Every card magician knows the classic line: "I wouldn't want to play cards with you!" And if you're working any gambling-themed routines, you'll hear it even more. The allure of winning at card games, seemingly without breaking a sweat, is a captivating skill to flaunt in front of your audience. It opens up a world of thrilling possibilities!
In this second volume, we kick things off with the masterful Bill Malone, who gives us a peek into what a curriculum would look like if there were such a thing as a school for card cheats. Next up, the legendary Harry Lorayne serves up his timeless take on the Magician vs. Gambler showdown. Darwin Ortiz takes the stage to demonstrate how to deal perfect poker hands—and, just to show off, a flawless Bridge hand—from a deck that’s been shuffled to within an inch of its life.
Marc DeSouza spins a wild yarn about a gambler who finds himself in a high-stakes game against a rather infernal opponent. Bill Malone returns to leave us scratching our heads as he deals the four Aces from the bottom—and yes, even the middle—of the deck. Rounding things out, James Swain presents two jaw-dropping effects from the gambling guru Steve Forte that will leave even the savviest card handlers wide-eyed.
When strong magic meets the thrill of gambling, you've got a combo that's hard to resist. This volume showcases some of the finest performances and most engaging routines that make this hybrid art form shine.
