Here is my entry. Good luck to all involved.

I usually respond by saying that I have a guess/good idea of how it was done, but I can't say for sure. That response usually ends that conversation, but if the person gets pushy, I just tell them that I'm not saying what I think out of respect for the magician.

After doing a brief amount of research, I have discovered five interesting facts about playing cards, that you may not have heard about before. If you want me to continue creating this series, let me know, and I will try to dig up another set of interesting facts.

Personally, I put more polish on the magic when I'm performing to anybody who aren't my sounding boards, so to speak. In most cases, women react better to magic, and aren't watching you as closely as the men are. However, that doesn't mean you should relax any on doing your absolute best to...

I tend to be able to gauge first, whether they will or won't be interested in what I have to show them, when I initially approach them. Were I to do more coin magic, I would perform an effect involving both cards and coins in their own separate magical moments. Whichever one gets the more...

Congrats man. You deserved it!

Using flicker is a good idea, and springs or sideways dribbles seem to work for me as well. But before I return a dropped card to the rest of the pack, I always wipe it on a fabric surface first.

I too, feel your pain. Many people who I perform magic with know that it's not real, and often times they call it a good "trick". This is why I refrain from overusing "trick" and prefer to call each thing an "effect". If I call it a "trick", it overstates the obvious, and people seem to adopt a...

Durability wise, this deck of cards has a thinner stock, which makes it quite nice for flourishes and easy to manipulate. However, the durability is not the greatest for the long run. I took a deck of these cards out for use, and it's lasted me for about one month. Now (one month later) the...

Guess 1: 4 of spades and 7 of hearts Guess 2: 10 of diamonds and 6 of clubs

I personally never use any form of the pass in my magic. Since my hands are too small to effectively cover the pass, I never learned it with the intent to use it. The fact that my hands are not large enough to palm a playing card or execute the pass or similar moves without flashing, has caused...

What I would like to see in a Saturday Night Contest is a create an effect challenge where an everyday object is announced as the focus of the effect. That way, we have to create an original effect, but center it around one specific item. I am also a huge fan of video and graphic editing, and...

Not a problem. I enjoy putting this content out, as it is quite fun for me to produce.

If you are questioning whether to purchase the Silver Steampunk deck by Theory 11, don't! Watch this review to clarify your second guesses, see what the deck looks like, and how it handles.

When will the result on that contest be announced?

Just out of curiosity, was the Expose video just a place for a third guess, or was it separate from this forum? Also, congratulations FTL_FTK!

I have a deck of Theory 11's White Artisans, which I have now used for over one year (most decks don't get anywhere close to this), but now they feel terrible. The stock feels soft, squishy, oily, and dirty all at the same time. I can still do most fans and spreads with it though, but it is...

Guess 1: Golden State Warriors: 106-83 Guess 2: Cleveland Cavaliers: 102-91

I discovered this effect that can be performed for that special someone entirely by accident, as I was experimenting with spelling card effects. As far as I'm aware, this is the only romantic card effect of its kind on the internet right now. Although, I am curious to know if you have seen or...

In this video, I perform a romantic card effect that uses the phrase, "I love you," to discover the card chosen by the special someone.
