    Brick & Mortar

    I visited Chicago over the summer and ran across 2 amazing shops. One was Magic Inc, same guys who print Marlo's books now, and I can't remember the other.

    Card backpack

    Seems cool, but it could be better. For 80 bucks (60 with the sale), I'd want something that looks a bit more high quality. And what's up with those designs? Honestly, I feel like if we buy a 20 - 30 dollar back pack and invest some time and some craft supplies, we can come up with something...

    What's the best deck of cards to get in terms of longevity?

    Bees are a thicker stock, so they will in theory last longer. If you live in the U.S., save up a bit more and go buy a brick (12 decks) of Bikes at Costco for $15. Otherwise, check amazon, generally you can buy Bikes and Bees for very cheap.

    Are the Bicycle Standard Cards a one way back design!?

    Standard Bikes are not a one way design. You can easily mark them and make them a one way design, but they are not straight out of the box. Bicycle has gone through many back designs over the years and the "Standard" design has changed over the years as well. Whether this means it was a...

    How to keep from ripping cards while splitting them

    I will second Justin's advice. Get Blake Vogt's Split Sessions. You'll get a perfect deck of cards split in about 10 min, and he explains what you need to do if it rips.

    For real though and lol. Whatever happened to that anyways? I kinda just assumed that when school came around, you stopped, which is 100% acceptable lol

    Chris Pratt Slap Trick Creator

    There are a few instances of it being performed way before this, but Tom Seller had a written variation on it (according to conjuring archive). I think I read about the move somewhere, but I can't remember where! AHHH

    How far can one go in card magic without paying for any tricks or tutorials?

    Everything these guys said is true. For free, you can go pretty far if your local library has magic books... Check out there website. My Library had ebook versions of the Royal Road, the Encyclopedia of Card Tricks, Scarne on cards, a Karl Fulve's card book, Joshua Jay's Complete Course, and a...

    Could you guys give me opinion on this card control ?

    Looks cool! Looks like a dribble pass, or a cover pass, However, if you say the actual mechanics are "reverse" it might be a Herrmann pass variation.

    I am collecting playing cards. Am I abnormal?

    I recently opened up a drawer that had stuff from when I was a kid. I found a pile of rocks. You're like 10 times cooler than me already. A lot of people actually collect decks just to have them. You're perfectly good :)

    What actually is it? It looks like some sort of private forums with Madison that you have to pay to get in to?

    Coin Routines

    I like a good Coins across routine, which is my "other" selection. I also love Copper and Silver/Scotch and Soda routines.

    Is it a new gimmicked deck, or a gaff deck as in the faces have been changed to look different?

    Cleaning playingcards

    I suggest buying some new cards. Restoring old ones is just expensive and not worth it. Fanning powder doesn't work all the time, though it may for you. Use this deck to do mercury folds or TnR practice, or if it is a "luxury" deck, save it for a collection. I highly suggest taking Rick's...
