Svengali decks are ALWAYS fun; they are one of those "classic" gimmicks that have stood the test of
time. As I have said before, things become classics for a reason; crappy tricks don't end up as
classics.
The svengali deck is a classic gimmicked deck. These are cheap, easy to use and
they do all the work for you. That is a great concept within itself. There are SO many things you
can do with a svengali, and there are a TON of resources to learn different tricks.
The
only problems a svengali used to have is that they weren't of a good stock. Other svengali decks
LOOKED fishy; they didn't look like things people recognized or decks people could relate too. Now
that these decks are manufactured by Bicycle (and cheap too!) these are a GREAT buy and really help
you do things that couldn't be accomplished as fairly with a normal deck.
Fantastic for
beginners OR experts. Pick one up if you don't have one already.
