Charlier Cuts (holding multiple breaks)

LESSONS - chapter 9, page 817

There's a cutting sequence used several times in GSOH that caused some confusion. One reader assumed that I was holding two breaks while another cardmen thought I was holding three breaks. In fact, I was only holding a single break in each half, held in each hand. Once you get into the depicted position smoothly, there are several ways to exploit this position with fancy cuts, revelations, and more. The sequence is also effective with four-card setups.
