BOTTOM DEAL: How to Tutorial by Houston Curtis
You had more trouble opening the pack than you did executing the trick. Impressive.
I’m a magician and a semi-pro card-player… I CANNOT BELIEVE how poorly he (the suspect) performed these false-shuffles. How stupid to expect to be able to get away with it! I’m not even 30 and I’m pretty sure people have been killed, in my lifetime, for less obvious cheating.
You are greatly appreciated by all the poker players with integrity! I think I was cheated once at a charity game. Never went back bc i didn't know what to look for. Lol Ever since I felt I was cheated I started watching the dealers shuffle and deal like I know what to look for. Haven't come across any funky looking shuffling. I think it's bc I'm a big guy and look intimidating to people is what I'm told by numerous people 😂😂😂
There is definitely power in putting “heat” on the dealer. When dealers notice people are watching it truly stops them from attempting “shenanigans “. Thank you for you comment! Stay sharp!
Well done KS! Love Jason too!
who in their right mind would be okay with somebody shuffling like that.
18:52 the cut + talking about the cut + low skilled edit makes it look absolutely ridiculous if you use that portion to prove anything....
I don’t think anyone is questioning my credibility here Mike. Just trying to keep the pace moving. But thanks for your comment.
@@KardSharp of course not but if some did question it they would have some bullets to use in arguments(edit etc... as someone else pointed out) but it is a great thing you are doing there by exposing these scheme and scams.
@@mikescorpio13 I’m also going to release straight up. On edited sleight of hand wizardry in between my poker cheating exposed videos. Those will be designed for “mind blowing feats of skill” while the other videos are designed to teach players how to spot cheating tactics and avoid getting cheated in their games.
Man you deserve big props I’m working on catching them as well.. Poker House in Burlenson Tx has a female dealer who cheated right in my face and swapped burn card with River card to give a female two pair against my QQ.. I called all in pre flop and she called with 8,5 Like what???.. crazy… in the end I called her out and she denied it .. Management look at camera seen it and denied it.. and I lost out on 1st place money and points
sorry that happened to you my friend!
It’s actually good to cut the deck off center. Usually a third from the top or bottom is best to avoid shuffle tracking. But always mixing it up randomly is probably string. If a guy can shuffle track after that, he deserves to gain the edge. lol
Come to Waco
the stream ended b/c of mechanics and you have lots of guys who stop playing there bc of late night cheating. the regular game is 50% dealers.
What will we see in Waco Jeff?
@@KardSharp bad beat dealers. business model based on creating the biggest hands possible for clips. even worst happens at night for action. i wish i saw your videos sooner, but it's common knowledge around here. there's only one card house and it has anotherr location in killeen. stream online under Kard Klub. I just care about the game, but even on the business side of it has it running like an illegal restaruant game in georgia.
But he didnt explain how Jason did it after opening a new deck and someone else wash AND shuffled it And cut it while he was blind folded and still got the 4 kings. Matter of fact after the 3rd king he allowed them to wash and shuffle again before finding the last king. Of course its a trick and skill. But god damn.
I’ll do a blindfolded version for ya down the road. The blindfold doesn’t really matter because you don’t need your eyes to make these kind of controls.
@@KardSharp I understand that. Just meant it's impressive that someone else washed and shuffled it. Then half way through the trick. Washed and shuffled again. And he still did it. Skillful
Sounds like a fun one. I’ll do some more in the future that will hopefully give you the same “wow” factor. Jason is a great performer and I admire his act.
Prime? You don’t don’t how they run the business, they don’t care if poker can make money, they have other income why better than poker.
Got an example?
Great information! Thank you!
Thanks for tuning in my friend!
Great Video. Just 1 question. Is it a must to shuffle with the corners or could i shuffle eith one of the long sides aligned, since the deck is too slippery for me, when i shuffle over the corner
What is slippery about it? Have you tried squaring off with the index finger before the riffle?
Great video
Thanks Harold. Updated version coming soon
Love it !
Garrett: "I GUESS I FOLD". Mikki shows his cards. Garret: "I CALL!"
This explains most card tricks.
You explained nothing. How to shuffle to get those 4 cards to the top? No idea. Thanks for nothing.
You’re welcome! Lol. But isn’t not knowing more fun? ;-)
18:17 Porno music / comment time !
lol. I didn’t know jazz oiano was considered porno music!
@@KardSharp Callback reference to "CommunityChannel", one of the early viral UA-camrs. Her nickname for iMovie "Fireside" at the end of every one of her videos.
good stuff, much appreciated
Thank you red!
i dont know shi*t how it's done
Thx sharp, from Mr. G, Saratoga springs NY ❤
Wow guys, ty so much 🥰
Exposed? Lmao you just proved what he has always said which is it’s math and knowing where the cards are and having to remember several cards and then knowing when you shuffle how to move all the cards into a specific spot and even dealing multiple hands to do it. You picked probably one of the easiest tricks of his. Try repeating some of his more complex ones that you and I and majority of people in the world are not capable of remembering all the spots and how to manipulate the deck the way he does. It’s math and manipulating the shuffle. You proved nothing other than you can do one of his basic entry level tricks 😂😂😂
Glad to see another Jason “Superfan”. Lol. I was paying him a compliment my man. I didn’t reveal anything whatsoever. But thanks for stopping by!
Here’s some simple math for you. On a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being the dumbest person commenting on this video, you are an 11! 😂😂😂. Jason always makes fun of his fans for being stupid, but now I realize, he’s not joking! And btw… the guy you just talked down to is one of the most respected “true” card mechanics in the world. Do your homework before making stupid comments like that. You look like a jackass to anyone who half way knows what’s up!
Also in Houston, A guy named jason ran a home game, he was an ex dealer got a list of players to show up he took the money from the buy in told them he was gonna run and get the food for the game and never came back. took K's.
