Everyone had their own technique but I am a tap and crack the shell sort of egg opener. Tap the egg on a flat surface, press your thumbs into the eggshell just into the membrane of the shell and gently pull open.  To remove the super liquid white, simply turn it out onto a large soup spoon and allow the excess to fall away. Additionally, you can place the egg in an egg cup and tap the top to remove a piece of the top of the shell. Use a spoon to scoop out the poached egg.
