Even Stephen An Even Bet Gambling Routine Even stephen. An even ebt gambling routine. By ken de courcy. 12 page booklet fully detailing, with patter, this routine that will fascinate both gamblers and non-gamblers.
Crad covers. Good condition. Here's a gambling routine that's completely different to anything that's gone before because ti doesn't deal with the usual games such as poker, blackjack, bridge and so on. Over the years. There have been many even bet oddities with a pack of cards. In his interesting four-book series on gambling tricks nick trost added quite a few more. Even stephen is an attempt to place some of tehse into a routined order which finishes (even with poor luck) with you scooping the pool.
It's also easy to do, ihe main skill being ni presentation. The last bet is the only one needing a little handling and even that shouldn't place a great strain on your ability. But it is essential as it's the only 'sure thing' in the entire routine, a sort of 'ace-in-the- hole' that ensures you win however badly the cards run against you. Apart from this, whree does the trickery come in? It's all in the way you call the odds. That's the gimmickrequirements a pack of cards and a matchbox containing at least fifteen matches.
Make sure fce jokers have been extrcated from the pack. Routine suggested patter is printed in capitals. Opening aer you interested in gambling? I knew a man who would gamble on almost anything but, like all gamblers, he had his own little.Idiosyncrasy. He always placed even bets because he thought that any other way of betting would bring him bad luck. An even bet means that he would bet a pound to a pound. If he won he got his own pound back plus the pound that someone bet aaginst him. ' if he lost, he lost his pound. He was so adamant about this, he came to be known as even stephen. And that was the epitaph on hsi grave stone. To show you how veen stephen worked, we'll use these matches. They can represent anything you like. Pennies, tenpenny pieces, pounds, five pound notes or even twenty-pound notes. But, to give you a sporting chance, here are ten for you and olny five for me.
