 Hey everybody, welcome back to magic orthodoxy. My name is David and this is a magic review Hey today, we're gonna look at Las Vegas aces from Cody Fisher and vanishing incorporated. What is Las Vegas aces? It is a gambling routine kind of your it's done through the guys that you're showing your spectators How gamblers do their tricks and how they could probably win at the casinos. It's a follow the ace routine It's a for ace routine. I think you're definitely gonna like it if gambling routines are your thing Let's see the trailer Hi guys, Cody Fisher coming to you from the magic estate Welcome to Las Vegas aces if you're doing restaurant magic or walk around magic or strolling magic and you've ever heard the phrase I hate to play cards with you. This is the trick that's going to show them why they would welcome to Las Vegas aces I'm gonna share with you a couple of gambling techniques that you can use go to Las Vegas and win 1000s of dollars and for this we are going to use the for aces Take them out right here clubs hearts spades where we go. There we go That the diamonds one more to go one more to go There we go. And of course last but not least the ace of hearts So here's what we're gonna do club spades diamonds and hearts Club spades diamonds and hearts the first technique that we can use is called a crimp And what and here's what a crimp is a crimp is whenever you place a tiny bend in the corner of a playing card Now why is that important if you have a tiny bend in the corner of one of those aces? If I was dealing these cards as I deal through the cards once I feel that tiny bend I can then deal that card to myself that technique is known as the crimp The second technique is known as the palm and it's basically exactly what it sounds like Say I want to palm the ace of spades You basically place the ace in your hand and palm it off like this now Why is this valuable the reason this is so cool is because when the dealer deals you cards You can secretly add that palmed ace to your card another technique is called the Boy Scout crossover check this out I can take this ace of clubs for example if I want to all I have to do is just cross my hands over just like this So when I do that that ace of clubs goes across here's the heart and the diamond over here Which means right over here. We have the club and The spade I tell you what this half the room you watch the heart and the diamond this half the room You guys watch the club and the spade watch it. I mean watch it very carefully this time We're gonna actually take the ace of diamonds. We're gonna do a move called the invisible palm It looks really good from this angle. It looks really good from this side, too Actually, you can't see that palm card until you set it down on the table So if you look right here That would be the ace of diamonds in between the club and the spade The last one is the most difficult one to go the ace of hearts. Check it out. It's called the invisible rub I just rub the card like this it travels through the bottom of the table up through the aces and Right there. That's how we get the club the diamond the heart and The spade and that is Las Vegas aces All right, so that was Cody Fisher You might remember that we just recently did another review for him the deal-sealer Both of these effects are brought to you from the magic estate All right, so a couple questions we always ask about all of our magic reviews and the first of which is what's in the box What's in the box? You're getting a cardboard sleeve You're getting two gas cards So a red card or a blue card and you're getting the download code to a 17 minute video Is it what I thought? I figured it was a gaff because it says gaff in the title So that was kind of like my first giveaway So I figured it was a gaff and a routine Married together, you know, it's a gambling routine where you have a gaff card and it's kind of hidden During the routine, so it is kind of that if that's what you're already thinking and if it wasn't you are now All right, so how are the angles? There are some angles, but it's all card magic and card gaffs Okay, so you have a legitimate card gaff that you're trying to keep hidden So you're revealing it. It's popping out at different times during the play And so if you're already kind of familiar already comfortable using card gaffs in a routine, there's only one You're just kind of moving that in and out invisibly But the slides involved are not that difficult. Can it be inspected? Really when the trick is over There's only the four aces left for the spectator to find So there's really nothing left in play that would indicate to them that there was an extra card that they never saw So in the end everything is perfectly examinable. What's the overall quality and production value? It's perfect The Magic Estate makes great DVDs Cody Fisher is a good teacher He speaks well the background isn't distracting the music is not distracting. It's well shot. Well, Mike's camera angles are good You're getting a quality product. Is the gaff well made? It is a United States playing card company gaff. You're gonna get a red back Rider back and a blue back rider back. All right, so how much practice does this routine require? There is some setup. Okay, and of course, you'll need to learn the routine the scripting and all of that Okay, and so but Cody Fisher will give you key points and he'll also Briefly cover the four or five slides that you're gonna need to know He's not really gonna teach them to you Okay, because they're not exactly his to teach but you will see them and if you already have kind of an intermediate approach Or you're already at an intermediate level with card magic You should be familiar with these already. They are pretty basic. How much setup and reset is there? It is a deck stack. Okay, and it will take your entire deck. Okay, you won't be able to spring out any deck You'll have to have this deck set up ready to go to do Vegas aces Okay, and then to put it back into setup You'd probably want to do that off-camera. Okay, it would take you a little bit to put this back in the Ready position, but it shouldn't be a problem. All right, so positives. What are the positives to the Vegas aces from Cody Fisher? This is an elegant Cards across routine that is sure to amaze audiences and fool magicians. I give it ten out of ten All right negatives. What are the negatives to Vegas aces from Cody Fisher? I did say earlier that you get the code to download this video, but that's not entirely true You don't get to download it. This is a 17 minute video that you have to watch online That is really your only option unless you are some sort of a Internet wizard that you can figure out how to crack the code and download the video But other than that They're not making this available for you to download So the only way you'll learn this is if you have an internet connection and that you have an internet connection every time You want to watch it. Is it worth your money? It's $25 $25 17 minute video getting two card gaffes, but you're getting a really great Card routine. So I would say yes. I think this is definitely worth your money Who would like this people that are kind of like Cody Fisher people that do walk around people that do table people to do Restaurant magic. I think we're definitely like Vegas aces from Cody Fisher and the magic estate All right So that is my review for Vegas aces by Cody Fisher and the magic estate as always I want to thank Murphy's magic for providing this trick for me so that I can review it for you And if you want to purchase it for yourself, you can find it from your favorite Murphy's magic dealer.
