The best marked deck on the market (in my humble opinion) is the GPS deck. It is not as easy to use as the speed readers or the other easy to read cards but I don't know of another deck that you can know the 5th card down instantly without spreading through the deck. In fact at any moment you...

Haha, I wasn't going for a complete list. Marlo has great gambling stuff. Vernon has some fun material. I use John Bannon's 10 card poker deal and I know Howard Hamburg has some great gambling stuff.

Yep, I used to like when they had a log of all the dates when certain books were checked out in the backs of the books. I'd look through and see that I checked out a book 4 times in the last 5 years and no one else took a look at it in that time!

Interesting, I don't agree at all that technology is the problem. While I like the idea of a holographic display like this, what you showed was a treatment of Sargent Pepper's Ghost. The main idea is not new, it seems like they have integrated some sort of lenticular technology as well to...

Yes, I forgot him!

Look for material by these guys; Steve Forte, Jack Carpenter, R. Paul Wilson, Jason England, Derek Delgadio, Richard Turner, Ben Earle or Ben Train.

Brett Hurley Tenyo Expert!

This is gold!

Criss pushes the limits and in my opinion he pushes it a little too far. I have watched almost every episode of Mind Freak and I can't think of a specific time where he would have used computer graphics to accomplish his effects. Other magicians have Zack King (If you want to call him a...

Things can get heated but I think that we can keep things civil as we discuss. The dirt is in the details and I think it's okay to debate these small things.

Don't feel ashamed. Really this was posted tongue in cheek. It does give you perspective on one hand but on the other I hope it give you a set of moves that work for all types of hands.

I'd like to break down mine as well. I hinted towards it earlier but I'll break it down. Coat Breast Pocket: Buisness Cards Left outside coat pocket: Omni deck and Unboxed deck Right Outside Coat Pocket: Warning Left Inside Coat Pocket: 2 Sharpies, Tear No Tear pad, Invisible Deck Right Inside...

I'll give 2 instances where I think magic and cardistry work and where they do not. The first is of Shin Lim. This video isn't the greatest example of total integration but I think you can see the ways he has combined it. For some one like Shin Lim this is part of his style and in this clip he...

In my county I have several libraries to chose from. My college also has an inter library loan program. Basically this means if I find a magic book at any College in the state they will ship it to my house for free. The best library books that I have found at my local library in no particular...

One of the most difficult moves that I have learned is Pandora from Dan and Dave. I can do it alright but it never looks as good as when they do it. I really love the under pressure flourish for ts simplicity.

I'd wear them at every gig!

I have read a lot of Peter Turner, and a lot of Fraser Parker's stuff. Both use a lot of mechanical stuff. I like the thinking from a theory perspective but lots of their stuff becomes very difficult to actually perform. If you are looking at psychology and magic Kenton Knepper is a good...

It all feels completely impossible as you start. Just move slow make sure you are doing it right and it will come.

Dang, there's some awesome new stuff available. I love magic paraphernalia. The new deck displays are really good looking. Card clips are sweet. I would love some sort of a performance display for cards. I have an old glass display that I use but I can't find any that are new.

Sean Fields has a bunch of good shock magic. Andrew Mayne has a collection of Shock magic. My favorite is Harry Anderson's needle through arm.
