    Three card monte

    Don't know if they necessarily know if they count as street hustles, But "Bamboozlers" by Diamond Jim Tyler is perfect for you. They are "The Book(s) of Bankable Bar Betchas, Brain Bogglers, Belly Busters, and Bewitchery". In otherwords, Bar Bets, Puzzles, Party Tricks, and I guess some hustles...

    Three card monte

    The 3 card Monte isn't really a trick. It's a street hustle. It has been adapted into a few tricks. Check out the color Monte, as Mark suggested, and also go ahead and check out Mont Aces by Jay Sankey. Same principal, Jays takes the color Monte and adds a kicker ending, And makes it a lot...

    Thoughts on color changes

    I think it's kind of like squares and rectangles. All mentalism is mental magic, but not all mental magic is mentalism. Mental magic would be anything in the catagory. I believe mentalism is actually more so on the presentation - you present it as if you have psychic powers. As a result...

    Thoughts on color changes

    Are we talking about just visual single card (or maybe a small packet) color changes? If so, FLAP by Hondo Chen looks stunning. If other things count, Marlo's Miracle Change is amazing, especially when used as a utility move to switch out something really quickly.

    Is it important which hand to hold the cards in?

    It doesn't really matter. Each hand does different things. It's all what feels more natural. I'm sure there are people who are right handed and hold the deck in their right hand.

    Is it important which hand to hold the cards in?

    No. It doesn't matter what hand you hop it in for anything. For a fan u can do a reverse fan with your right hand. For a DePaul spread, you will always have at least one index showing.

    Why Do Bicycle Standards Marked 2014 Handle Better?

    1st off, see what Lyle said. That may affect stuff. Second off - there is no difference in the finish, so they shouldn't "slide for wayyy longer" lol There is also the fact that as you use up a deck, the quality will become less and less, but you wont feel it because you are using it all the...

    Why Do Bicycle Standards Marked 2014 Handle Better?

    A lot of it is Placebo. The other thing is that Bikes moved to a crushed stock last year (or was it 2 years ago?), which is significantly thinner. handling is all subjective, so you may have liked the thicker stock (which is a bit thinner than the Bees produced today).

    An Idea to Create Better Magic

    Welcome! I like the idea, but I think one week is too small a time frame. Plus, we kinda already do that with the SNCs here. However, I think this would be a really good idea to just share ideas on a weekly thread.
