Well I've been getting into gambling sleights lately and i'm right now practicing the bottom deal, which i learned from Expert Card Technique. However, i wasn't able to comprehend any other gambling slights from the book. Which is normal cuz i usually like to learn through video. So does...

I actually started out flourishing when i saw Cardshark88 on youtube. Later, i got more interested in magic and now i do both :). If you wanna good start, i suggest you get Royal Road to Card Magic. Or if you're a video-learner, try Born to Perform by Oz Pearlman.

Like the people above me said, you can't. Moment of Zen is simply a application of the Continental Divide by Lee Asher. You can learn that move in his Pulp Friction book. But i'm sure when you learn the move you can figure out moment of Zen

Well congrats on learning your second cut. But beware though, the system is only taught in "Follow Along" form. Meaning they only slow the cuts down (but they REALLY slow it down a LOT) so you can follow along. There are no text or voice instructions. Although some cuts are taught with voice in...

I'm looking for tricks with kicker endings. Like where the spectators think the effect is over but then you hit them with something else. Example of what i'm talking about are: Big Deal (Joshua Jay) Hedberg's Peak (Buck twins) 5 Card Stud (Lee Asher) Triumph with Deck Color Change (dont...

Ya, same here man. I hate the economy crash (well its not a crash but we're nearly there). I asked to buy the Push Through Shuffle and my mom said it was too much. Sigh... i need to get a job. I hope Obama will fix it though.

I have a question, which grip does he teach? I'm right now using the grip taught in Expert Card Technique (with the index finger on the corner). I'm glad someone finally made a review on a Jason England 1-on-1. I thought reviews were gonna flood in after the Stick Second Deal and Push...

Haha, thats funny

Well that's encouraging.

I once scared the crap outta my friend cuz i threw a card (using Ricky Smith's grip) and it cut her finger. Now every time i'm mad at someone i threaten to throw a card and lodge it in there head. of course, they know i'm joking.

The Padidle is spinning a card on your finger and then moving your hand in a circular motion in order to keep it spinning for a long time. It is not Jerry's or Andrei's move. The concept of spinning an object on a stick-like object has been around for a long time. Ex. Basketball spins, spinning...

I live in south western Connecticut and i'm trying to find a magic shop there, mostly cuz i dont wanna have to travel an hour to new york to tannens every time i want to buy something. So does anyone know any magic shops in Connecticut?

i think it represents when the picture was posted. Cuz 12.03.08 is today

Wait whats with the "Is thread stupid" poll?

try using half the deck. As you get more smooth, you will be able to hold the packets together better. Btw, you're doing Madonna in only a month? Thats gotta be pretty tough

I'm hoping its Andrei's dvd.

ya go to Ellusionist, penguin magic, papercraneproductions, anything. You'll find a lot more stuff that you might like. Btw, i really dont care for TOOC. I want Andrei's dvd!!

Ya, worrying about youtube subscribers is a job for youtube comedians. I think the reason he's popular is because he has SO many videos. But i really don't care. P.S. He's one of my subscribers on youtube. I never bothered to subscribe to him.

One word: Anorexia!!! Haha, just kidding, i don't know for sure why he did it but its either that ^ or publicity.

Do the sleights better! I honestly have explained the double lift like a million times to my friends (that aren't magicians) and every time i do a double lift they get fooled. Another way is to find other tricks. Try Triumphs and Sandwich effects. Or you can ask your 2 pro magician buddies to...