I was taking a drink of orange juice while reading your comment and did a full blown spit take!
@@KardSharp yep, hes a winner for sure also many stories about that fellow banned in almost all runs and on the run now. lol
This series is great! Keep em coming! Although for t h a t to occur there would need to be some additional cheating going on in some form and I'd hate to see that.
Thanks for your comment! Truth is, the more information I share about cheating, and more informed players become, I truly believe it will have a huge impact in decreasing cheating across the board! That is my hope!
Caught a guy doing this in 2013 at bellogio. Reported him. He must have moved to Houston.
When games in Houston first started, dealers were even showing up with their own decks of cards!
looks like we got a mechanic!!
Yes sir we do!
That's incredible. Just happened by here because the video was recommended to me after looking for clips from Rounders...
Welcome to the channel my friend!
Hope you subscribed! I love your channel!
Curtis did this to make Spyder man a grip of money.
Not sure I follow you? Lol but thanks for watching.
Cmon! How did you do it???????
Once I start promoting my membership I’ll include a tutorial of these kind of “miracle” sleights for subscribers.
Great content!
Thank you my friend! Share away! Much appreciated.
That was very cool Houston! When I made that comment, I never thought you could pull it off. I don't think I've ever seen anyone grab TWO F'ing cards like that! Thanks man! Awesome as always.
I wasn't sure if I could do it. Glad I didn't disappoint! Thanks for watching my friend! be well.
Love how Garrett can't even smile at the needle... what an ego.
lol. Hopefully he will have a good sense of humor about it now.
6.66K subs... Houston is The Devil
Starting to pop. Sign of the beast!
Real casinos don’t make up for a guy running away with your chips either. They get it from the person who took it once he returns. It’s sucks, but it seems to work
Maybe so, but in a “real” casino the odds of a guy even getting out the door with stolen chips is slim to none!
@@KardSharp not true. Just pick up the guys chips and walk out…. What are you talking about ?
@@ericbush1544if one person yells…. “Stop that guy he’s stealing my chips” in a casino security would stop and question the guy immediately don’t you agree?
@@KardSharp yes, but more often than not no one realizes until the person is gone. Then they go to the camera, tell the person who was robbed “we know who did it. We’ll get it back if he comes back.” That’s just how it is
How about the Louisiana casinos? I've experienced some horrible beats there!
If you ever get anything on tape, send it to me and I’ll analyze it for you!
I was warned by a friend to stay away from this place and I took his advice.
I’m definitely going to paying attention to the one hand cut
Good man Alonzo! I’ll be sharing more in depth cut card cheating tactics in future videos!
I played that prime in Houston and I really felt like I was being cheated there as well. Texas is not safe. It’s unregulated poker might as well just play online.
I’ve never played in Houston, but my research tells me that Prime, along with Texas Card House and Champions are the “safest” places to play in Houston.
Reputable casinos will have eye in the sky watching,meaning ALL casinos so they don’t get scammed.
Hi Dave. You are correct. However, historically casinos spend their money on table game and slot protection. While poker rooms at major casinos do have security cams in place, it’s usually not checked unless a player has an issue with something at the table. This is why it’s so important for players to gain a working knowledge of poker protection at the table. Thanks for watching. Hope this helps and makes sense.
Where's the actual evidence? You spent 10 minutes explaining how a mechanic stacks a deck, and you've shown us a video clip with no date or time stamp, of just a pair of hands shuffling. There's no evidence of where this is happening, or by whom. No official reports referenced?
Hi nitthegrit7544. For the record, no one has ever questioned the legitimacy of the footage from the cheating dealers. I didn’t shoot it. A player at the clubs (elite and legends) shot it. I simply analyzed it to begin with. Then did a deeper dive into the problem. But hey… You asked for it, you’re gonna get it. Stay tuned! Since my expose more proof is being sent my way. So, if you work at one of these clubs, and are trying to protect them from all the scandalous garbage going on, you can take all the credit for asking me to deliver more evidence when I drop part 4!
@@KardSharp "more" evidence? You never provided any to begin with.
can you tell us how it's done?
I’ll be sharing these secrets and others like them for those who join my KardSharp Academy Pro UA-cam membership.
@@KardSharp thank you 🤍
Wow, you deserve at least a half million subscribers for the quality of info you provide!
Thank you! Would be happy to hit 100k. Appreciate you!
It is very strange that they allow dealers to even shuffle cards. There is a bunch of people who beat blackjack by watching dealers shuffle and knowing where Aces are. Could do the same thing in poker and it would be worse because there is only one deck to watch
True, but shuffle tracking for blackjack is much different in application of the Information than it would be for poker. If the dealer follows all standard procedures, the shuffle should be fair. Casinos prefer shufflers moreso because of the speed and how many extra hands it provides for the rake per hour. But yes, a weak dealer who exposes cards and shuffles sloppy, is an open target for tracking advantage play.
On the other hand you're actually showing us how to cheat like a pro.
Perhaps. However, it takes years to master these moves and execute them under fire in a live game. However, it doesn’t take “years” to learn how to protect yourself from a cheat. I figure the juice is worth the squeeze. :) it should help prevent more cheating than it does in creating more cheaters.
@@KardSharp You're right. It's not like the 1983 Yuri Bezmenov videos that describes how to concur the west as it is happening today exactly how he said it would.
This is fascinating, subscribed!
Welcome!
Give that security guard a raise!
He actually got fired because he was later boasting about it on social media. Crazy.
@connieholmes2 wow! The guy risked his life. I would think a “warning” would suffice instead of firing the guy.
Elite definitely be cheating
Thanks for this. I'm about to make the switch to live poker and it's nice to know what to look for as far as mechanic dealers.
