RIP RIcky Jay - you were a master entertainer, and a master magician. You will be missed.
Unbelievable. Like Penn and Teller he tells you what he's going to do, does it, and you still are amazed. That is magic.
Yeah very similar set up. Just as legendary.
Ricky Jay (1946 - 2018), RIP to the legend. Indeed, his card tricks were just unbelievable. I sure wouldn't play cards with him!
Brilliant comment and so true. You're right, pure magic.
How do we know the players are not in on it?
He dares you to understand how good he is. It's Inception like magic.
Ricky's best trick is self control. Every motion and word he makes is deliberate and with purpose. He controls what you see him do.
There's video of him manipulating cards in front of 3 or more mirrors, just to see what you see.
The world is less magical without Jay. A real master.
Ricky is a great magician. Evidently he even made the right audio channel disappear.
"Ain't life grand?" - RIP Ricky
Simply the Best love the way he talked and the way he carried himself
Yes, he died just this past week. Not a joke...you can verify it on the internet.
That made me tear up instantly. Just heard of his death today. Seeing the pure joy he brought to all those grown men was astonishing. Just look at John C Reilly's face at the egg trick in slow motion at the end.
DMTsleeper I've seen Mr. Jay's live show (from the front row, as a matter of fact) in Manhattan and I can assure you that he does no editing (nor does he need any) to "make it look like he is better than he really is". He IS that good.
Michael Shaffer your lucky to have seen a master in person. He's amazing
He's a legend.
Ricky Jay is one of my Favorites. I Love honesty with Magicians.
He's not necessarily trying to WOW you with "Magic" or the Trick. He's simply showing you what Years of Practice in Manipulation can do.
3:08 "Eddie, would you like to switch, or would you like to play mine?"
Heads I win, tails you lose.
Amazing psychology
chilling understanding of conditioning and puppetry on display with that line
Oh my god, I didn't hear that. Wow, bold.
It's a form of "double bind" , an ericksonian hypnotic language pattern, two options which really are just one. "Would you like to sign contract now or prefer lunch first?"
"The Guarantee"--believe it or not--is a self-working illusion, not of Mr. Jays's invention...but the presentation is pure Ricky. The outcome might vary, but the dealer always ends up with the winning hand. Nifty.
I've just recently found Ricky and wow what an interesting man! This conversation and his skills and magic are just beautiful!
Ricky Jay (1946 - 2018), was an absolute legend. Especially with cards. This vid is one of my favorites.
Before I even knew he did this stuff, I saw him on The Heist in 2002. It was just a small role, but he had a certain something about him that was just cool that I liked. The way he spoke, the way he said things....just a good vibe.
Just finished watching the Heist for the 2nd or maybe the 3rd time. That's what drew me to this video.
I’d seen him in Nolan’s The Prestige in a small role, and had also seen him in PTA’s Boogie Nights and Magnolia, the aforementioned Nolan film I had also read he was the magical consultant and found out he was a stage magician.
Brilliant sleight-of-hand and great oral speaking skills to tell a story with the manipulations and tricks and some of the urban legends of the magic world!
He and David Mamet had a long friendship. Ricky is in several of his films, Heist included.
I saw him in LA. He did a variety of this, but I was the only person on the stage with him. He dealt me four unbelievable hands…and he won.
RIP Ricky Jay
Sublime skill , charisma and control
Absolutely brilliant. To see John C. in the circle makes it that much better. This is an art-form that goes far beyond simple 'card-magic'.The magician knows where a chosen card is, the mechanic knows where they all are.
RIP to one of the all-time masters of the craft.
I miss the master. Thank you for posting
R.I.P. magic man
"Trying to win at pokers? Then learn how to shuffle so you get all 5 aces ya dingus.
For your health."
Thank you for everything you have done for me Mr. Jay i never really did magic but you taught to be eloquent, a gentleman, a scholar, never sell myself short, and always be the light in the room!
You will truly be missed, I’m glad you get to be with all your mentors again. They would all be so proud of how you carried on their legacies. R.I.P Mr. Jay ❤️❤️❤️
It’s wonderful to see when a person, any person, who finds their perfect niche. The profession or hobby or whatever that they just seem so fitted for its as if that person was created just for that job or that job was created just for that person.
And here’s one!
I agree. Ricky had many magic tricks, but he really liked the card tricks the best. RIP to the legend.
my right ear is lonely. :P
I work with noise-canceling headphones at work. They work much better than normal earplugs, and most of the day I have only one ear covered. This sounds about right.
@@homerco213 That can't be good for your ears.
Master of sleight of hand and presentation!
this is by far my favorite Ricky Jay video , I would love to know where it's published and how its done
What a great video
I just began watching it
fantastic!
That second dealing pretty much makes you win every card game ever.
combine it with bottom deal
Mozzie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"There won't be too much in the way of explanation..."
Ricky Jay....a Legend!
Capable with a deck of cards. That's quite the understatement
Amazing
So many things in this life are not as they appear, but Mr. Jay was as great as advertised.
Not too many 29-minute youtubes I can sit through, but this one . . . no problem!
Seen Ricky Jay in a movie with Gene Hackman 2 nights ago called the heist. Not just magic tricks
3:08 "would you like to switch, or play mine?"
