I was looking for some tips on TS. To be exact, I have a problem with it:

Whenever I do the effect, people are amazed and all that, but want to examine the cards, and I've got no way of letting them see it.

I don't have a switch wallet, and can't go a top change, so no getting off easy here .

Thanks so much in advance for all your help...

I've performed the trick lots of times and no-one has thought about examining the cards: I just leave them on the table (with certain parts slightly covered). That doesn't help you much; but I can only suggest that you try not to act as if you are guarding the cards, and try to be more casual. Good luck.

If this helps at all... try putting it right before another trick... and while they're still in awe switch over and say, " if you thought that was good..."
(or whatever) Hope this helps!

I only use this effect at a table close-up situation where the spectators are out front and I am behind the table performing, this gives me more control of the situation. I would never have thought this was an ideal effect to do in a situation where you are doing walk around or mix and mingle magic!

I personally wouldn't perform this in any other situation other than the way I have stated above, if I was asked to perform it to someone in any other situation eg. for friends at home, I then think I would follow the advice of improptucards.....and move quickly on to my next amazing effect!
