Magic Review - Cheater Chips by Craig Petty

David from Magic Orthodoxy delivers a thorough review of Craig Petty's "Cheater Chips," a new release provided by Penguin Magic. The video aims to clarify what the product is and whether it's a worthwhile investment for magicians. These marked poker chips, developed in collaboration with Phil Smith, mimic the look and feel of real casino chips while subtly indicating their value using Smith's Optical marking system. The set includes 14 clay chips and four gaffed chips, opening doors for various routines like ESP matches and card/coin tricks. A significant portion of the review focuses on the extensive three-hour tutorial, which covers 16 tricks, including poker deals, forces, transpositions, and unique effects like "Quinta Extreme." David highlights the chips' excellent angles, inspectability, and authentic feel, making them suitable for diverse performance settings. Ultimately, he considers "Cheater Chips" a successful collaboration, offering a fresh perspective on classic routines and strongly recommending it for magicians looking to expand their gambling-themed performances, especially appreciating the wealth of material provided for creative exploration.
