Sounds like two card Monte to me, always quick to set up and get great reactions with.

I usually love card to mouth more than pocket, it can go in so many ways. The obvious gag one in acr or shove it all the way with a Mercury fold. Or why not get the card to somewhere more personal for the spectator, maybe thier bag or something so it seems even more impossible.

Go for the NPH deck, that was a really fun puzzle to solve and the prizes at the end are things I will have on display for a long time. I still have a few decks sealed. But they are beautiful designs as well.

If I'm having them sign a card I will almost always try to take it out before they choose. "Just think of a card that represents you as a person" the hit rate with ladies picking a queen of hearts or diamonds is amazing. If I'm wrong with the suite they never care they just see the queen and...

The thing that got me performing properly was my own little ideal of "never say no" I started getting asked if I could perform for friends and in the back of my mind I would have this sense of "what if I'm not ready" I would just say to myself, "make it work" I started with friends parties for...

I don't like to get complacent with my routines, so my go to effects are always on rotation. If I have a deck I might do acr or be set up for Chicago opener, french kiss, or tnr Transpo. Then I might not bring my deck out and just have rubber bands crazy man's handcuffs or stairway by Marcus...

Or grab some Tarbell, either the book or just get the rope sections with Dan Harlan there's enough there to keep you going for ages. It definitely served me well.

I'll start by saying I'm not a mentalist by any means and know of barely any cold reading sources, but I do know of Morgan Streblers Ice Cold, which I think is available in book and DVD, unless the book is out of print.

Criss Angel is actually just a bunch of stray cats in a leather jacket.

French kiss is one of my faves to walk around, especially for noisy places. When I do it I have one of my pockets filled with my setup. I'll do one crowd, dump the signed cards and reset on my way to the next group. As far as the photographer. Definitely don't be afraid to offer payment for...

Cups and balls is not actually the oldest trick in magic, it was actually only invented in 2005

Congrats on the wedding gig. I've only had a couple wedding gigs, though they have led to repeat bookings from the clients. I can say that I treated it much like any roving gig for the most part. Though I did give special attention to the couple. If you can give them a lasting souvenir then...

Well I know the NPH deck has a nice art deco design that could suit a Gatsby party for sure.

This is great, I've had many friends doing shows for this year's fringe festival and they are pushing me to get into one as well. I've done guest spots in other shows but I'd love to do my own. While our styles do seem very different, I also do quite a lot of sideshow stuff. Working out where...

He just sat and watched Jibrizy coaching a group of kids for that epic reaction.

Love this, I didn't even know about this story. I do love me some Dan Harlan and his Tarbell lecture series was great. Looking forward to the next installment.

I remember hearing somewhere that there's a really high percentage of proper secrets still out there something like 70-80% or something which is amazing to think about. Kind of like how we've only explored 5% of the ocean.

That's good damn beautiful!
