small stacks I leave out for shuffling.

Guilty, I have a recessed armrest in my truck that I shuffle chips on whilst I drive. It's worse if I leave at night and my three year old daughter says, "Is daddy going to play poker again?"....does this mean I have a problem, especially since she's usually correct.

Reminds me of when I used to tell my kids I was going to work on Sunday mornings...at the golf course...for a while they would always assume I was going to work when I grabbed my clubs...I wish...

I don't carry chips around with me outside the house, but inside I always have three in my hand practicing the chip twirl.

What's the best site to visit for info about chip tricks?

I always take a nice chip to do the knuckle roll in my right hand while driving. It relaxes me....I used to take 3 everywhere to do flips and twirls while standing in line at the bank or post office.
