Dammit, I've just fallen for it haven't I :(

Do you take two playing cards or beermats, one slides under one over, clamp the glass turn it over?
I guess the glass not getting touched rules that out :evil:

How about you PM me for a fiver, lol.

I can't work it out and while the thread may stumble towards giving a trick away I think this thread proves why you should buy the book.
These are exactly the kind of things drunk men love to ponder in a pub :)
Just don't tell the women how dumb we are ;)

I think this book could be classed as a "scammers bible" Ive bought a couple of books on pub tricks but they dont even come close to mr Zenons fine publication!!!

For fun and for drinks are the best bets....


Probably best not to try them in Manchester then, lol.

The Magic For Bartenders book is good for that, not really ways to win money but most of them are easily adapted. Not sure if it is still available, it was handed down to me.

The worlds best simple bar tricks is a good one aswell. Think i paid about £6 from amazon a while back. Theres a few good little fillers to do between card tricks in there. :lol:

Just read this on Magicweek:

100 Ways to Win a Tenner has just been reprinted for a third time (most shops have sold out in the run up to Christmas) so Paul is currently working on a follow-up to be published next year.


Get your credit cards ready!

Also:

Paul Zenon has just finished recording a brand new hour-long special Paul Zenon's White Magic which is set in Sweden and Lapland and is being screened by SVT (Sweden's BBC) on New Year's Eve at 8.20pm (SVT Channel 1) and at 11.20pm on SVT Channel 2. ITV have bought the show for the UK (transmission dates to be advised)

Just had word that the long awaited follow up is imminent! 'Dirty Tricks' will be out 27th August and Amazon are doing a good price on it if you order it via Paul's website as of next week. http://www.paulzenon.com would be a good starting point!

Also bear in mind that 'Best Ever Magic Tricks' is being screened on ITV this Saturday at 5.35pm with bits from PZ himself. Enjoy wathcing this becasue Paul says he's never actually seen it yet so he'll probably be glued to the telly like the rest of us mere mortals!
