A magician has several audience members cut the deck, then tells a story that ends with the cards revealing a straight flush against their poker hands.
0:00 Cut the cards, and what this does is changes, uh, the whole order of the deck. 0:03 So even if you were watching, you can't actually work out what's going on. 0:06 And after that's happened, what they do is they'll cut the cards, and what this does is changes the whole sequence of the deck. 0:11 For example, if you were to cut here at a 6, for example, if you were to cut just a few cards below, you'd be at a, uh, at 8, therefore changing the whole sequence of the deck. 0:18 That's why the cards get cut. What's your name, man? 0:20 Jane. 0:20 Jane, just give the cards a cut for me, though. Just give them a cut. 0:23 Very good. And what this does is will change the whole order. 0:25 Give the cards a cut for me, please. Very good. Can you lean forward, give the cards a cut, mate. 0:30 Very good. Now I'm going to tell you a little story. It's a little bit of fun, um, about what happened to me the other night. 0:34 I was actually out and I met up with a couple of girls. Uh, they were 2 redheads. 0:37 I was chatting to them for, I don't know, about, uh, 1, 2, 3 minutes. 0:40 I met up with their friends. They were 2 brunettes. They said, what's your name? 0:42 I said, it's James with a J. Don't forget that. They said, rightio, James, where you headed tonight? 0:45 I said, I'm not too sure. They said, come with us to 673 King Street. 0:49 I said, sounds like a plan. They said there's a cover charge, though, of 25 bucks. 0:52 I said, 25 bucks? They said, yep, 25. You with me so far? Good. 0:57 At this point, my phone rang, right? So I cut in my pocket to find my phone. 1:00 When I did, do you know what I said? I said, hello, James speaking. 1:03 My friend said, James, where you headed tonight? I said, I'm not too sure. 1:05 I've met these girls. I'm going on some place called 700 and something King Street. 1:08 The girls knew that was wrong. They said, no, no, no, it's 673 King. 1:12 I said, I'm sorry, mate, I've actually got that wrong. It's 673 King. 1:15 He said, I'll be there soon. Is there a cover charge? You remember how much it was, folks? 1:19 That's right. He said, all I've got on me is 10. I said, don't lie. 1:22 He goes, I go, I've got 40, but that's all I've got. Can you lend me some money? 1:24 I said, no problem. He said, James, you're a good person. At this point, I rock him inside the Princess Theatre. 1:29 Nobody was trusting me, especially you. So he cut the cards, and he said, let's play poker. 1:33 I said, sure, what would you like? He said, a full house, 2 4s and 3 8s. 1:35 I said, I'll see what I can do. I came over there, and Jenny wanted 4 9s, which is a pretty good hand as well. 1:42 I wanted you to win, mate, so I gave you the 4 aces with an 8. 1:44 That's 1, that's two, that's three, that's four. You went to go take all the money from the table. 1:47 You thought you'd won. I said, what the hell are you doing? You said, James, you couldn't possibly beat that. 1:53 I said, the only thing it does, mate, is a straight flush. That's what I've got, and that's my story. 2:00 Thank you very much.
