John Bannon – The Royal Scam

“The Royal Scam” is the first in John Bannon’s Fractal Card Magic trilogy. Available to all major dealers exclusively through FUN Incorporated， “The Royal Scam” is an expanded version of Roy Walton’s Cascade effect – on steroids.

The Effect

Beginning with a number of identical red-backed Aces of Spades， the performer causes the packet to turn all face up， and then， all face down. All of the faces and backs are shown repeatedly.

Unexpectedly， four face-up Aces are turned face down to reveal different-colored backs. As a complete surprise， the remaining Aces transform to show a Royal Flush in Spades.

You end clean， and everything can be examined. No palming or difficult sleight-of-hand required!
