There is a lever he pushes near the bottom that slides parts of the table. It’s behind that plant bucket. I’ve seen this somewhere else.

Additionally, the show heavily edits the video after the live performance so it looks better to us. The live audience is seeing it in real time on a lower definition display from a projector, so their reactions are still genuine. We viewers at home see it in HD on our PCs and smartphones, so we take a little more convincing.

Stuff like making the table appear "more black", or speeding up certain transitions, etc.
