Yeah I'll get right on it. >_>

Whats with everybody thinking you have to do an effect with your business card? The best thing to do is just hand them your business card and simply talk to them. No magic, just chit chat with them after you have done your set. Let them get to know who you are beyond the fact that you are a guy...

Shane Black does the same type of effect and it's on the market. Look up the Pandora System.

I think putting your picture on the business card is a bit too tacky.

You know, I think this "battle" should be changed. Instead of it just being about how good you can stack, Bottom, 2nd or whatever deal. It should be more about actually gambling demos. IE: dealing yourself a full house, or dealing the guy next to you all the aces. But instead of having to...

There is nothing wrong with having a plain business card. You don't want your business card to look too corny or too flashy. All it really should have is you job title and contact info. And maybe a picture on it if you want. Anything else is just over doing it and will look tacky. As far as...

You need to chill out. That last retort wasn't called for and in fact was incredibly immature on your part.

I like Skilled magicians, but I enjoy performing stuff from guys who have effects that look like REAL magic and that are direct.

I doubt he "mastered" it, and just more or less found the mechanics of it easier to learn. Which I would still disagree with.

You mean the submarine one? Yeah, not gonna happen. Though there are versions of the one where you tear corner out and it ends up matching the one that went through the window.

Depends on WHO'S name you got tattoed? You wife/GF.. Yeah you'll end up being really pissed if that marriage or relationship doesn't work out in the end. You daughters/sons? OK, that MIGHT work.. You're moms/any other family members?.. sounds kind of weird to me unless you were extremely...

I don't see the point in it. But hey, whatever floats your boat.

Actually now that I think about it, you can get a Bar tenders license and then try to get a gig as a Bar tender at a decent place, and while working as a Bar tender you can still perform your magic for them. That way you'd be increasing the normal tips you get from the job and also getting the...

You CAN do it, just that it's going to take a lot of hard work, good marketing, blood and tears. Which is why a lot of the guys out there have day jobs. The magic is primarily a side income. Much like anything in the entertainment business, you really should have something to fall back onto...

You can pretty much get one off any magic website. You will have to realize that SOME of the Swami's mentioned in the book probably will not be on the market anymore.

You can't really judge how well a performer "Connects" with their audience on a DVD. Because they most likely don't have the time to chat up the people they are performing for. When they film DVD's they have things like time constraints and all that. Which is something that they don't have when...

Compression isn't coming out due to all the crediting problems they were having with it. It was a neat effect and I think the basic concept can be found in a few other magic books out there.

I've heard that some just take the cards in the case and practice it with two decks. Though I suppose the steel plates are heavier and will usually build up more strength in the hands for the sleight.

Wait they sell the Pass Trainer thing? I thought that was only sold from Japan for like a 100$

Where did you learn that? The Room.
