A perfectly chosen title for this gentleman, though some would have doubted that Richard Turner was even real.

Richard Turner has been:

  • shark hunting
  • flown in several different types of military fighter aircraft
  • has experience training people on the trapeze
  • (Jamie Lee Curtis for the Circus of the Stars television show).

    Richard also managed to set a world record for coin rolling. By rolling four sets of doubles, he gets eight coins at once racing across his knuckles. When he wants to show off, he can even get some of the coins moving forwards while others move backward over his hand.

    It’s an unbelievable display of skill, and now he's now coming to share it with you. Richard will teach the particulars on the second deal, bottom deal and the center deal.

    According to what everyone wants, he will give details for palming, brushes, stacks, false shuffles and cuts, shifts, card switches and more.

    Richard will also share stories and take requests on the particular slights the attendees are interested in. Some say Richard Turner is one of the greatest living card mechanics in the world.

    Here's your opportunity to meet the ultimate gambler. If you derive joy from card magic or gambling artifice - this lecture is for you.
