    Smooth is always better.You don't want to see someone doing Sybil in 2 seconds don't you ?

    Aladdin 1001 Finish

    False , Aladdin 1002s don't have Smooth Finish. Also , referring to Prae's reply , I think Ace King Cards or Fullboatdealer sold them before D&D.Nontheless , I think that at that point of time the only way for Aladdins to be brought into America was to buy it directly from Singapore

    Aladdin 1001 Finish

    Definitely Smooths.You are better off buying Rider Backs if you are going to buy the Air Cushions. Also just to clarify , there are both Smooth and Air cushion finishes for the Aladdin 1001 while the Aladdin 1002s are air cushion with gold gilded edges.So in fact both 1001s and 1002s have an...

    D&D Smokes and Mirrors

    S&Ms are great decks but I think you should get Split Spades , the deck which in many people's opinion is better for a cheaper price.My S&Ms didn't last and the Ds made me angry literally.

    Don't buy the new standard bikes

    If you have a S&M without a seal or the 2nd Edition of Bee Erdnase (no back design on the box), compare it with an old rider back or any Cincinnatti deck.The pips and the court card pics of the S&M without seal and 2nd Ed Erdnase is smaller.Those are the new pips.Hope that helps.

    Average time before you use a sleight

    I practice my tricks and sleights and flourishes 5 hours a day,Then if I have time , I usually go out and perform or jam.If it's a school day , I just practice my sleights while in the bus.It takes about 3 months for my sleights to be truly deceptive.

    Don't buy the new standard bikes

    I think the new Rider Backs are fine at times , they are just softer.USPCC shouldn't have dumped tried and tested methods of making the deck.

    Zarrow shuffle or Push Though shuffle?

    Both serves the same purpose.Both are very convincing yet deceiving.I find both of them equally good and I am usually in a daze for which shuffle to use to demonstrate false shuffles.Get Foundations if you are also interested in false deals , or get Jason's Push Through Shuffle 1on1. If you want...

    Richard Turners Gold Seal Bicycle Deck...

    Just to add on to the list of traditionally cut decks , most casino decks (Wynns , Jerry's Nuggets , Aristocrat Casino decks) are traditionally cut.And I wonder why the decks are expensive in Australia as Prae stated.....

    No talking in flourishing DVDs?

    I find that flourishing DVDs such as The System and The Trilogy are great learning tools but it gets boring quickly partly because the teacher doesen't speak.If Andrei can do it , why can't D&D ? Just my half a cent.

    Bicycle 125 Review

    I agree 100% , somehow vintage designed decks are GREAT (vintage series and these 125s especially).The only thing I didn't really like was the 'crowded' feeling of the cards.Otherwise , they are great.I reccomend buying this deck.Not suspicious for maigc , no questions.

    Stories

    Freefall by Chad Nelson is a pretty good trick with a story.Also , it is very visual.

    Jackson 5 vs Pandora
