The pack is then cut several times and handed back to the magician. A pile of cards suddenly falls off the pack, leaving the magician holding the spectators card. METHOD When the card is selected by the spectator, the card on the bottom of the pack is crimped by the magician’s pinky. The spectator’s card is then placed on the top of the pack and the pack is cut. This now means that the spectator’s card is underneath the crimped card. The pack can be passed around the room to be cut several times and the spectator’s card will always be under the crimped card. The pack is then handed back to the magician who quietly puts his thumb under the crimped card appearing to be clumsy and allows the cards above his thumb to fall on the floor. The card under his thumb will be the spectators. The magician can also allow the rest of the cards to fall, leaving only the spectators card in his hand. This trick looks amazing because the audience has seen that the magician has not had a lot of contact with the pack and the whole routine has been totally impromptu.

Abra-Kid-Abra © 2016 Magic 2 Nines Trick Effect: To a cute story, magician shows a card with the word “nine” written, but with the “i” not dotted. She places the card face down on the table, & writes a dot on another piece of paper. She rubs the dot and it disappears. When she turns over the “nine” card, the “i” is now dotted! Props: Nine card, a pen or pencil, and a piece of paper. Secret: The word “nine” reads the same upside down or right side up, as it is written in cursive. When “nine” is right side up, the “i” is dotted. But when it is upside down, it isn’t—the dot is below the word and covered up by the thumb, which holds the card. As for the dot disappearing, you pretend to draw a dot on the paper but really don’t. Preparation: Have each student put a light pencil dot on the back of the card near the top edge of the card where the dot is.

He enjoys a reputation as a classy and adaptable performer of great experience, and Is seen by all the top people in all the best places. Alan is currently The President of The Magic Circle, only the 11th elected to this position in their 101 year history and was awarded their premier award of “The Maskelyne”. He has recently been to Las Vegas to receive a prestigious Performing Fellowship from The Magic Castle in Hollywood, and received “The Murray Award” before 3000 magical enthusiasts at the Opera House, Blackpool. Alan is one of only five British magicians ever to be elected to the “Hall of Fame” by the Society of American Magicians. Whether Alan is appearing on stage or doing close-up magic right under your nose, he leaves you totally baffled and entertained. Once he gets a pack of cards in his hands anything can happen, your borrowed banknotes get lost and turn up in the unlikeliest place, finger rings melt away, and he reads your mind in an amazing fashion. On stage or in cabaret he produces live goldfish on the end of a line cast into the audience, and might include major illusions like sawing and levitating a member of the audience. It’s fun, it’s fast, and Alan’s engaging personality lifts the art of magic to new heights of sophisticated illusion.

  • Professional Blackjack Stanford Wong Pdf
    Professional blackjack stanford wong pdf Continue For the main character of the book, see Stanford Wong Flunks Big-Time. John Ferguson (born 1943), known by the pseudonym Stanford Wong, is the author of Gambling, best known for his book Professional Blackjack, first published in 1975. Wong's Blackjack Analyzer computer program, originally created for personal use, was one of the first parts of the commercially available blackjack chance analysis software. Wong appeared on television several times as a participant in the blackjack tournament or as a gambling expert. He owns Pi Yee Press, which has published books by other gambling authors, including King Yao. Blackjack Wong began playing blackjack in 1964, teaching financial courses at San Francisco State University and earning a doctorate in finance from Stanford University in California. Not content with teaching, Wong agreed to receive a salary of $1 for the last term of school, so as not to attend teacher meetings and to continue his gambling career. The term Wong (v.) or Wonging began to mean a certain technique of advantage in blackjack, which Wong made popular in the 1980s. and then go out again. Wonging is the reason that some casinos have signs on some blackjack tables saying: No Mid-Shoe Entry, meaning that a new player has to wait until just first hand after shuffling to start playing. He reviewed or acted as a consultant to blackjack writers and researchers, including Don Schlesinger and Jan Andersen. Wong is known to have been the main operator of the team's advantage players who targeted casino tournaments including Blackjack, Craps and Video Poker in and around Las Vegas.
