Brad Burt does an excellent job teaching the side steal step-by-step. If you have ever tried to learn the side steal from a book it is really difficult to understand, at least it was for me. I found this dvd invaluable. The tricks shown are just ok which is why I gave it a 4. 1 also requires you to know a 2nd deal and he recommends his Gambling video because he won't teach it on the side steal video. What is great though are the color changes.
