* Holding Out #2

PSEUDO - chapter 9, page 1012

I'm a big fan of stunts that allow me to substitute a gambling move for a magic move. This quickie is a perfect example. It's solely dependent on the gambler's cop. If the cop is clean, the appearance of the aces should be a surprise; if not, back to the drawing board and more practice. Note that the cop occurs on the same beat as the last packet is thrown into the left hand (start/stop principle).
