Simplicity, Audacity and Bluff by Val Andrews

Simplicity, Audacity and Bluff by Val Andrews

 

This could very well be Val Andrew’s most important work. He describes with several great examples and historical effects, how one can entertain and amaze employing nothing but simple audacious ruses or outright bluffs. If there is a showman in you, you will love these effects and ideas. If you rather rely on your bottom deal and classic pass, then you will probably not be able to appreciate the value of this information.
