Story card tricks

Am I the only one who doesn’t like full deck story card tricks? This one is particularly bad I think – at least throw in a good false shuffle at the start and in the middle – cuts just aren’t good enough.

You can’t talk about story card tricks and not mention Bill Malone’s Sam the Bellhop – much better version but I’m still not convinced.

Biddle trick – Bebel

 

I’ve always liked the trick but was never happy with the justification for having some cards on the table while you biddle and do the trick with the others – great version by Bebel – perhaps a psychological stop force could also be used to get them to stop on the few containing the selection.
