As you may (or may not) know, I have been going through a lot of my material, revising it, expanding it, and reformatting it. My Ten Card Poker Deal got a lot of positive responses here at The Café a few years ago. It is now a 15 page EBook, with a lot more information as to the thinking and philosophy behind the routine, the full script, and a much more pleasing and easy to read layout. Below is the ad copy for this routine and some of the things Café members have had to say about it:
The World’s WORST Card Player This is the 10-card poker deal that is getting raves from the magic community. Lots of fun, strong presentation, and it takes the "sting" out for the audience participant. Scott's full professional script is included. This is a very funny, entertaining routine that will endear you to the audience and make the participant look like a hero. EVERYBODY wins! 15 pages of Scott's now famous crystal clear instruction, complete with the thinking behind the routine. Yep, this is definitely a real winner! Level: EASY! Scott's is the best routine I have found to make the spec the winner. I have a few different versions but I will be using Scott's. It also handles problems like who shuffles and mixes, etc. I like it. It's nice because you allow the spec to win--even when you win you lose! - John Cesta I purchased Scott Guinn's routine. Very nice. I like it. It makes the spectator the winner, and is all around entertaining. Great deal! Thanks Scott! - rowdymagi5 Very nice, well scripted routine that can be used with just about any 10 card handling you like. - David VanVranken Guys, take a look at this routine by Scott F. Guinn. A great routine, excellent. He didn't really need to but he even took the time go over the method and not just the presentation. Value for money = Excellent. Actual content = Awesome. For an entertaining and fair routine check this out. - Peter David Harrison I too got Scott's version and think it's great. I highly recommend it. - Paul Churken I got Scott's routine for Ten Card Poker deal. It's a nice touch on getting out of making the spectator the loser. It's easy to track the Jonah and there's lots of room to add more phases if you'd like. It's a pretty good deal for the price. - Greg Arce "The World's WORST Card Player" is available as an instant download EBook for $7.50 at http://www.scottfguinn.com/cardmagic.asp (about halfway down the page). BTW, if you bought the old manuscript, contact me with verification, and I'll let you have the new one for one dollar.

I love this trick. It's simple, entertaining and most of all it takes the sting out of some magic performances. I have always been interested in tricks that use the Jonah pricipal but I have never liked the "magic boy never loses" idea. If you are an arrogant, pompas pain in ass type performer (and sadly none of you know who you are) you should pass on this one. But, if you enjoy entertaining people and making them feel like they would like to see more of your tricks then this is the perfect effect.

I am really enjoying TWWCP. The best part is being on the losing end of this routine instead of always being the winner. It's made for laughs and you get them.
Since I do table hopping I didn't want to lose a dollar each time, so instead I bet them a One Million Dollar bill to their bill. This way it costs me less to perform it and they get a souvenir to remember you. More Guinn goodness.
I am getting so tired of slitting the throats of people who say that I am a violent psychopath.

Hey thanks, Alec! And great idea about the million dollar bill! I've also used lottery scratch tickets.

OK I just got this from Scott's site http://www.scottfguinn.com/cardmagic.asp
I had to check this out. I usually stay away from these kinds of routines, they feel flat to me, but I love Scott's magic so I had to check it out and for $7.50 hard to pass up. Anyway, what I really like about this is how you make yourself the looser and not the spectator. You have tons of jokes just in that concept. but if you can't think of any no big deal because Scott gives you his Script with the routine. BONUS. That way you can start right away and try this out and see how it works for you, then start changing the script as you get more comfortable with the routine. Having a script in my mind is the biggest help. and worth every penny spent. To make a long story short I've come to the dark side, I have never done this type of routine, but will now....Thanks Scott for opening my eyes to a diamond in the ruff. Plus this routine gives you plenty of time to get to know your audience better, interact and just have fun. I like to call those kind of routine low stress, don't have to worry about any sleights, just sit back and enjoy the ride. It's a keeper. Recommended. Tim Feher
Mean people SUCK!!!!!!!
