Simplified Gambling Card Tricks: Look like a card sharp with these easy tricks (Simplied Magic Tricks Book 1)

0/5 ( ratings)

Gambling with cards has always fascinated me and I spent years perfecting real gambling techniques to use with my card effects, being able to second deal with ease is one of my most cherished abilities and it "cleaned up" a lot of magic tricks which would otherwise have needed some unusual looking actions.

One aspect of my work that gained the most interest was when I would do gambling demonstrations, they were greeted with lots of enthusiasm no matter what country I was in. I also found that I could start off by doing some "hard core" gambling demonstrations to set up my credentials then I could use one of the card tricks in this Kindle eBook and I would get the same reaction as I would from the routines that took months to perfect.

I had already convinced the audience that I was an "expert" and they expected to see a demonstration of skill so that is what they convinced themselves they seeing. However, imagine you meet someone in a bar and they show you a routine where they are explaining what techniques a gambler uses then an unexpected ending happens which could only have been achieved by real skill then you will believe that person can really manipulate the cards, there is no other explanation. I had set myself up as an expert and needed to succeed otherwise I would have looked foolish but the guy in the bar was not setting up as anything and the reaction is the same as I would get. I won't go into the psychology behind all of this but I will say that setting myself up as an expert became very confrontational sometimes but the guy in the bar is just entertaining people for the fun of and that is a great thing to do.

The second deal took me years to perfect, the actual mechanics took a few months but the hard practise came in making it look natural and to fit in with the way I handled cards and by contrast the tricks in this eBook will take you less than a day to learn all of them and you will have the ability to entertain people and to give the impression that you can really manipulate the cards.

To get the best response it will be necessary to learn a couple of sleights , these will serve you well and are very simple to learn but they will enhance the tricks - it is entirely up to you whether or not you use them in the tricks to be described but I have included them to make sure you have the very best instruction.

Tricks include:
An in-the-hands three card trick with surprise ending
A card sharp's tale - a "demonstration" of bottom dealing
A quick betcha - an outrageous card swindle
Easy win poker - go head to head with a spectator and always win
Jacks or better - a "demonstration" of second dealing
