Jimi Hendrix reportedly had a guitar in hand during just about every waking moment of his life. I suspect that Ricky Jay has carried a deck of cards with him since he was old enough to lift a deck of cards. I mean, how many tens of thousands of hours does it take to become that adroit?
(I also enjoyed the “lecture” portions of the video, about the history of sleight-of-hand, and the terminology of dealing cheats.)
Ricky is an amazing man. Check out the documentary Deceptive Practice on Netflix for more of the stuff you liked.
