I sometimes have trouble figuring out what type of effect I want to do when making an effect. I have a whole switch sequence I combined with some moves I know, and I think its pretty...

    Chop Cup Routines

    Anyone know any good sources for a practical chop cup routine? I haven't seen many around that use a regular chop cup. Paul harris's two routines in AoA both use odd props.

    Opinion on Handmucking Sources

    I am receiving a gift from my aunt for finishing my first college application. And I am very interested in handmucking and how it applies to card magic, as well as other gambling moves in general. So I am unsure whether to purchase Richard Turner's The Cheat Special Edition, or Tony Giorgio's...

    Source Question

    Can anyone tell me where the person in the following video learned the sleights he did? mainly the mucks. I'm guessing from some of the comments that it was Richard Turner, but i'm just attempting to confirm. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fe-n9joepac

    Mucking in Magic

    Does anyone use card mucking actively in his or her card magic, outside of gambling demos? I feel as though mucking can be used beneficially in card magic, just like most switches are used as utility moves. Has anyone applied this before? or at least, what are your thoughts on it? I know some...

    Seconds, Centers, and Bottoms

    I have been looking over the Table of Contents for this on another site, and I noticed that several different grips are taught in the book, namely the Marlo Master Grip. If one were to purchase this, would all the teaching be in reference to the Marlo Master Grip or some of the other grips...

    The Table Shift

    In a video i saw on Scarne (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PRS35gyhbqw) showed him doing the "Table Shift" which was a shift/false cut. Can this technique be learned anywhere? I know he discusses it in his book "Scarne on Cards" but he does not actually teach a method for it just...

    Riffle Stacking

    Does anyone know any good sources for riffle stacking? I know it is included in Card College Vol. 4, but there is only one section in there on it and i'm not sure how in depth that section is.

    Side steal sound?

    I always seem to have a clicking sound when i steal the card during my sidesteal. I have been trying to reduce it but the only way i can find is to slow the motion down, but the speed of it really can't be sacrificed. Is one supposed to talk over it to try and muffle it? In most cases...

    Clipshift Help

    Somebody PM me please, i have been working on the clipshift for a few days now. I know that doesn't seem like much, but i have read the booklet and watched the teaching many times and one of the basic parts of the move just never works for me.

    Can any one point me in the right direction?

    I have been working on a routine for a little while now. But i am looking for a different opener, but i really only care about the ending of the routine. I just want to end cleanly, with two sets of a card left out of the deck (i.e. The four nines and the four 8s). I am preferably looking for...
