The Ultimate Work (2 DVD Set)
by Tony Giorgio
A visual treatise on handmucking or the arcane art of the hold-out man photographed with state of the art High-Definition video cameras.
TONY GIORGIO the man who appears in this set of two DVDs reveals the authentic sleight of hand employed by .hold-out men.. TONY GIORGIO spent more than 20 years in the demimonde of card and dice hustlers.
During those years he met and broke bread with literally hundreds of handmuckers machine men bust-out men steers front-men spot finders two-dealers cellar-dealers spreaders cold-deckers run-up men check coppers paper-players painters scratch players slick sleeve and bean shooter players from Portland Maine south to Miami Beach Florida west to California and north to Alaska.
TONY GIORGIO played cards across the United States on the Canadian prairies in Cuba before the revolution and in the cantinas of Mexican border towns. He .moved. in private clubs private games floating games athletic clubs poolrooms card rooms and casinos. He moved on the unsophisticated and the sophisticated.
GIORGIO played poker with the hoi-polloi blue collar workers rodeo riders and cowboys in Texas New Mexico Wyoming and Arizona with miners in Montana longshoremen with grappling hooks in their belts and New Orleans pimps sporting pearl-handled pistols. He played in limit-games for pocket change and in games played for high stakes. During his travels and play he learned from the top hold-out men in the world and invented and used many of his own moves which he now reveals.
In these DVDs which run over two hours GIORGIO demonstrates and teaches the MACHINE BREAK and his many original variations. He shows never before exposed CARD-STEALS. There are heretofore unrevealed BLACKJACK and HOLE CARD-SWITCHES MULTIPLE CARD SWITCHES explanations and demonstrations of CAPPING THE DECK CAPPING TO THE BOTTOM CLEANING-UP SPRE
