I generally have a devil of a time remembering which way up to have a playing card when putting in a breather crimp. Today, I came up with a simple way of remembering.

The card faces its destination.

In other words, if it faces down, it cuts to the bottom; if it faces up, it cuts to the top.

Nice and easy.

Thanks for the tip! Sometimes when I'm showing someone a trick involving a crimp my nerves get the better of me and I end up losing the card in the deck because i've retained the wrong card during a shuffle.

I'll try to keep this in mind and it should help
