I'm left-handed and this is exactly what I do.

Re: Proper Way to Look at Hole Cards
 

Most of the time I don't even look at my hole cards. I merely pretend to. I just play based upon the reactions of all others at the table looking at their own hole cards.

I'm left-handed but I do the opposite of this. I use my right hand to look at cards and my left hand to bet and riffle chips. But then I eat and write left-handed, while I'm right-handed in sports.

Also, I find I don't need a huge chip stack to hide the cards from the person on my left. Two or three stacks of 20 chips is enough.

You get to look at your cards?

I like to play lefty and eat righty. That way the cards don't get greasy.

I'm left handed as well, although I actually vary which side I keep my chips on. Basically it depends on where at the table I'm sitting since I want to give the dealer a clear shot at me. So if I'm in the 1 or 6 seats chips are on the left, 10 or 4 they're on the right.

I hope you also distribute chips lefty. Otherwise, gross. Hands that touch chips or cards (or anything else in a casino, for that matter) should never touch food.

You might want to try playing without the glove.
