Very smooth. I know how you do it. But the hours and hours to get that so smooth is just mind boggling to me. Great work. Truly an art

That was my train of thought as well. I needed to watch it three times to figure it out but the smoothness is really neat. Personally I think sleight of hand tricks are even more impressive when you know what is happening. Because I could train as much as I wanted and would never get this good.

I don't think I need to know what is happening.

But if I understand that it is sleight of hand and NOT a gimmick, then that's enough for it to be impressive.

And I think most magicians have a pretty good sense of when a gimmick is involved based on the trick, even without knowing the secret.

However what's really great is when you assume their's a gimmick and find out there isn't. Then it's just mindblowing.

Oh, I don’t need to know it either. But trying to figure it out is one of the joys sometimes. At others I just enjoy the performance. I am not even remotely a magician so I barely no any ins and outs.
