Are you talking about at a table, or walk around?

If walk around, or if the switch is to be in between effects then I see no real issue, with the deck in one hand place both hands in your jacket pockets under the premise you are looking for something - a sharpie, a coin - anything - the left hand comes out with the item, the right hand switches the deck.

Switching at a table in the middle of an effect iis also achievable, but it can require a little more misdirection. One product I did see at blackpool that looked extremely good for a tabled deck switch was "The Cooler" by Christian Engblom (Big Fin presents) - R. Paaul WIlson was at the standard - who has some great ideas for the product.

I bought one for a close up competition (but shhhh - dont tell).
