I have seen two different people deal out hands like you mentioned. Once in magic shop and once over at Larry Trapp's place in Newport Ky. The first time, at the Magic shop, it was with his cards so, even though it was impressive I wasn't totally shocked. The guy at Larry's ran a dealers school in Northern Ky. He had Larry get a deck of cards. He shuffled them and cut them a bunch and then dealt the three of us four Queens, four kings and four aces. That wasn't the best though. he flipped over the deck, looked at it, then flipped it back . He shuffled the deck, cut it a few times. and put it down. He started to turn over the cards, off the top, one at a time. He said "my key card is the King of Clubs". When I get to that one I'll call the next few. The King of Clubs was flipped over......and he correctly called and then flipped over the next "15" cards. Our jaws all dropped. How does someone do that? That wasn't his deck by the way. He said if a dealer would be cheating from a deck or a blackjack dealer from a shoe, he can tell from two tables away. I learned one thing. Don't play cards with strangers.
