    Rest in Peace Ricky Jay - you were one of the greats. The first "player" was an idiot. He could have played his part and played a hand with the great Ricky Jay. Instead, the doofus wanted to talk instead of play cards.

    It's an amazingly simple trick. All you have to do is make sure the other guy gets the "old maid"... once they have that card, you can leave everything in their hands and they will always lose.

      @Kragatar Před 3 lety

      @@johnmichaelcolon It's like that game Old Maid, where all the cards are pairs except for the old maid... whoever has her in their hand at the end loses. In this trick, there's just one card of the bunch that doesn't makes pairs or straights with anything and whoever has it will have the losing hand no matter what other cards they end up with.

    While I'm sure that is how a con man would act, I just don't see how anyone would ever bet money with someone who clearly is cheating. As soon as he went down to 10 cards it was obvious he was performing a con of some kind. And it became blatantly obvious when he insisted on a specific shuffling/cutting of the deck.

    • @magicalmiller
      @magicalmiller Před 5 lety

      lol. Yea he got you. You have no idea what you are talking about. He was NOT cheating in anyway. I know because I do a 10 card poker deal routine myself. I created 4 diff. versions.

      No. This has been edited from the BBC original. You cut out the documentary crew and the car rides to these producer clowns’ houses ... Ricky’s short temper was no act. He was famously difficult w people he felt beneath his intellect.
