ORIGINAL IS BETTER (get it if you can!)

But I would always recommend buying an original Poker Machine. The Bloom Version much more suspicious, the Jackpot rolling at the end really looks like a toy and the video is one of the worst Poker Machine performances I've ever seen ... but that is something you can work on even with the Gameboy version! |

I see it as a great advantage that a beautiful almost vintage calculator is used and NO APP I think it's a big plus that this effect is done with A REAL CALCULATOR (Texas Instruments TI-85), a calculator that millions of people have used. I tell the story of a guy who had developed a device for winning at Poker. It's a really nice story that I tell while demonstrating the machine and many people think it's for real I think this is a killer demonstration for many years to come, as long as you have an original working Poker Machine... which we can enjoy for many decades if we treat them well |

SOME TIPS FOR THOSE THAT OWN A REAL POKER MACHINE:
First, treat your machine with respect! Make sure you renew the batteries once a year (and no later than once every 2 years), and exchange them ONE AT THE TIME (this is very important otherwise you will lose the magic!). Learn to turn it ON and OFF (without any mistakes!!!! Or you will lose the magic) Practice your demonstration with clear examples and/or your notes, so you don't make mistakes!!! After that it's easy to do!!! If you haven't performed or practiced for a while, always take a moment (with your notes included) and you'll learn how to use it again in no time. But if you don't you risk losing the secret forever ... So, be careful with it because with John's death the last copies will become increasingly rare with time! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you know someone who can reprogram this miracle machine when needed?... PLEASE PM ME!!! (SO WE CAN PROTECT THE SECRET). --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I have collected some really unique and bizarre tricks from all over the world the past 40 years, but this has been an absolute winner. The effect kills, it's entertaining and last but not least it's unbelievable. An absolute topper that leaves a big impression on all people that see it! Guaranteed to leave them full of disbelief, fun, and excitement, and something they will never forget! When you talk about a winner... then this is a REAL WINNER! And I would like to express my thanks again to John Mendoza who was always ready to help and ready for a nice chat. R.I.P. John ... Let's keep the last Poker Machines alive! Best Wishes! John |

I have this and made sure to change the batteries one at a time but I never got around to using it.
If someone knows how to use this, I'd probably sell mine. I don't plan on using mine and would prefer it goes to someone who knows how to use it since John is gone. I have the written instructions for it also. |

The newer version has advantages that the original version does not have. And.....you don't have to worry about losing the program no matter which button is pushed. Any mistakes can simply be re-entered.

I thought I read, John had made provisions in the event of his passing regarding programming this fantastic piece of magic. Has this ever been revealed what or who has the information. I love mine and I am guilty of not changing the batteries, so the programming is gone. I would really like to get it programmed and start using it again
Any help would be much appreciated |

There's a fairly long discussion about this on the Genii forum. From that, it seems like John did not provide the instructions to reprogram the calculator to anyone else. I also have one that's dead and it would be nice to be able to get it going again.

It was great when it first came out. Really great. Now, with modern technology....not so much.
