Palming is a technique for holding or concealing one or 

more cards. Cards palmed from a deck are typically held 

in reserve (unseen by the audience) until production is 

required for the illusion being performed. Palming 

techniques include: the Braue diagonal tip-up, the 

swing, 

the thumb-count, face card palm, the crosswise, new 

vertical, the gamblers' squaring, the gamblers' flat, the 

Hugard top palm, the flip-over, the Hofzinser bottom, the 

Braue bottom, the Tenkai palm and the Zingone bottom.
