I have had good luck pulling the slave and bleeding it manually. Open bleeder, depress piston by hand, close bleeder, release piston, open bleeder, depress piston, close bleeder and repeat about ten times. I found this method works better than a pressure bleeder (I have a Motive). Not so much different from what you are doing with a friend helping you by manipulating the clutch pedal, but it seems to work. You can also experiment with how you hold the slave once it is hanging on its line, by rotating to place the bleeder nipple at the highest point (where air bubbles would theoretically go).
