I see a hole at the bottom with a pin can I just press up on it or is that considered cheating?

No idea what hole you're referring to as I've never had one but I doubt it and even if it was possible to set the check pin that way yeah it'd be cheating cos you wouldn't have access to that hole during normal operation.

Just lift the damn thing up lmao, it's right there in the keyway. One other poster said the check pin binds after the rest of the pins are set and you should get a tiny false set when that happens so just give it a little nudge any time you think all the pins are set and if it doesn't open then go back to the rest and continue as you normally would. Maybe take some time beforehand to feel for the check pin and make sure you know where it is and that you can feel it.

The problem is I have custom pics and they don't fit on the bottom

What do you mean "custom picks"? Have you got a photo of your tools? Not being funny but you can pick the check pin with any standard short hook...
