I do magic. And I think I saw a video where Tell said that the best thing you can do to a magician is to use his own knowledge against him. I had a feeling about how his shuffles were done to control the poker hands. But I didn't expect or see the move to track the Kings or Aces on the last deal. Delightful and fantastic.
The only reason he didn't fool penn and teller, is because he uses very common, highly practiced moves and sleights. However, his fluidity, patter, and overall presentation is masterful. Any decent card handler should follow along, but in turn be amazed and how seemless he makes it look.
I just re-watched a documentary on Stephen Wiltshire!! and thought I'd recognised this guy!. I used to love card magic and thats where I knew I'd seen the name and face before!! I might just get back into it now!!
@joeypesci Too right they should. His performance on that show had those moves done the smoothest and slickest I've ever seen them done. You can watch it 1000 times and know exactly what you're looking for and still not even get a hint of the moves being done. Was true artistry.
I found your performance simply brilliant: I always find your patter to be interesting and entertaining and your sleight of hand extremely precise and smooth. Wonderful!
thats incredible...

I still think Penn And Teller should hire you to go to Vegas anyway.

@joeypesci Penn and Teller can't bring him to Vegas. Cos he'll make all the casinos go bankrupt with his poker skills. Haha.
