So these guys don't do just Tally Ho but they do make gaffs of harder to find decks. You might check them out. https://www.slimcardco.com/basic-gaffed-c1p3

All magic uses some form of misdirection. You need to direct them away from the method in someway in order for it to work.

Yep, you are talking about Panic by Aaron Fisher. It was actually sold here on Theory11 for a time. The effect is a deck vanish, the general method has been used in other effects in the past but I am not aware of a deck vanish. It's a very popular trick, and it's probably best to just buy the...

I would just keep in mind, if you are using another magicians ideas in anyway it is always best to give credit, support them with your business and obtaining permission when you do use their ideas.

I'd say it was fine to keep working on it. Personally, I wouldn't feel right about performing it without considerable changes.

Switchcraft by John Scarne is a great effect with a similar method but a dissimilar presentation and effect. The difference in presentation is obvious, the transpo happens using "sleight of mouth" or a kiss. Usually Scarne uses a snap to make the magic happen, a magic gesture ore the idea that...

It is a sweet back design. I think in this case it was designed just to blend in with the lining of the jacket. Borderless Monarchs would be sweet.

I'm going to take the extreme position and say it's not okay to use a trick you figure out. That's it. Example: French Kiss by Wayne Houchin uses classic methods to accomplish the effect. It doesn't fool me at all. I love the effect and it would probably fit me just fine if I performed it. In...

Card tricks that work for kids are few and far between. Here are a few that work. Tracking device by Jay Sankey Cards across, get the kids to count out loud with you. Cards from mouth Flap Jacks by Paul Harris Linking Cards by Paul Harris Twilight Angels by Paul Harris The Omni Deck

I like this, good luck!

I'm always ready with stuff on me. In that sense I'm always practicing. Rehearsal is different. I can practice while I watch TV or talk but rehearsal is where the real intense practice comes in. I get rid of distractions and practice everything I am going to do and say. I'd say I practice for...

Good luck, It's usually a rule that it has to be made new this week.

Sometimes this is caused by having an old deck of cards that clumps a bit. You can also use the finger covering the front edge as a stopper. Practive only letting one card go at a time.

I'm fairly certain that this was created by Kyle Marlett for Justin Flom. I'm not 100% positive though. I'm pretty certain that these are all rip offs. The principal can be learned in this video with chap stick. Daniel Garcia teaches it in his Murphy's Magic Tuesday night hangout.

I have self published on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/Chairs-Fury-Almost-Impromptu-Chair-ebook/dp/B01CGR9NRA/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1489002650&sr=8-2&keywords=chairs+of+fury The programs that they offer are really great. They help you make a title and cover page. The format is interesting...

Shameless plug! http://www.penguinmagic.com/p/3362 It's not strictly a triumph but it has a similar feel. Sometimes you get a really nice mixed display but it is very difficult for this to be under your control.

Yes I do! Change your name and leave the country.

Haha, I remember David Williamson talking about checking out all of the books from his library to keep all the secrets for himself.

Yes, I suppose you could say the same thing about any art. To change Christopher's quote: If sculpture is going to be an art is has to be meaningful. If film is going to be an art is has to be meaningful. If drawing is going to be an art is has to be meaningful. If writing is going to be an art...

Magic can be meaningful but it's not inherently meaningful. The performer has to inject meaning.
