I decided to enter even though I didn't have a lot of time to make it and it's not exactly camera friendly. It was something fun to break up the studying :) Good luck everyone!

Love these reviews! This one was interesting because it gave me some background to a man that I barely know. Your words about aspiring to be better than our heroes were beautiful and really inspiring. I hope a lot of people, especially the ones who have threatened Madison's life see this and...

I kinda want Theory 11 to do a video series on Expert Card Technique. Since E covered the "Old Testament" of card manipulation (EATCT), T11 can do the "New Testament".

Thanks for the reply. I actually made a new deck using a method that RealityOne suggested and all of those problems are gone.

People like to find things to complain about. Especially when it's about something as beloved as their "bible". This really got out of hand though.

Anyone else see this email? AN OPEN LETTER REGARDING DANIEL MADISON What started as a campaign with an outspoken member of our community has turned ugly. As a first in Ellusionist history, one of our team has received death threats. More than one. For those that don't know about last...

That is typically how that peak is done, though. It is incredibly difficult to attain the break over the selection at the same speed you release the other cards. Not to mention that under the gun it's risky. A small touch would be not to release the other cards as fast after the break and/or...

I didn't mean to ignore your comment but you were right about my comments. I am deeply sorry about that, but I see they have been edited. I'll pay more close attention in the future. Also, the original construction was just done poorly. With the tips provided to me by RealityOne my two new R&S...

It's pretty hard to misdirected a camera. Unless you've actually seen him perform in which case I'm jealous. Use whatever is comfortable for you but in my experience it's still a good control. It's like the criss cross force. You wonder how could that fool anyone but used properly it goes right by.

You may also want to look into Psych-Out by Bruce Bernstein. I've never used it but I wanted to mention it just to add to your research.

He mentioned that with misdirection it flies right by. If you're staring at the cards while you are doing the double undercut then for sure they'll see what you did. If you do it casually though while looking at them and talking with them then it goes right under their radar. Of course...

I remember seeing this trick months ago and it fried me. It still fries me!

Just kidding around. My favorite gambling plot is the Magician vs the Gambler because it blends magic and, as far as the audience is concerned, gambling. I love Harry Loraynes handling but my favorite is Title Bout by Martin Nash . I remember when I first got into magic I bought a Michael Ammar...

How could you?! :O

Also, Darwin Ortiz.

Funny story, only after I bought The Code did I realize it wasn't a Rider Back deck. I didn't notice even though I handle a deck of cards literally every day. They are as close to a standard pack of Rider Backs as you can get and no one will ever EVER notice that they are Maidens.

But the Ultimate Marked Deck does? I'm intrigued now.

Though it's full potential is reached when it's in stack there is nothing stopping you from shuffling it and using it as a regular marked deck.

I was meaning to ask you about that trick. I believe I've seen that somewhere else but I can't remember where. I have a method in mind that's why I wanted to know if it was in print somewhere else. And I've used two types of marked decks. One that's a DIY mark that's hard to find. And The Code...

Anytime friend. About SMOKE 2.0, I can't recommend it over another smoke device because I haven't used any other. I certainly do like having it and the reactions with the tricks I've used it for have been amazing. The fact that it's cleverly disguised as an ordinary object that the spectators...
