The magician challenges a pair of spectators to a game of Texas Hold'em Poker and lets one of them deal the cards, but manages to predict everything about the outcome, including his win with a straight!
The title, which is intended to mean 'Sensory Perceptions for 3 Poker Players', presents an experiment in which the magician, after showing and shuffling a pack of cards, plays a game of poker with two members of the audience. By letting one of the two spectators act as the dealer and following the rules of Texas Hold'em - without even looking at his own cards - he will know the hands held by the two players and will win the hand by, incredibly, revealing that he has made a straight!
Strengths
- The effect requires no technical skill whatsoever and is entirely automatic.
- A secret stack is used, one that is little known even to most magicians.
