Biddle Move

Biddle Move is a card sleight developed by Elmer Biddle and described in Genii 1947 April, Vol. 11, No. 8, page 241 under the title Transcendent.

This move enabled the invention of a number of many other False Counts, most notably by Bob Veeser and Brother John Hamman in the 1950s, which in turn, helped pave the way for the packet trick boom in the 1970s.

Controversy

Those who read The Cardician by Ed Marlo know that he called this Move The K.B. Move, that is Kardyro-Biddle Move. If you want to know why, see M-U-M, Vol. 50, No. 7, December 1960, page 349, The Kardyro-Biddle Move Again by Tony Kardyro.
