One of the best I saw like that was where the card was selected and the magish said, 'Show the card to the guy on your right, now show it to the guy on your left, and let's not leave out the guy behind you, show it to him as well'. Of course everyone turned round at the same time giving the magish more than enough time to do all the dodgy biz in the world.

oh... that is a combination of solid GOLD and absolute frustration that i simply never considered that myself. i will DEFINATELY use this...

talk about a "get out of jail card" for anyone who's "PASS" is a little rusty LOL!
