Do you use the center deal solely for gambling demonstrations, or do you belive that this move can incorporated in magic routines as well?

What still excites you about gambling slights?

Are there any slights that have been created by yourself (not just alterations)?

What came first, magic or slights?

Jason, have you ever used your gambling techniques to cheat in a card game? And if you have did you get in trouble?

As a card dealer, have you ever used anything similar to a "hold out" gimmick or anything of that nature? If so do you feel guilty of it?

Are you working on any DVD projects with t11?

How long each day should one practice in order to become good at dealing cards?

Thanks,

In the 1-on-1, you discuss the difficulty of the move and its relation to other moves such as the table faro. In your opinion, why is it important to learn things of such great difficulty, if other easier methods work just as well, other than the obvious reasons such as self-gratification?

Also in the 1-on-1, there is a lot of talk about the history surrounding the move. Could you talk a little bit about how knowing the history of a move may help with the work on the sleight itself?

Finally, what does it take to perfect something so impossible? I mean, look at a person like Ricky Jay. He's said himself that he's still always learning, but he is clearly at a level beyond what simple practice can achieve. There's clearly something more going on there. What does it take to get to that point?
