Sam the Bouncer by Chef Anton - Trick

A twist on the classic Sam the Bellhop, this clever and entertaining routine tells the real life story of Chef Anton as he first hustled Minnesota Fats when he was just 9 years old. His unique presentation, includes magical surprises, audience participation to create the story, and a mind-boggling ending that has to be seen to be believed. Truly one of the most commercial versions of this famous effect.

"Chef Anton always puts a nice twist on his routines. His take on Sam the Bellhop has lots of effects in it besides just the story. Cards to pocket, production of four aces, and a very charming approach that is disarming as it is effective. Worth the study if you're looking for a good story and a "Sam" with a kick."
- Bob Sheets"

"Chef Anton has taken a classic story, embellished it, and put his own fingerprints all over it. This is what all of us should do with everybody else's favorite trick. I love his take on this"
- Doc Eason
