I think one of the simplest and most effective ways is to just hold a break at their card and when you cut the deck to do a riffle or faro shuffle, cut to the break and just make sure that card gets to the top/bottom. I also use that same method with a Faro Shuffle to get a peak at their card.

I'd say what got me started was Criss Angel. I loved his show at the time and I ran to youtube and would look up how to do his tricks and found some pretty bpring tricks along the way. Then my Dad had some girl from his work visit and I showed her all my stupid tricks and somehow she found...

Isn't that kinda revealing the trick?

I'm not sure what you'll perform but I would definitely say not to have them lower than you sitting around you. There are so many tricks where the only bad angle is from underneath and then they won't see the cards as well as they should.

lol This is the Theory 11 forums not the Penguin forums.

I agree. I remember when I first saw The Trilogy's trailer and I had NO idea how hard the material would be. My advice is to make sure you don't bite off more than you can chew. I took it one step at a time and started with the sybil and worked my way up.

That same thing happened to me with Stigmata. He really pisses me off cause he figured that he knew he sucked too much at magic to get famous so he just buys other people tricks or just finds it on youtube and reveals it. It's funny how he always messes up too and all the girls he surrounds...

I bought the Tarantula and was overall disappointed. Sure there are some great effects you can do but it's too un-reliable. Half the time it doesn't even retract for me. Imagine doing a trick where a bill flies from one hand to the other and nothing happens. Also, it's just too hard to...

By the way I meant something like a website. I don't have any magic shops in my entire city.

I wanted to buy some flash paper but I don't know where. I couldn't find any on penguin so does anyone have any suggestions? Also, are there anything things I should be careful with when using it?

Watch the preview for Card Manipulation V.3 in the 1-on-1 section and at the beginning he does a deck production. Would that be your style?

So what? The internet isn't running out of space anytime soon. Why not give an idea? I would also say Wiregrams by the way.

I know my presentation for this trick was poor and I thank you for your advice. The reason I resorted to a gimmick was because I just found that it makes the trick SOOO much simpler. All the methods I've seen for a triumph were either not convincing enough or the sleight of hand was just too...

It was good but work on your coin switch. Also, it kinda gives in away when you bend a coin a lot then once you hand it out to be examined it's only slightly bent.

What do you mean when you say there was no reason to turn the deck over?

This is a Triumph trick I came up with recently which you can view here Sorry for the bad quality. I really need to buy a new camera. Enjoy! If you have any comments post them here. Thanks, Charlie

First off I just think the issue of all the people bashing other users for posting a thread that's already been posted. Have you ever thought that maybe they want to bring the topic back up to get some more opinions. And so what if they start a new thread. I don't think the internet will run...

Is the man next to Dan Sperry, Shawn something? He looks familiar and I think I remember him from a show i saw.

Could you perhaps explain this a bit more. I don't see how we are being deceived by this video.

I've encounted these types of people before. I call them zombie hecklers. Just do things that have a kicker ending and that shoudl help
