 +The same concept---but applied to the overhand shuffle---seems to have been created by Ken Krenzel. His handling "Chopper" was taught in //[[https://askalexander.org/display/12671/Ken+Krenzel+s+Close+up+Impact/167|Close-up Impact!]]//, 1990, p. 167.

 +Pulling the bottom portion of the deck off as though it was the top portion was used as a key card placement before its use in a full-deck false shuffle. In //[[https://askalexander.org/display/38378/The+Sphinx/9|The Sphinx]]//, Vol. 48 No. 3, May 1949, p. 65, this bottom pull-off placement was credited to Bert Allerton.
