The Five Roads to Vegas by Michael Breggar

Give your close-up, parlor, or stage set engaging plots built around audience choices, predictions, and playful presentations. In The Five Roads to Vegas, Michael Breggar brings together magic designed to entertain, with clear descriptions and carefully written patter to help you shape each effect in your own style.

Use the title effect as an audience-participation opener: five spectators stop you while you deal cards, and their selections reveal a royal flush. The book also includes routines for stand-up, stage, parlor, close-up, and walk-around performance.
