    As Boris Wild said just being able to perform on that stage for P & T is a win in and of itself. So grats for getting the chance to be there.

      The best part was that his patter was quite smooth. If all the choices were real (as Penn said they were), then that means he couldn't predict or plan which cards would be selected and how he would describe them in advance. This makes it far harder to have consistent and unbroken patter than another magician who forces every choice and can therefore script the entire trick and practice/memorize the entire thing.

    What's amazing on so many of these performances, is Penn's ability to "code" a solution so quickly, on the fly. That's never mentioned and while mundane at times, others, it's pure genius the way he slips in the key words.

    I'm not a magician but I watch these clips often. From the very first move, I knew what you were doing. I watched you do the same move three more times. I knew what the move was. But damn, I could not actually see you do it - so smooth and fast. Remarkable level of skill. And that final face up swap from the 10 clubs to the 3 of clubs - don't know how you managed that one at all. Amazing work, wish you the very best of luck!!

      In case you're wondering, it was cut intentionally to get rid of a kind of clumsy code from Penn. Sometimes he makes the allusions too thinly-veiled, too easy to understand or google, and this was definitely one of those times.

    Watching Penn and Teller as much as I have, when a magician tells me their pocket has no flaps or hidden compartments, my immediate reaction is "that card isn't going in that pocket". The magic word is 'misdirection', and it is an absolute joy when I have those little reactions. I don't think I'm spoiling anything by saying that, either; it's pretty obvious that you're just pretending to put the card in.
    For the life of me, though, I have no idea how you're palming it and hiding it on its way back out of the pocket to do the rest of the trick. It doesn't look like your hand is in any way holding anything, or taking up enough space to hide a card at all. That's why I think knowing a trick doesn't take away from it. The execution is just as entertaining... and even someone like me who has zero skill or talent for magic tricks can appreciate it.
