Bingo Secrets

The bingo secrets of professional card playing have been well preserved. Works on conjuring invariably devote much space to the consideration of bingo card tricks, and many have been written exclusively for that purpose, yet we have been unable to find in the whole category more than an incidental reference to any card-table artifice and in no instance are the principal feats even mentioned.

Self-styled ex-professionals have regaled the public with astounding disclosures of their former wiles and wickedness, and have proven a wonderful knowledge of the subject by exhuming some antiquated mosscovered ruses as well known as nursery rhymes, and even these extraordinary revelations are calmly dismissed with the assertion that this or that artifice is employed in nowise attempting to explain the process or give the detail of the action mentioned. If terrific denunciation of erstwhile associates, and a diatribe on the awful consequences of bingo games are a criterion of ability, these purified prodigals must have been very dangerous companions at the online bingo rooms.

Of course it is generally known that much deception is practiced at cards, but it is one thing to have that knowledge and quite another to obtain a perfect understanding of the methods employed, and the exact manner in which they are executed. Hence this work stands unique in the list of bingo books.

We modestly claim originality for the particular manner of accomplishing many of the manreuvres described, and believe them vastly superior to others that have come under our observation. We do not claim to know it all. Many professionals have attained their success by improving old methods, or inventing new ones and as certain artifices are first disclosed in this work so will others remain private property as long as the originators are so disposed.
