BlackJackBob, I can do it, but can not explain it.

It is with 3 chips and you lower the middle chip and twirl it, then but it back in between the other 2 chips.

Chip Twirl Chip Trick

There are several variations of the chip twirl chip trick. I'll show you the way I prefer to do the chip twirl. This is a difficult chip trick to learn but it's worth the effort in my opinion. But then again I spend so much time playing poker online that I have plenty of time to practice. You don't often see this one performed at the tables. Don't expect to learn this on in one sitting. Try not to let yourself get too frustrated as it takes everyone awhile to master the chip twirl.

Starting hand position for the chip twirl is the same as in the thumb flip chip trick. Hold three chips between your ring and index fingers as shown in the picture above. Support the chips with your middle finger from behind.

Using your thumb, loosen the two outer chips. Supporting the center chip firmly between your ring and index fingers, swing the outer chips up while dropping your ring finger at the same time, allowing the lone chip to slide down.

This movement will create a separation between the three poker chips as shown in the picture above. With practice, you'll eventually be able to lift the two chips up and away without having to loosen them first.

While supporting the lone chip between your index and ring fingers, place your middle finger on the side of the chip as displayed above. Now pull back on the chip, letting it spin towards your palm.

The spin is the most difficult part of the trick. Realize that it just takes a lot of practice to perform the spin smoothly. Being successful depends on learning to spin the chip at the correct speed while keeping the right amount of tension on the chip with your index and ring fingers.

Using your middle finger, spin the chip until it is again even with the two upper chips.

The most difficult part of the chip trick is over. If you can master the spin, you're home free. Now simply bring the three chips back together again as displayed above. The chip twirl was a real pain in the rear when I first attempted to learn it. Good luck!
