I think Simple Switch by Paul Harris is fairly difficult

Excellent. I'm looking through Annemanns book right now actually. What do you think of Peter Turners freeform mentalism DVD? I love DVDs, haha, so it's temping to buy that. I saw a guy reviewing it say it's a good place for a new mentalist to start. Worth the 50 bucks? Also, is there a...

I was thinking of getting Trick of the Mind or perhaps the DVD The devil's picture book the negative reviews of 13 steps to mentalism basically said that it was outdated and not nearly as interesting as darren brown books. I don't mind reading it though hadn't heard of Annemann yet, so I'll...

thanks I'm new to magic, especially mentalism, so if this is a stupid question forgive me. When I watch David Blaine's specials and see him ask someone to think of any card, and then he "knows" what card the person is thinking of without them saying what it is (assuming they aren't in on it...

so i'm trying to decide whether to buy Asi Wind's ACAAN (and possibly his chapter 1 book) or to get Peter Turner's mentalism DVD. Does anyone know the specs on Peter Turners ACAAN? Is it "more magical" than Asi's? I've heard that on Peter Turner's I don't even need to use my cards, I can...

ah, yeah the scarcity of the information makes sense. as for real magic or whatever, if I wanted to hold onto the fact that I thought a certain trick was truely magic, I wouldn't be looking up how to do it on a forum in the first place, so not sure that makes sense to me. No offense to you...

It's supposedly not Peter's cards. The one guy he did the ACAAN trick on via skype, and used the other guy's cards, and still knew where the cards were. Call me crazy, but thats telepathy. How can there be a method when there is a truely random deck of cards, and you are not even in the...

Hey guys, I just watched Peter Turner's version of ACAAN and read about other people who had seen him perform it. Please, someone tell me what I'm missing here , because to me this is boardering "true magic" or telepathy Someone brings out their own deck, Peter doesnt know the order. He asks...

Wow, Asi Wind's version of ACAAN is exactly like the one criss angel did, only for real. Does anyone know if that is the version available in his book "Chapter One"? I noticed he has it available for download for 20 dollars (the version criss angel did in the video), I'm assuming its better...

I read a little bit about mental forcing and then tried it on my girlfriend. The first time, I just tried giving her "suggestions" by mentioning suit and number a few times the half hour before i did it (subtle of course) I tried for 2 of hearts, and she named three of hearts. Next I used a...

thanks Issac! :) as i continue to watch the special, david blaine does a bunch of tricks where he lets the person THINK fo any card they wish, and then ends up revealing that card to them. This is called a psychological force, right? Any resources where I could read or learn how to do a...

hey again guys. I'm a new magician as you've probably noticed, so I saw this trick and it kind of blew my mind. I'm really curious as to what the name of this trick is, or if it's a David Blaine exclusive. But here's the link - basically he gives a guy 10 cards, which the guy counts out...

does anyone know the method / origin of this trick as performed by criss angel? I've seen other variations, but this one is the most impressive. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4xpnWNEBCCQ I suppose the people could have been in on it, but I'd like to think it's a legit. trick. Any...

ok. SO can i use a laser printer to print it then? Or will it truely damage it?

The trick Fraud by Daniel Garcia requires a certain printing device which I'm sure any of you who do the trick know about. I myself, nor any of my friends have it :( So my question - has anyone tried a laser printer and had it work without damaging it? I'd hate to break mine if it truly does...

i figured it out, thanks. I wasn't even aware it could be purchased until someone mentioned it

so its a trick deck?

ok. i'll check again and see if i can figure it out, the rest of the trick is pretty easy, can't seem to get my mind around that part though

Hi everyone. I was watching this video of Gregory Wilson performing what is apparently a combination on an inversion plot and triumph , and he did a really neat move towards the end at 3:17 where he Faro shuffles faceup into face down and somehow they still end up all facing the same direction...

thanks! very simple, very good shuffle
