Which is why I recommended E's shells. They are decently priced. Schoolcraft is basically made for guys who do high end corporate gigs or who have been doing coin magic for years. Homer Liwag does recommend them, but then again he works for Copperfield and has more than enough cash to buy his...

Why does everybody have to make a webcam video like that? Honestly what happened to just doing it in real time and not all fancy.

I don't want to fool me. I want to fool other people. You need to get out of the mind set. Magic isn't about fooling yourself. It's about entertaining other people. You can't do that if you constantly think 'Well that didn't fool me." Of course did it didn't! You're a bloody magician! It's not...

I like how it's magic taking advantage with today's technology.

You do realize that when you perform magic it's not meant to fool YOU. Otherwise it would be silly. It's meant to fool or entertain lay people.

There is a lot of 3 coins across type routines. Eric Jones has Mirage et Trois. Justin Millers Silver Dream. Coin Two by Homer Liwag. The list goes on and on.

Yeah I recall Jay saying he doesn't like them because supposedly a friend of his didn't get a trick to work like it should for a waitress. Then again that could have less to do with the design of the deck and more to do with the fact that he didn't have any "prestige" as Darwin Ortiz would...

Fetish porn....

So... Why does it matter is they did work for other companies and had contracts. "Oh noes, they were contracted. Their opinions are now void! THE WALLS ARE CAVING IN! BLACK IS WHITE! UP IS DOWN!!" It shouldn't matter who they were contracted to. Why would it. When they were performing for...

Depends on what you would pirate. College books. I could agree with pirating those due to how over priced they are (even for used books.). But for things like magic books or whatever then it's something different. Tho I personally find it better and easier to read some thing when I have the...

You can get shells for most kennedy half dollars at just about any magic site. People say Schoolcraft because he does a lot of custom work. But for most people's budgets on this board I'd simply recommend looking up E's shells or any other decent sights. Once you start making a good living and...

The type of cards they use is irrevelant. If you look up to the pro's you shouldn't do so because of the cards they use, but because of the skill they have. You also shouldn't try to be like them, because you'll never make a name for yourself if you do.

That's what other people thought, but it looks that way because of how good Homer is. He'll teach you how to perform like that. The sleights in it are pretty intermediate with coins but should be within your grasp.

You know what I'd like to see. A battle where instead of webcam stuff. We get people performing for live audiences. Then you can judge them on other stuff.

As most guys will say. It shouldn't matter what type of cards you use. Hell you're a magician. If somebody hands you a worn out deck missing a few cards. You should be able to perform some magic with it. These type of arguments have been going around for decades. Fred Kaps was often said...

Yeah I just did a bit of searching and it's recommended that you start out with Half dollars. Because they'd be easier to work with and easier to get a hold of. Not to mention you'll be kicking yourself if you loose a coin that cost you like 30-100 bucks. Rather than if you loose a coin that...

Just get a few Kennedy halfs and a shell for them and you should be fine.

Depends on you. It really shouldn't matter if you use a custom deck or not. Everybody has their own personal style and taste. Some guys love the black decks and that fits their style and persona. Some guys use the Ghost decks or the other decks. Some guys use regular bikes. It really doesn't...

I don't see what's wrong with using custom cards. We are magicians, nothing we do is supposed to look normal. Everybody has their own taste and if some guys want to use custom decks, then they should. It shouldn't be up to one person to decide if they should or shouldn't.
