What trick are these cards for...?

Postby MyGeniiUsername » March 2nd, 2021, 6:13 pm

Hi Everyone,

I came across a packet of the 4 kings. The King Of Hearts is shimmed. Any idea what tricks these are used for?

Best,
Brent

Bob's Box (Bob Swadling and Mark Mason) uses four Kings, one of which is shimmed. In my set it's the King of Clubs, but that may vary.

(The last time that I mentioned some effect on this forum, someone asked what the effect was. Before I could reply someone else replied describing the approximate effect and exposing the method. Which resulted in everybody telling me what a mediocre effect it was. So please don't expose the method of Bob's Box.)
