I think a better question would be how many card tricks do you regularly preform. I mean I own trilogy so that means I know at least eleven. However I do preform most of them. I have a core 6 pieces that I will use a few from 6 back ups and 3 pieces that only come out if I need to make a great impression. So I guess I have about 15 card effects that I constantly preform. So I probably know well into the hundreds of card tricks but I really only use 15 or so. Sometimes I remember something that I use to do and throw it in to a performance and sometimes that can replace routines that I have in my act.
 
I agree. I mean a poll is a poll but it's obviously not how many tricks you know that's important. Quality over quantity.
 
Know, as in know the method (but can't perform well)?
Or know as in being able to perform (flawlessly)?
Or, know as in I know that trick (where you do "this" action and the "thing" does "this")?
 
To tell you the truth, I practise 1-5 card tricks because it takes perfection. It would be better this way than knowing a lot of card tricks that you can lack of.
 
There isn't really an option for me..

Infinity..

Just imagine me with like an infinity symbol above my head, like a halo.
 
Most people have already pointed out the obvious fault in this - I went ahead and placed my vote under the number of different card tricks I perform, on average, in a week's time, which is 16-20.

However, I know.... a ton. Doesn't matter, though - You can know all the tricks in the world and suck ass at them.
 
I know (Number of Tivo variations) + 1.

Umm. At any one time I probably regularly perform half a dozen or so. With a fair few more on backburner (Probably haven't practiced for a while, sitting there waiting to be revived on whim).
