BUY TICKETS TO MY SHOW: parlourofdeceptions.com ONLINE COURSE ON CARD MAGIC: cardmagic101.com PRIVATE EVENTS AND LESSONS: danielroymagic.com/booking SIGN UP FOR MY NEWSLETTER: danielroymagic.com/newsletter CREDITS: I learned the center deal from Jason England’s DVD Foundations Volume 1. I have made some slight modifications for my hands, but the technique is more or less the same as what he teaches. I also learned the bottom deal and second deal from his videos (and from The Expert at the Card Table by S.W. Erdnase. If this stuff interests you, check out “Gambling Sleight of Hand” Volumes 1 and 2 by Steve Forte - they’re incredible. The double duke is inspired by Guy Hollingworth’s “A Gambling Routine” published in “Drawing Room Deceptions,” Darwin Ortiz’s “The Ultimate Cardshark” published in “Darwin Ortiz at the Card Table,” and Andrew Wimhurst’s routines “The Wimhurst Poker Deal” and “The Return of the Ultimate Cardshark” published in “Down Under Deals.” The control to the bottom used is Ernest Earick's one-handed convincing control published in "By Forces Unseen." The explanations about the rationale behind the center deal, why it’s fascinating, why it’s useless, etc. is inspired by the work of Dai Vernon, Ricky Jay, Richard Turner, and Darwin Ortiz. Special thanks to my friend Mr. Z for additional guidance and information. If I’ve missed any references, the fault is my own, so please let me know!

@@DanielRoyMagic I have found that the best explanation of the center deal is in the Ross Bertrum book, Magic and Methods of Ross Bertrum. Dai Vernon posed for the photographs in this book. Again, "The Classics" And magicians saying something is useless is an old doge, to keep other magicians from Doing the move. T. Nelson Downs, and Louis Zegoni (see expert Card Technique, I think I spelled his last name wrong) (who I saw old movie footage of doing the center deal on a glass top table) Thanks to Jay Marshall, with Jack Pyle Chicago's Punch deck pro. They all considered the center deal one of the most useful of the dirty deals when used for magic.

Your technique is seamless, I can tell you've spent hours working on it. What I'm most impressed with is your ability to hold your break through all that. There are several times you move the deck where I can't tell how you're repositioning and not losing it. You're explanations are spot on as well. I hadn't considered the uses until you started talking about them. All around a great job, thank you!

This may be my favorite video of yours yet. The combination of skill, history, philosophy behind perfecting a craft, and editing, just makes for an immensely entertaining video. I hope to see much more of this!

I watched quite a few card tricks videos out there but yours are by far - and I mean BY FAR - the most informative. The fact that you break down your actions into small chunks really helps with understanding what's going on. Keep up the good work! :)

Ricky Jay and his 52 Assistants is one of my favorite magic shows, you really capture his flair and skill! Love these videos.

i really like that fact that you included a blooper. super dexterity amazing rythum infact you almost showed all main false deals in just one video well done Daniel

I have been doing card sleights for my entire life. On a very basic level. Never done a show, aside from a few very patient and kind friends. It's been a while since I've picked up a deck though. Life and all. But this guy is really inspiring. "Thanks" from a fumbling fella.

Your skills with cards is absolutely amazing!! Thanks for the very entertaining videos.

That is amazing man, so smoothly looks like everything’s off the top

Damn bro, you are SO GOOD! Tbh I NEVER saw anyone do the center deal SOOOOOOOO smoothly!!! Keep up the good work man

very good center deal. And I think you're spot on with those hours commited to your craft. Focus is a superpower, and working on that, what is better than slight of hand 🙂

You are the best man! Keep the videos coming

Super Video Daniel. All good wishes to you!

Your wizardry is freaking me out man lol. that control you pulled, putting the card on the bottom from the center is f-ing AWESOME. thanks for the great content, I'm enjoying it.

First let me say that I love your work. Watch all your videos. This is one of my favs. The mistake at the end is gold. Please keep up the amazing videos.

You can hear a difference in sound when he deals a card from the top versus a card from the center.

True. But this is in "a vacuum" so to speak. If you were in a card game setting, just normal background noise would mask that.

I really like that you left the oopise on this one. I'm wondering how often, if ever, something like this has happened live and if it does are you able to recover and hide it quickly enough?

I cannot see how you do it, but I could hear the difference, with the speakers turned up fully and no other sounds............. you're safe my friend. Bravo.

Awesome chops bro!!! Thank you!!!

Love the hangar error. Thanks for keeping that in.

It's good to see a young magician with so much dedication to the craft. I was privileged to see Richard Turner incorporate the Centre Deal into a routine at Blackpool a few years ago. Keep up the good work.

you are the Slight Of Hand ! Awesome !

So much talent. You've almost perfected the craft.

There is a pretty significant sound difference from when you center deal vs top deal. But still very impressive, love your videos.

Great technique Daniel!

Awesome, awesome stuff! The only way I can "see" The difference is in the sound of the centre deal at the end of the video. Subscribed! 👍🏻

7:46 this where the Mr. Roy get shot. But I'm pretty sure he can trick the bullet with another deal😅

There is no other way to say this, but what you do is true magic. Magical even. Knowing the technique is one thing. Doing it is another. And no matter if I know it or not, your presentation still brings out the magic. idk but my intuition is telling me to say this, forgive me if I am wrong. I have a feeling you think you will be a forever student, but one day you will come to realize that you are the master you seek. anyway, ur a genius. keep on keeping on! :D

That is a SUPER clean center. Well done.

Love it this is great

Dude, keep going and you're going to be as good as Richard.

your shoulder looks better I can see .. its good to see U my friend

Just great on every level.

