John Scarne

John Scarne began practicing sleight of hand with the goal of becoming a card shark, but his Roman Catholic mother dissuaded her son from gambling in general, and cheating others in particular. She persuaded him to practice magic instead. Scarne soon extended his skill at handling cards to learning — and devising — magical effects with cards.

Watch John Scarne as he performs second deals, mucks, and other gambling moves.