The greatest. Smart, funny, genius
He was an amazing guy
I feel like he has more control over the cards than he puts out. That's a master magician if I have ever seen one.
I once met a master card magician (not Ricky). I asked him if he could cut the cards and then tell me how many cards were in the piles. He was within 1 card. I bet Ricky Jay had the same dexterity.
This dude is awesome.
One of a kind! The Master!
Two X-Files guest stars at the table.
He was an extremely interesting man.
My left ear enjoyed this video very much.
He was a master. RIP.
Tried it four different ways on two browsers, both mobile and desktop; the audio does not work. I can click on any of the suggestions to the right and get audio right away. The controls on the video don't change anything.
Legendary.
Ace 3 suited or even ace 3 offsuit is an easy call for a 3x raise. Aces are also probably just a flat depending on stack sizes. I would probably fold the kings on the turn depending on the sizing. Rip Mr Jay. One of the greatest to ever handle a deck.
@DMTsleeper please explain what you mean. in what way does he edit his films to make himself look better?
And that's why he was the master! RIP RJ
RIP, Ricky
a genius RIP RICKY JAY
It would have been great to travel with Ricky Jay.
Flawless! ♠️♥️♣️♦️ Ricky Jay will be missed. :O/

Cosmologists tell us that no information in the Universe is ever lost: information is conserved. Where, now, is the genius that was imprinted on the mind of Ricky Jay? We're all impoverished by the loss of his wonderful personality -- unless it's alive somewhere.
R.I.P., Ricky. I look forward to being entertained by you sometime in the (very distant) future.
I was thinking this exact same thing last night but couldn't word it as eloquently.
@@LowEndMarauder
Thanks, Dan -- what a generous thing to say. I remember a line Mamet wrote for his character in 'The Spanish Prisoner': "Worry is like interest paid in advance on a debt that never comes due."
Have a good weekend.
Ricky Jay is the GOAT
Ricky Jay was the absolute best at card mechanicing and manipulation!!! He is truly missed.
A True miracle...one more and he is eligible for sainthood.
At around 12:29, before showing the river card (the 4th 3), Ricky says that the man should know that Ricky doesn’t have 4th 3 card because Ricky would not have called the bets up until then if he had a 3.
Will someone please explain that statement. I would think that if Ricky was holding (J,3), that he would not either call or raise.
RIP, Ricky Jay
Godspeed from Ring 102.
WOW!
is that john c reilly?
I believe so, and the chap to his right appears to be another actor, Willie Garson.
I remember Garson from NYPD Blue...he played a nebbishey creep that lived in the building that Bobby Simone inherited.
@@edwardbronston1099 He's still active. I remember him from Stargate SG-1, where he played Martin Lloyd in 3 episodes, including the comedy ep "200". I've watched SG-1 far too often. :)
Willie Garson good actor plays a con artist on white color and of course he was on Sex in the City
You're god damn right
28:29 Great shot of John C Reilly
It took me until halfway through the video to realize god damn John C Reilly is in this
Also Willie Garson from White Collar
At the end: the Ace of Spades!
Who's at the table?
Willie Garson sitting across the table? They both would have been guests on The X-Files.
❤
Some pretty fine culling @ ~18"...maybe a little Charlie Miller here? Nice.
You have to give me 5 chances... too funny.
any one sitting at a card table with mr jay is the sucker!! lol!!
RIP Ricky.
'Do you want to switch or do you want to play mine?'. Flew right past them.
What deck is he using? info please..
+Aulia Rizky Bee Playing Cards
Damn, those fucking mind games...
The right player (guy with the hat) always switch.. so giving the Straight Flush to RJ.
JJ Cale? Willie and john c Reilly. Cool
Mike Douglas, Totie Fields. Was That the Same Episode with Gene Simmons?
I am assuming he has sleeved his winning hand and one or two of the people behind him on in on it!
RIP
I love it - Ricky says he's going to guarantee he'll win, and everybody just believes him :)
Seeing Ricky playing with Willie Garson. Ah.
13:00 there's godlike magic, then there's whatever this is.
He was amazing, one of the very best magicians ever. This is one of my favorite vids. He was at a peak and enjoying it as well.
Need a higher resolution video. Can't make heads or tails of the cards.
How did he get a royal flush ?
He was a great man.
If you close yoyr eyes he sounds a bit like Terrence Mkenna
Would be funnier if Reilly came as Dr. Steve Brule.
Wizard got in my brain
they were talking about a movie and i think all of them were in it what movie are they all talking about
Will Thompson -
The movie is “Chicago”. (Based on the Broadway musical of same name)
Holy Sh!t Yo...28:02
R.I.P. Sir
Dose anyone know what brand/type of cards he's using?
The video quality is poor so it's hard to tell, but the backs seem to be little bitty diamonds. If that's the case, that would make them Bee Club Specials, pretty standard in Nevada casinos (the ones I am familiar with).
Bee
Willie Garson and Clancy Brown?
That's Willie Garson?
This mono audio its rare huh aloskzkssk
Might right ear feels lonely :(
John: SHAAAAKE and BAKE RICKY!!! Shake and Bake!
Ricky: Just pick a card John.
knowing all this how is it possible to go to a card room or home game and trust the players and dealers?
how can you be sure you haven't been cheated in the past?
Eddie Sawyer!
