Magicians who work their charm with playing cards often hear the classic line, "I wouldn't want to play cards with you!" (as if we're all secretly card sharks, right?). This quip comes up even more when the magic revolves around the thrill of gambling. Winning at card games with a flick of the wrist is a tantalising and marketable skill, especially when you're performing for non-magicians who might just fancy a flutter!
Leading the charge in this volume is Bill Malone, who’s got a knack for showing what a curriculum would look like if we had an actual school for card cheats (not that we’re advocating for that, of course). Next up, Harry Lorayne delivers his classic showdown of Magician vs. Gambler, while Darwin Ortiz demonstrates how to deal out perfect poker hands and, as a cheeky grand finale, a flawless Bridge hand from a deck that’s been shuffled to oblivion. Marc DeSouza spins a yarn about a gambler who finds himself in a rather infernal card game, whilst Bill Malone makes his return with a jaw-dropping display of how to deal the four Aces straight from the bottom and even the middle of the deck (yes, really). To wrap it all up, James Swain showcases two stunners from gambling whizz Steve Forte that will leave even the savviest card handlers scratching their heads.
When you mix strong magic with the allure of gambling, you’ve got a recipe for something irresistible. And trust me, you won’t find a better compilation of this enticing combo than what’s packed into this volume.
