Idk I think that's kind of a weird nit. Magicians palm lots of stuff, it's the kind of thing a chess hustler might want to do to prevent losing and he pointed out that it took practice to pull off. He took a knight off though that's pushing it it's hard to argue that a whole knight wasn't on the board at all. Taking off a key pawn would've been more reasonable granted. Not that it was some irreplaceable metaphor either but...
Much better nit: Axe said he would bet when he knew the horses were well rested and when the
drivers were well rested too. "Holy **** I got the inside track that Bill got a full night of sleep last night. Bombs away."
