Those who have written negatively about this lecture are those who have not been in the trenches
actually working. Mr. Criswell was a little nervous, but so was Mac King. It is a difficult thing
to lecture to one's peers and particularly difficult when only a few people are in the room.
I
loved the pirate patch idea for the copper/silver coin; the chop cup had some great moments, and he
had some very nice card work. All in all what more does one want from a lecture?
The purchaser
needs to decide if he/she wants to be entertained or instructed. While both are possible, most
lectures lean one way of the other. This one has some great instruction. The few poor reviews, in
my opinion, simply don't have enough experience working for real people to realize how good some of
this really is. Just my opinion and your mileage may vary.
