Book excerpt: This profusely illustrated book demonstrates step by step the astonishing card magic cultivated by one of the premier sleight-of-hand artists of the 20th century. It presents maneuvers that have left theater audiences amazed and that card-playing professionals have used to great advantage. It is not a book for beginners, but will help those with basic card expertise reach new levels of performance in their art. Among the moves are shifts, palms, glides, false shuffles, cuts, fans, and steals. You'll learn how to do the false table riffle shuffle, how to deal from the bottom, how to know an opponent's hole card, how to "warm up a cold deck," and much more. In addition, the author presents forty dazzling deceptions guaranteed to amaze your audience: Confusion, Birds of a Feather, The Ambitious Card, A Brilliant Climax, Your Favorite Ace, A Quickie, The Obtrusive Queens, and many more. Over 300 photographs show the practitioner's exact hand positions during each critical move. Australian-born Arthur H. Buckley became well known in America for the magic he worked with cards on the major vaudeville circuits of the 1920s. Schooled by the great sleight-of-hand artists he met in the entertainment business and by professional gamblers he met in his early years touring Australia, his absolute mastery of the most artful and demanding card-handling routines was legendary. In 1946, he wrote this practical guide revealing in detail the secrets of his art. Any magician or card conjurer who aspires to the utmost proficiency in card manipulation will want to have this indispensable reference in his or her library.

Book The Experts at the Card Table

Download or read book The Experts at the Card Table written by David Ben and published by . This book was released on 2015-05 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Experts at the Card Table is a new interpretation of the seminal work on card cheating and magic, "Artifice, Ruse and Subterfuge at the Card Table", self-published originally by an S.W. Erdnase, in Chicago in 1902. Here, Ben offers a fresh and new perspective on what he describes as the "Erdnase System" for "Advantage Play"-- that is, cheating at card play. The reader is taught, in great detail, using over 800 photographs, clandestine card table artifice including how to secretly locate desired cards, secure them and then how to stock them for the deal. Ben has reformulated Erndase's original prose for greater clarity, in order to illustrate how one can falsely shuffle and cut the deck, manage and maintain the desired cards--all the while creating the illusion that the cards are being thoroughly mixed. Finally, the reader is instructed how to place the controlled cards into the desired hands. While the general reader will find the technical information and the "Erdnase System" highly educational, the book is intended for those with an advanced understanding and skillset of this arcane practice. This book is the first of three volumes that examines and discusses the science and art of manipulating playing cards for advantage play."--

Download or read book Hourglass Socioeconomics Vol 4 Global Field State Avoiding Absolution written by Blaine Stewart and published by Writers Republic LLC. This book was released on 2021-11-29 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume 4, Avoiding Absolution, aims to describe a path of avoidance toward a dissolutive state by mapping the process of and into. The goal is not to relish and dwell in the fear of catastrophe but become aware of the potential for absolution event characteristics to exist within the structure of our social model; here, now, and measurable in the past toward the future. Malignancy, whether internal or external, acts to threaten the strength of bondage between and among sector supports in different forms. In observation, determinants of the perceivable frame of reference, threat potential can be identified. The theme of preceding volumes are functions and forms in the arts and sciences. Continuing from the ending to Volume 3, hive dynamics continues to adapt and evolve our model into newer and higher dimensions. Psychology, as the interpretation of individual and the collective group psyche, is used to understand differentiation between progress toward equilibrium and a dissolution state. In the use of understanding intent, in the ID, Ego and Superego, current themes in society, as well as in historical context, can diagnose malignancy that threatens the balance of. The moon, and all the stars, are not immune to our use in interpretation. Time, both in balance and in purity, is but an orbit in the relationship to our experience of it. A queen can be maniacal or the purpose of the hive in reason and sustenance. Differentiation, as a dependent variable within our function, is but a derivative of field vector characteristics. As we continue into further adaptations of Hourglass Socioeconomics, our purpose is to subject the power of the collective in the effort toward equilibrium.
