    Revolution by Gregory Wilson

    To clear things up - the gimmick (as provided) would NOT work with one playing card. The gimmick is hidden inside the box. It would be very visible with just one playing card. If the same effect was done with one card, it was either a different gimmick, no gimmick, or this gimmick modified in...

    Bizzaro - 'Overstuft'. Is it worth it

    Not really designed to be a carry around effect. It is designed to be something more impulsive-feeling. Sitting around with friends, having a good time, doing a magic trick with the items around you. Or, where the objects are familiar and frequently found. Nobody is going to question a pack of...

    'Sub Rosa' & Monopoly

    Truthfully, I don't see why you couldn't. Would take practice, but I think the principle would work just the same. // L

    Why aren't there any books?

    Hey guys, We don't advertise or suggest that theory11 be the only source for your education and advancement in magic. Much the opposite - we actually published a free video with Jason England, one of the most well read historians in magic, specifically called What To Read. I'd highly recommend...

    What is the Tycoon deck stacked for?

    Tamariz, with the deck cut so that the card on the face is the Ace of Spades. This means the deck appears to be in normal order when removed from the box, but the integrity of the stack is still retained. // L

    FAKE bicycle standard cards

    Now THAT appears to be a legitimately illegitimate deck. Whoever faked those cards does not have a fluent English proofreader. You can rest assured that the USPCC does. I'd reach out to the seller to arrange for a refund. // L

    New Forum Section: Decks?

    Hey Luke! Thanks for your feedback! We had considered this as another section of the forums, but we opted to not create a playing cards section. Our forums in the past have been a little too clunky and busy with too many sections. Some magic forums are super hard to use because they have so...

    For those who have participated in the 'Fake Reveal' contests

    Hey Luke! Don't worry about it at all! The entire point of these videos is to be, like Justin said, as fooling as possible. The fact that people report some of these videos is simply a testament to how good the people make them! I would be willing to bet that you didn't watch the video all the...

    What's on your pre-Christmas August list?

    I can confirm this. Not a lot of Twilight Angels cards, but a few. Lubor's Lens gimmick is there too. The True Astonishment box set is amazing, but the Art of Astonishment book serious is all but essential. I bought the box set and won a signed book set as a result. No complaints! // L

    What's on your pre-Christmas August list?

    The True Astonishments Box Set is a goldmine of awesome material. Expensive, but worth it. Industrial Revelation would be on my list too. Powerful, impossible effect. // L

To those who have been able to attend Exposé LIVE, I think you will agree - It is working! Lots of you have been able...

    What's on your pre-Christmas August list?

    I can't say what items are on my Christmas list. We haven't announced them yet. I'm gonna go broke this year. // L

    Quality of Bicycle Playing Cards

    Bicycle deck quality has a few months of issues right after they changed from the Ohio to the Kentucky factory a few years ago. Since then the quality has improved significantly. Quality right now is great. No deck of cards is ever centered perfectly, so an occasionally off-centered deck is not...

    Wynns

    Hello! theory11 didn't print the Wynn decks in the first place! They were old cards from the Wynn Casino in Las Vegas. We were able to pick up lots of these cards and sold them until we ran out. The Wynn Casino has no public plans to ever reprint these, so they are likely gone for good. Have a...
