The Squeeze by Paul Mims
(c. 2006) (Submit Review) (Submit Update)Paul Mims and Doug Gorman used to make an annual trip to my home in Spicewood. We would spend the afternoon showing each other cool magic – they would be looking to see all my cool props and invariably Paul and Doug with have a few new items to show me.
This was one of the routines that they created.
Effect: You start by showing four face aces and one by one they turn over until you have all four aces face down. Then after the squeeze is performed instead of having four face down aces you suddenly have a five cards with a royal flush: 10, J, Q, K, A of spades.
Looks great and easy to do!

Andy Martin –
Great story line, Great Surprise, and good handling.
This new routine by Paul Mims holds great promise and almost delivers! It has an entertaining poker based story line and a very visual transformation from 4 aces to a royal flush, it is also fairly easy to do, with an almost instant reset.
Unfortunately, for me a couple of the moves to get to the end don’t seem to flow as well which makes the counting seem a bit inconsistent. I’m sure there is a solution to the handling, and I intend to continue to work on it because I really like the overall routine. In fact, I’m quite sure that lay people probably love this routine as it stands, but for me it just seems a bit inconsistent. It could just be me of course!
I am keen to see more from Paul and his good friend Doug Gorman as they do seem to be producing some clean, strong effects that have great visual impact and interesting storylines. Keep them coming guys!
