Wow this really does look good. It looks exactly like Fallen, but with only one hand! I don't know if it's impromptu, it looks like a gimmick is at work but you just never know.. Perhaps a bit steep on the price tho..

FASDIU 1 and 2 by Paul Cummins. (From A Shuffled Deck In Use, by the way)

Creeper: I haven't read through the whole of this thread, but I see you are not happy with the release as you think it was de-value the book. Take a look at The Royal Road to Card Magic, or, The Bible as many magicians seem to call it. This book has been released on TWO sets of DVDs in the past...

In regards to the release of Allan Ackerman covering Expert At the Card Table, I thought these where released in '06? They are being sold at www.allanackerman.com for $130.

Why have some people so against double lifts with breaks? I used to use a strike, but in my opinion, a strike double is much harder than a simple pinky count. Unfortunately, I learned this after the pinky count, otherwise I would not have bothered learning the strike. Pinky count can be used...

Yeah I'll give it a go. Never done one of these battles though...

Shocking..

I would definately say Past Midnight. The first two disks where great to watch and he teaches some incredibly valuable sleights, some brand new, which are fantastic. He does expect you to know things like the cull and the pass as he doesn't teach these to you, but everything he does teach, he...

The DVD is amazing. But if the only thing you are going to get from it is Smoke then I would say save your money. Smoke is also printed in DB Pure Effect book which is also very good. Pure Effect and Devils Picturebook are both very advanced. I havn't read PE in a long time but DPB is a piece...

What is your favorite deck? Bicycle Vintage Fan backs. Gotta be blue though. What is your favorite trick? Hoff That Ozzy. What is your favorite dvd? Probably RRTCM. But the Paul Wilson one. What is your favorite book? Card College. What is your favorite T11 product? I only ever...

Well you've defintately gone down the right path of RRTCM then ECT. Though, ECT is a hell of a lot harder than RRTCM, especially if you want to learn all the passes and false deals. But that's not the point... It depends if you want to stick with card magic or not. If so, Card College is...

Its also a book by John Bannon. A very good book aswell.

Maybe the effect "Phone" taught in Prime Cuts could be done over the radio. It's designed to be done over the phone but I can't see why it can't be done over the radio. I havn't got it though, so someone else should confirm it really.

90% practice and 10% performance? Way way off the line there. Performance is everything. Obviously, you need to practice to get it to look perfect but performance is much more. I think its a very common misconception that the trick will do the work for you but it definately will not. You...

Well, I havn't got this book, but I do have his At the Card Table DVD's which has some pretty strong magic in it. Although, what struck me most about these DVDs is how bad a performer he is. His 3 Card Monte routine especially sticks in my mind as a terrible performance and his jokes leave...

http://web.mac.com/kostyamagic/KostyaMagic/Lets_Cull.html Havn't got it but I've heard nothing but good news about it. Some have said they have never seen a better culler than Kostyas.

I'm just going to back away from the argument now. I prefer books to DVDs. You prefer DVDs to books. I think it's safe to say we established that and are now just sitting here trying to prove an invalid point to each other. I'll continue buying books and enjoying them. If a DVD comes along...

To be honest, I'm just repeating myself here. I'm not going to have a virtual argument with you. Clearly you love DVDs. I'm not going to start repeating myself and waste my time. Feel free to waste your money on expensive DVDs that are only re-packaging what is being sold for cheaper in a book...

Kostya Kimlat's Culligula. I think it beats every single triumph routine out there

I don't like talking about this sort of stuff. It's really not sleight of hand. There is not one one handed sleight in existance that uses absolutely no movement at all. Full faced cards cannot simply change like that without gimmicks/editing involved. I think he is just simply having a laugh to...
