I don't think it loses entertainment value, but it does lose its magic. It really is all in the presentation/delivery for it to be entertaining; which to me, is all that matters. I can watch the same stand up comedians over and over again and my sides will hurt every time. I can watch the same...

I put in bold the parts that matter. The method cannot be readily ascertainable by proper means. Proper means is defined under the act as: The problem here is that the product...is the method. Nobody has to reverse engineer it. It is sold already reversed. You can't do that and try to protect...

Don't know if this is still accurate.

You're about to trigger so many people.

I don't have it, but I'm pretty sure I know the method. I personally wouldn't use it. It's a little too gimmicked (assuming it is what I think it is).

This is not a classic pass. It's closer to a Herrmann pass and uses a spread as motivation and cover. Misdirection is useful, but not always necessary. If a sleight is deceptive enough, I'd argue that it is better to actually draw attention to your hands and the deck. Think of a color change...

Check out Four Play by Chad Nelson if you want a center card flipped. In fact just check out Surfaced by Chad Nelson which is a collection of pieces mostly utilizing the Clip Shift.

Why do you want to learn the pass?

Yeah I understand you could make the image look old (like making it sepia or whatever). But I meant more like this: Which makes the actual photo feel old. This is for paper. I've run a photo over a fire before and put it out right away to give it that old look and feel. Never tried the above...

run it over a fire. helps make it look old. this works with paper, but im not sure about photos. drench it in tea/coffee and bake it for about 6 minutes.

Get married.

Congratz, dude. Well deserved.

a picture of a sponge ball a more firm red ball (same size) a sponge square not a red ball, but a red bull business card a playing card (but when you flip it over its an Ace of Sponge Ball)

Good luck everyone.

Looks sweet!

Perhaps one of the cards at the bottom is turned over already so when he flips the deck, it still looks face down even though the whole deck is face up except for one. That's just an example, it probably isn't that. But if it is: just flip the deck and have your hand turned with...

This is true, but he will just learn that part of performing involves directing people to stand and look where you want them to without making them feel forced.

From video tabled performances, that you can just keep repeating until you get it right for the camera, to "live" performances on Omegle. Not bad. I think this is a step in the right direction for amateur magicians who suffer from anxiety, low self esteem or stage fright to slowly build...

Yes. Doesn't matter the medium or platform. Books, videos, youtube, or whatever by definition you can't teach a trick without exposing it. It is not a negative thing to me. I don't sell tricks, nor do I perform mainstream effects in my routines. Exposure doesn't affect me, so I am indifferent...

I stopped reading when you said: If you're going to tell me what I am saying, then you might as well be talking to yourself.
