    Lost with the Bottom Deal

    Dr. Elliot's bottom deal is probably the easiest I know. It was Vernon's favorite. When I bottom deal I don't buckle, I learned from Erdnase. I echo the Madison sentiment. I have seen his approach, it's not great.

    Interesting Online Mental Card Magic

    I love the princess card trick. A similar presentation really freaked me out when I was younger. It completely fooled me.

    Have you ever done a whole card routine with just one hand?

    I may share it but I'm out of practice, so it will be kinda sloppy.

    Have you ever done a whole card routine with just one hand?

    Dani Daortiz cuts to the aces with one hand. It's one of my favorite routines he does. I created a one handed ambitious card routine. I'm not a huge fan of the ambitious card though so I really don't perform it anymore.

    Was Ellen in on this?

    For this effect there is not just one way to do it. Justin performs many variations of this same effect and the method differs depending on the situation. When asked which method he uses he boldly says "All of them". Just to give some scope on the variations of methods here are a couple links to...

    Rubber band tricks/routines?

    This is one of my favorite rubber band effects. It uses a gimmick but it is very strong :)

    G Force Change - Inspired by Changeling

    I'd submit it again or submit a support ticket. They should give you some feedback. Hopefully they'll let you know. I could see how it is very similar to Evolve and that could bring unwanted drama to the Wire.

    I am going to make TV show

    It's always good to contact the creator or publisher of the effect and to include them in the credits. I wouldn't do much more than that though. It's not wise to have a subtitle come up that says that this trick was created by Blake Vogt and it is currently being sold on Theory11.

    Taxi scam

    I want to say that this is a version of short change. With many short change scams there is very little actual sleight of hand, the short change happens from a psychological perspective and a reliance that the victim isn't going to catch common math mistakes.

    Is this original???

    It's not original enough for the Wire. It's a fine control, like it has been said earlier in this thread it is a sleight modification for a classic control. I'm pretty sure I've seen Marlo publish an idea like this in a quest to get reid of the jogged card in most overhand controls. The Wire is...

    I'm 15 yrs old and want to become a card magician but..

    My parents always thought that I'd grow out of magic. I never did. I just graduated from college and I teach school. I'm working on my masters currently and what I get from magic is about a third from my income. I have a job that give me insurance and security. Magic is a great second job...

    Is There Any Purchases You Regret?

    I have bought a whole bunch of stuff I already knew the secret for. I feel morally obligated to give the creator money if I'm going to use it. It's pretty rare that I regret buying something, I don't buy much. I bought the Raven and at the time I didn't have a use for it. I have since sold it...

    How big is your hand?

    I feel like most of the hand size issues go away with practice. That said I measured my hands the same way you did they're about 8 inches the way you measured.

    which is the best card magic INSTANT DOWNLOAD??

    If your friends are being jerks about your magic it is tempting to learn some hard core sleight of hand. I'm going to suggest that you go the opposite direction and learn some mathematic or self working magic. I would recommend any of Big Blind media's DVD's on Self Working card magic. If I...

    Multi Trick DVD's are just as strong

    which is the best card magic INSTANT DOWNLOAD??

    Why would you dislike multi-trick DVD's? You could get one trick for $30 or 5 for $30. In my experience the 5 for $30 is almost always a better deal.

    Vanish person in a box

    I'm not clear on the effect that you want to achieve. You get in a box, possibly locked up. The box is thrown into the river. Are you planning on escaping from the box? Are you planning on vanishing from the box? I think you have explained what the begining is but I don't know what you want the...
