I'm back!
So glad that you didn't have time to do a WPR this week. 
I thought that 'The Gambler' sounded interesting to us mentalists if we have the right conditions and space, but I will need to take a look at the demo of it first to make a better judgement. The card trick was good (Was this the DVD version or Craig's 2.0 version? )
The coins: err ummm not for me. Next year when Matthew is away winning Britain's Got Talent, you will have time to do a WPR.

A demo of 'The Gambler' can be seen here:

Craig brought up "Legacy" as some type of comparison to "The Gambler".
I've had Legacy for awhile and absolutely love it if one takes the time to present it properly. Also, Legacy packs very small. The Gambler looked a bit odd to me and the idea of a lucky box of matches just didn't wash with me. That and aside from the fact that The Gambler sells for $92.00!! Give me a freaking break!

Yes the price is too much and I would want to see it actually performed before I thought twice about buying it.
It's certain not something that you would carry around for impromptu, walk around or even restaurant mentalism, but if someone had the right circumstances and dressed it up in a different box complete with a good theme and reason for that box, something could be made of it. But I'm not exactly rushing out to get it. I want to see more of it first.
