Magic Tricks

The 10 card poker deal is one of my favorites since I read it in the book Scarne on card tricks. The method behind the trick is brilliant, and several excellent routines are possible using the principle.

I received Jermay's version as a free bonus for purchasing his 3510 book. The presentation is solid, but I rate the video only 4/5, since the method is not new, and I still prefer Aragon's Blessed poker described in the Book in English.

In addition to Jermay's explanation, a further presentation by Matt Johnson is included. This version I don't find so strong, since 3-2 is the most probable outcome even with random deals, thus predicting it seems nothing more than a lucky guess.
