Hi,
I bought this book the other day and I thought it was great but I was wondering is this book ideal for a non magicician? I thought that once a scam has been pulled off then the spectator has the knowledge to go and win money in exactly the same way. that's because they aren't exactly magic tricks but at the end the spectator wishes he had never bet with you. I tried one on a guy and got some money off him and he pulled off the same stunt at a party later. He didn't really explain the rules of the bet enough and they thought he had cheated. I think these stunts have got to be done to a style and with set patter just like magic. What do you think anyone who has the book? And if you don't, why not? - it is worth every penny. elliott |

A serious misconception is that if you know how its done then you have a chance, this is one of the best sucker draws.
A good practioner will know when the dupe knows the con and adjust likewise, this makes for the most fun when operating.
