David Devlin loves packet tricks. This new eBook contains nine of David’s best packet tricks. (Volume two in this series is Packet Racket II.) Some use normal cards, some use gaffs, and some are impromptu. If you think you’re getting a book about packet tricks that only magicians will appreciate, think again! This book is a terrific collection of tricks for laymen, restaurant workers, bar magicians, close-up workers, and everyone in between.

All of the tricks in this eBook are packet tricks, but most tend to have a feel of something a little bigger. Most of the effects use standard packet trick methodology such as easy switches, false counts and false displays, which are all within the reach of any card worker.

In this eBook, you will receive:

Las Vegas Passover

This is an ungaffed version of Simon Aronson’s wonderful effect, “Red See Passover”. A selected card from a blue-backed packet of cards travels invisibly to a red-backed packet of cards. This seems totally impossible!

Oh, we should mention that the spectators count the cards in each packet before and after the transportation, and removes the blue-backed cards from the red-backed packet themselves! The magic is very hands-off.

Joker Poker Outdone

A packet of five cards is shown to be made up of all Jokers. A single joker is placed face down on the table. This is the “hole card”. The rest of the Jokers instantly turn into the 10, Jack, Queen, and King of Spades. The card on the table is shown to still be a Joker. The magician instantly (and almost visibly) changes the final Joker into the Ace of Spades, completing the royal flush.

Once again, this is ungaffed and can be done impromptu. That said, the description will give you a way to slightly gaff a couple of the cards to give you a cleaner effect at the end, but this is not necessary to perform the effect.
