Darwin Ortiz. Look him up. He does mainly Card magic and yet I've never heard people say "Do something else. LOL!!!" to him. Juan Tamariz.. Card magic.. He is a huge celebrity in Spain. I guess people expected his card magic so much, that he got on TV and became a huge success. Bill...

One more name to add to the list.. Darwin Ortiz. I never said it's wrong to do other things. Just that you keep mentioning how card tricks are "boring" and "lame". Yet all these pro's out there made their name with card magic. Which is why it's silly to say it's lame or boring. I told you to...

Tell that to Bill Malone and any of the other guys who make a living doing card magic. Hell Juan Tamariz makes a living doing card magic and he is a celebrity in Spain. Need I go on naming guys that make their living with cards?

You're right they are lame. I mean they are so lame, that people still enjoy when David Blaine or any other magician does a card trick. Those people must be thinking "man that guy was just lame.. I don't know why I freaked out." Bill Malone's clients must think "Bill just lame, Why do we pay top...

Let me you tell the story my English Professor told me. A women traveled 8 days on horse back to meet Gandhi, she went to him so he could tell her daughter that eating sweets was bad and to stop. He told her to come back in 8 days. So she left, and returned 8 days later. She asked why he told...

Who exactly are you performing for? Because if it's lay people, I don't see how you can have a problem performing classic effects. Sense they have never heard of or seen the effects before. Also it seems to be that you keep looking for new things to come out on the market. Maybe you need to...

Eh if you are running out of ideas.. Then you must not be looking hard enough. I could go on forever naming guys who make a living out of taking the classics and turning them into something new and amazing. I suggest you learn Mnomica by Juan Tamariz and then try to come up with your own...

You're just not trying hard enough. There are a TON of awesome card effects out there. I mean if guys like Jami Ian Swiss can make a living out of card magic and so can Mike Ammar and a ton of others. Then you must be doing something wrong if you are getting tired of them. What kind of...

You could do a side steal after you actually put the card in the center.

Excuse me, while I laugh at a guy who had a mullet in the late 90's to 00's. LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hopefully you realized you looked like a tool and that was why nobody wanted to hang out with you.

Yeah well I am going to test this out once I get done learning a few things with Juan Tamariz's Mnemonica and I'll see if they can come up with a reasonable excuse for how I achieved the effects.

Yes well he HAD to make his magic look slow and move less. I mean there isn't a lot of sleights you can do with one hand.

They don't do one or two. You'd have to order probably enough to fill a warehouse.

Here's something I have been thinking about. HOW moveless should your magic appear. I mean if it looks like you literally didn't do anything, people could come to the conclusion that you used a gimmick or something. So do you mix up the sleights with the move-less idea. Thus throwing them off...

You don't need experience to tell if it's being hurt by jaded people. sadly tho this doesn't just happen in magic. It's pretty much in any entertainment form. It's also been happening A LONG time before the internet was even around. You're hurting magic. Please stop with the fighting. As...

This looks more like arts and craft thing than a magic thing. Because I originally thought he was going to teach the extremely classic effect of turning an apple into an orange.

Eh, arguing your point on an internet message board doesn't make you smart. Smart people don't need to prove it online. They know they are smart or brilliant and that's good enough for them. I find that arguing points on a message board. No matter how old you are, is really childish and it...

For me the cards don't really matter. I mean if your goal is to simply entertain them, then you CAN point out things like a marked deck or whatever. Hell even if you did, not many people would believe the things you can do with a marked or gimmick deck. The only problem I have with most...

I wouldn't say it sucks, I would say that it doesn't have a logical reason for being. All you do is have them vanish a card to their pocket or whatever. When I heard about the effect, I originally though it was something else. Also for LVL2 I don't like the idea of doing the hand gesture of...

Yeah they only changed the part where the card prediction appears on your hand, instead of a business card. I was watching the Ph notes one night and I think I recall Paul saying they had Bro do all the performances because he was more common and casual about it. The problem I had with his...
