Sleight of Hand Poker Session at Hollywood Dog Track
Posted on February 15th, 2007 at 11:45 pm by admin

I decided to go to the Hollywood Dog Track with my friend Konstantin today because i like to pretend I’m a semi-pro poker player.

Earlier today I learned a sleight of hand magic trick which allows me to make Credit Cards, ID’s, playing cards disappear and reappear. It’s a very easy sleight of hand trick to learn.

So as I entered the Mardi Gras Casino in Hollywood Fl, I knew i was going to be carded so I had my ID in my hand ready.

Security: ID’s..
Preston: ID..Sure

(I present the ID to him at a side angle and with a quick shake of my hand and its gone. Then i make it reappear)


Preston: Here you go.
Security: Better becarful doing stuff like that, there going to throw you out or have to start watching you

(Security laughs)
(I laugh)
(We laugh)

I head towards the poker room and quickly sit down at my table with Konstantin. After a few hands into the poker session i take out the Ace of Clubs and just playing around with it. The poker dealer then asks me.

Poker Dealer Lady: Is that one of my cards?! (As she’s shuffling the deck for the next hand)

(I present the Card at a side angle and quickly make it disappear with my sleight of hand trick)


Preston: Card? What card?

Poker Dealer Lady: Very funny!

(Poker Dealer Lady laughs)
(I laugh)
(Table laughs)

Left around 11PM and up $128 dollars, Which is short of amazing for playing Texas Holdem $2 Straight
