On Jason Englands Bottom Deal preview he does this demonstration with the 4 aces. Is this a persuado Bottom Deal routine or a real one? Ive always wondered.

Jason England's Bottom Deal Demo

I think what you're talking about is a consecutive bottom dealing demo, so they are all real bottoms.
false false deals are actually used quite a lot in gambling demos. There are routines that fake centre deals by doing bottoms or greeks, etc.
I have no doube that Jason can do it for real. But I thought it would be easy to fake it. Becuase he needs to cop cards and what not.

I recall a fantastic story about a magician wowing some high ups in the magic societies with his technical skill. He was able to deal seconds, bottoms, centres and greeks perfectly. He was, of course, using a stacked deck. They were so embarrassed that they angrily left the room.
He does not need to cop any cards for the bottom deal demo he has on his 1-on-1 trailer. The method is stunningly simple.
Yeah, instead of one Ace he had 4 on the table, with the AOS on top and face up.. Big whoop.
The reason I don't like this demo is because the spectator can be thinking exactly what we are:
"Did he actually do a bottom deal?"
"Did he actually do a bottom deal?"
I understand that to be the whole point of the demo -- to demonstrate consecutive bottoms so deceptively, that you question whether he actually dealt bottoms for the first cards.
He shows all the cards in a ribbon spread, you see no aces in the cards. So, it would be easier to put them on the bottom un-noticed that putting them on the top, yes?
So, they're all bottom deals.
So, they're all bottom deals.
I thought he had the 3 aces copped, then after he put the AoS on bottom, he puts the other aces on bottom from cop.

No I don't believe he did. I mean not to expose any secrets but I think he showed both his hands empty, so it must be the idea described above.
Not to reveal anything but he's doing a strike bottom-deal. He talks about this in the 1 on 1 and says that he uses this technique when doing consecutive bottoms like in the teaser. I personally find this method to be the easiest, its quick and super effective. And as far as spectators questioning if it was really a bottom deal, simply show them again with the aces face up, thus showing your skillz with card cheating
