In this two-disc Volume II, Chef Anton, Whit Haydn, and Bob Sheets delve into their advanced system for the shell game, serving up routines complete with patter and alternate endings fit for a casual stroll (or a cheeky hustle). They’ll also let you in on the sneaky methods used by hustlers to rake in the cash. You’ll get a solid understanding of the psychology and philosophy behind the game, all while watching it unfold in live performance videos.

On Disc I, Bob's original instructions for handling his Sheets Acquitment and his system for working the shells (Absolutely Nuts) are not just reiterated—they’re expanded with new insights and a live performance for a regular audience at the Magic Castle's Close-Up Gallery. Bob’s sprinkled in fresh ideas and clever ruses, and more importantly, you get to see it all in action. Whit adds some nifty manoeuvres and new gizmos that make their system downright bulletproof.

Disc II features Chef Anton performing and explaining his own routine, whilst Whit takes a deep dive into psychological outs, contrasting two rather different live performances of his shell routine at the Magic Castle's Close-Up Gallery. You’ll be treated to some jaw-dropping footage of a street hustler in action at a music festival, complete with insights from Scoundrel Member Giuseppe Aliotta on the props and betting cycles used by today’s street con artists. Whit shows how the manoeuvres can be super handy when working with a handheld board. New shells and props for the game are also on display. Whit and Chef chat about the art of "Thinking like a Scoundrel" and how that translates to magic performances. The Escobar Move gets a demo, along with a few variations by Chanin, and several versions of the Kick Steal are showcased.

Both discs are packed with PDFs and other resources that'll make learning the moves as easy as pie (or at least a slightly tricky pie). All the moves and manoeuvres from Volume I get a quick recap here, just to keep you on your toes.
