Re: Penn & Teller: Fool Us
I did think the trick that did fool them... IIRC the trick didn't fool them. The card was forced on both the woman and Jonathan, which is why the knife was most likely genuine. My housemates and I noticed the force on the woman the first time through (he shuffles through a few more cards before giv...

Re: Penn & Teller: Fool Us
The royal flush was neat, I've no idea how he managed to get hold of extra cards with the same pattern on them as P&T's cards. Yeah that was good too. You can definitely see something a bit dodgy when he deals the 5 flush cards, they don't come from the top of the pack, but still no idea where ...

The second trick on this week's was pretty impressive I thought. I don't get why P&T didn't bring up the fact that his right hand just disappeared under the table for ages in a really obvious fashion. The cards looked pretty weird, I reckon they had iron filings in them or something and he turn...