One of the best I've ever seen. I know the mechanics but couldn't do it right

Daniel Roy and Richard Turner... 2 greats!..... and Richard does it blind!!

That hanger was the by far, the best move.

Amazing but there is a different sound when he deals the card before the king each time. (I think) ahhh very interesting. The sound was made when he WAS dealing the kings. He hadn't dealt them to himself. Still absolutely brilliant.

Richard Turner is the GOAT. you are extremely skilled. One thing he says to spot a cheat, how much hands movement dealing. RT does all that without the back n forth hand motion. dealer is moving the cards= problem. Hand must stay in one place. No Vegas dealer is allowed to deal that way.

absolutely mad impressive skills. this is also the narc from polar express

This guy is an absolute legend

Every Daniel Roy video: Interesting? Yes. Did I learn something? Also yes. In a video that says 'how to do X', did I learn how to do X. No. He actually didn't say that "They say that 3 is really all you need..."

Thanks sir. Do you think in upcoming videos, you will upload a toturial on bottom deal?

"Caught a hanger, Sarge!"

So good

Please do more bloopers 😃

Darn, you are good

Great!

Would be awesome if when you are showing tricks you could have 1 camera angle that is off in the corner that never cuts, as anytime someone watches a magic breakdown and then see's a cut it is like "okay well maybe they can do what they're saying but also they could have just cut and arranged the cards and then continued". Just food for thought! I can see you're doing a lot of what you say though, just would be that cherry on top!

5:34 what move are you doing here, bc wow. That is such a clean control.

Dude is an absolute card legend

You are the next Ricky Jay !!!!

lol you really ended the video with a cliff-hanger... didn't ya

What interests me most about card magic is how many manipulations you can do with them and the therapy it provides me. Watching your level of expertise is so encouraging! What would be your book/intro of choice in one interested in card magic artistry?

If you want i have jason englands center deal dm me @poshfer on ig

During the first deal with 4 kings face up (ends at about 0:45) 3/4 center deals you could distinctively hear a difference in the sound of the card being placed on the table. You may not be able to see sleight of hand but keep your ears open lol, maybe the rest won’t be the same though, I’ve only seen 45 seconds haha Edit: 1:19 I knew all 4 kings were in the far most left players hand off of sound alone. Practice on the center deals for sure(maybe the force of placing it down? Or pressure of grabbing it? I’ve never done any tricks to be honest I don’t know, but I know that’s no easy task but I’d suggest maybe practicing center deals with a decibel meter next to you (establish the baseline for a regular deal first) and improve on making the center deal sound the same Edit 2: So when he was dealing out that 2nd hand I did hear a few suspicious deals on the player to the right of the leftmost and for his (Daniel) hand. But the 4 Kings on the left were loudest , so I just thought yep 4 kings right there. So I didn’t necessarily suspect the aces he revealed at 1:27 BUT I wasn’t surprised either, I was like oh that’s why I had false positives when listening for the Kings. What do you guys think, can you accurately guess yourself by ear and sound? Let me know if you read my comment before watching the video, cheers Edit 3: 2:40, well I guess there really is no reason to practice making it sound better except for challenge 😂 Edit 4: 3:33 AIGHT THAT ONE I HEARD AND SEEN BRO! No hate but I swear hahaha Edit 5: 4:44 didn’t hear or see at first but after watching a 2nd time you can hear that the 2nd deals have little to no noise and the normal deals have a loud noise(the aces) this follows the same pattern as the other cheat with center deal, of the cheated cards given out having a loud noise. So when at a poker table, if you hear a deal that is distinctively louder than others, it’s highly suspect of him cheating a card(center deal or 2nd deal so far shown). Especially if one hand has multiple occurrences of a loud deal. Now he could throw you off by purposefully making his regular deals louder, and 2nd deals louder, or by of course making the center deals quieter and just doing the regular deal gently with less pressure or whatever when he’s doing 2nd deals. Edit 6: Well that was the end of the video pretty much, I didn’t see you swap the center deal to bottom, but bottom deals are really noticeable like you said. Again no hate bro, I know Jack shit about sleight of hand, I’m just letting you know what I observed, and I can tell you are really passionate about cards and if no one told you what I said above ^^^ I thought it’d be something you want to read. Like what people see and how to make it better. (Give you something new to practice if you didn’t practice it already maybe haha) And other people might take a listen see for themselves idk. Anyways whoever is reading have a good day 👍🏼 EDIT 7: Found some people in the comments who noticed the same thing, and someone replied in an actual casino or card game thered likely be enough background noise for you not to be able to hear the difference between hands dealt. (like fans and AC ambient noise,people talking, maybe other tables dealing hands etc.) And that’s a fair argument. Some other people said it might not even be possible to make it quieter (could be I don’t know much about cards) but you’ve definitely got it nailed down very good bro. There’s probably more of a chance of them not hearing it in a live setting than hearing it. The odds are still there theyd hear it though, but if this were a poker table and I was betting on it, in a live setting at the casino yeah they probably wont hear shit. On the video though yeah

It is beautiful and invisible. It takes thousands of hours to master this technique as well 👍

I like trick magic card. Thanks

@@Alpysf There are a number of good techniques out there. Jason England's version just fit my hands really well. I also know him personally and he's been extremely helpful to me in learning the move, which was very generous of him. Keep in mind that false deals depend so much on the texture/structure of your hands that you will have to adapt any given technique to fit your own hands.

I remember in fourth grade me and my friends used to play yugioh and I always had my best card on top of my deck I would keep my thumb on the best card then I would pull four cards which one of those cards was my best card

Even at the slowest playback i can't notice,.. too smooth
