If you ever wanted to learn how to deal the second card in the deck while making it look like you are dealing the top card–this is your best opportunity.
Follow Simon Lovell as he takes you step-by-step through the art of the second deal. He discusses more nuances, subtleties and variations than you probably ever knew existed. He doesn’t sugarcoat the work but gives you all the tools you need to master this powerful sleight. But, he doesn’t stop there. Once you begin mastering the second deal you are treated to some routines which you can practice. And as a finale Simon discusses some of the second deal’s more nefarious uses.
As a special bonus, the book includes many historical gambling-themed graphics as well as the history of the second deal, which dates back to the 1500s. Also included are reproductions of important contributions to the second deal, including excerpts from Robert-Houdin’s "Card-Sharping Exposed" and S. W. Erdnase’s "Expert At The Card Table."

Dear Customer,
Welcome to our new website!! It still looks very much like the old one, but it is far better, with no bugs and keeps us up to date with the ever changing payment security protocols.
Being a brand new website unfortunately means that your old account no longer exists and will have to re-register your details to check out. I apologise for the inconvenience, but I had no way of transferring your account data over.
If you still have a valid gift voucher or if you think you still have some reward points, unfortunately these won’t work on the new site, so please email me at info@propdog.co.uk and I’ll create a coupon code for the value of your points or gift voucher. I still have access to the old site data, so we can always check for you if you are unsure.
I apologise for any inconvenience and thanks for sticking with us!
