I thought that was a good joke and foreshadowing. The whole trick was like a comedy routine. He lied unnecessarily and made more obvious sleight of hand moves than he actually used. Then, when he lies about the tap and take, he follows by pointing out that he "pretends" to put the dice that aren't there in his pocket. But he didn't "pretend" to put them in his pocket before! He is explaining nothing. He is literally just calling attention to the next load just before he reveals nothing. "Hey, look! My hand is in my pocket, but instead of watching that hand, you're going to look over here where I am telling the truth."

I love what I just noticed..... While revealing the final big dice, the dice was actually hollow and open from the bottom. But at 5:04 he replaced that die with a solid one. He did a trick after the performance was over!! And hence he finally banged the bottom two die at the end after Penn told him that he didn't fool them. This was just to pull Penn and Teller's leg because they clearly must not have noticed him switching the last dice. That's pure genuis!

I had thought it was hollow at the first reveal but never expected the switch after it was over. During deliberations they looked like they were the same size so that threw me off and the clank together was even another layer to it that I had to watch it again because the initial reveal, if it was a solid die, was flawless and mind blowing. Never did I expect him to swap it as they left the table. 😍

After the performance,which was all members of THE LINKING RING, Scotty had me do my own unique routine for him. He was pleasantly surprised by it. Never forgotten that night!

Once in a while, P&T will say something like, "Can I examine X. If the answer is yes, you fooled us." 5:03 was Gertner hoping P&T would ask to examine the props and be fooled, but P&T didn't ask to examine the props, rendering it moot. In fact, that sort of sneakiness doesn't work well for practical reasons: P&T explain the trick's method to the producers, but the producers can't really say, "If you examined the props you'd realize X wasn't possible." *Maybe* Gerter would have fooled them if he'd brought them the props *after* the swap at 5:03, but doing that would've drawn the audience's attention to the swap (and *maybe* P&T's attention).

I am not a magician but I re-play the tricks in my mind and think about how they do it. For this one, I didn't even think that hard. I was disappointed when he finished the trick because I was hoping for something that would shock me and take my imagination to a dead end. He didn't fool me so how could he have foold the great magicians like Penn & Teller. One thing which I always appreciate about him is that he does everything very smoothly. He is one of the best I've seen when it comes to delivering a trick.

You can see the edge of that tubing. That's what was holding the dices the whole time, even before the trick started or when he took the hat to the table's edge and puts it quickly in the hat just before the last reveal. A lot of stuff happened whenever he took the hat near the table's edge. That's where he is an expert and does it so quickly and smoothly.

Thanks Shawn… glad you enjoyed it. The ending was a bit awkward. What actually happened was that during Penn’s talk I totally missed the clue he tossed out about the jumbo dice. So at the end I’m standing there thinking: “What about the second big die?” and I made a split second decision to pick them up and clicked them together. And Penn & Teller are sitting there thinking: “Hey… We just gave you a clue!” So it was a bit confusing. In my show at the end of that trick I always do a s______, and then click the dice together and hand them out to the audience. I did the same thing on the show but unfortunately the multiple dice ending threw off my timing and the s______ happened as they were already walking away instead of still sitting there in front of me. I probably should not have done the click… but at that moment I still thought they missed it and I was thinking…: “Hey what about these?” Not realizing they had figured it all out. But it was a good TV spot and overall I was very happy with it.
