Hey I thought the tips were pretty good too. When the cards are being dribbled, and they're falling vertically but still staying connected, makes me feel good inside ;) Can't wait to show the girls at work my Anaconda :P

Freakin awesome bro, keep on representing!! Thanks for the songs, you obviously have good taste as well...:)

Thanks Inferno, that pretty much tipped me over to purchase this effect. I hope the bill can be fully inspected afterwards. I wonder if this is a brand new principle, or a viriation of an old one?

Hey guys, one question. I find that some bill effects work better with American money than Canadian because of the camouflage of the bills looking similar in colour. Does the Canadian bills have any disadvantage over the American currency or will it work just the same?

Hi Viet Dit me...always awesome to see other fellow viets making their mark in the magic/cardistry world ;) You're an inspiration. Could you please hook up the name of that song in your SNC win video. Frickin awesome btw~!!! Thanks man!

Sounds like an opportunity to promote yourself and whichever vendor that hires you. "I would love to show you something right now but the only trick that I can show you is my disapearing act...I have to tend to other things that I need to get in order. However, if you want to see some great...

Read my next post. Wanted to quote another post on this thread.

haha, hilarious Steerpike.

I'm down, PM when you get a chance. I'll send you my contact info. Don't know if you know, but there some regular working street magi down at Dundas Square. Pretty cool, very artistic routines (their own versions of classic effects). You should check them out when you get a chance :)

A book that I would like to add: "Leading With Your Head" by Gary Kurtz. The book is entirely written on all the methods that can be employed on misdirection and uses examples from various effects. He really gets down to the psychology of the spectator and what is bad misdirection. The success...

Hey Gambit_x, there's a magic club meet at the Browser's Den in Toronto tomorrow between 2:30 and 4:30pm. I'm sure there will be people there to help you out as long as you attempt to show them what you're working on. Just do a search on the web and you'll find it.

Hey no probs RDChopper, it just one of those effects that will have an everlasting effect with me for life. Thank Youtube for even having the vid, otherwise I wouldn't know when it would be possible to ever see it again! In this case, Youtube is an "Angel" in terms of the availability of what...

I still remember watching the episode of David Copperfield as a kid when he escaped from Alcatraz. Two very magical moments for me: When he used a blanket to get him from one side of the jail bars to the other side without the camera losing the shot. Till this day I am still baffled by it...

Bestest Rubber Band trick Hands down Since we are on the topic of rubber band effects, does anybody have the sleightest idea if Rich Ferguson's rubber link is his own pet effect or is a modification of say, Chris Kenner's Missing Link? Or where can I learn this effect? It looks absolutely...

Sick! That inspires me to do coin magic.

Hi Everyone, I am going to be up front with you and tell you that I am going to be biased about what I am going to tell you. Of all the effects that I do, this effect sets me apart from a lot of magicians that spectators see live in person. They tell me that they see magic here and there, but...

I think its called the Window change, but please correct me if I'm wrong. It's the one that Copperfield did for the last colour change with his Grandpa Aces card trick. Looks like real magic and never fails to gets gasps from everyone.

This is an interesting article. I didn't know that Hollingworth is a lawer.

I read somewhere (probably on these forums) that the differences separating an amateur and a pro is this: an amateur practices effects until they get it right and are usually hobbyist; a professional practices until they can't mess it up and gets paid for it.

I like that.
