That's where I saw them before. Btw, does anyone know if they come i both read and blue, or just red?

I found these - they can only be bought in bricks and are about $4.50 per deck. http://conjuringarts.org/2011/11/professional-bicycle%C2%AE-playing-cards/ They don't come in Mnemonica but they are (and I quote) "arranged similarly to the Spanish, or Fournier, order. It is a natural Stay-Stack...

First off, I wish you the best of luck - maybe you can find a way around the system legally! Secondly, I am pretty sure this deck is real - no fake deck would go trough the process of printing copyright info - especially on the tuck flap. The deck also is identical to any Bicycle Standard deck...

Thanks! I had no idea they were released recently, which is probably why I was confused. Anyways, Thanks!

Al e Cat Dabra, I see where you're coming from, but at the same time, I think you may have misinterpreted what I'm saying. I'm NOT saying Will did a bad job, or doesn't deserve credit in anyway. He deserves all the credit he has gotten, and then some. I'm simply saying that he focused too much...

I personally disagree. I think the audience was more focused on how great the magic was, not the magician himself. His performance was absolutely brilliant. He could have linked his performance better though. Also, I think it is not entirely right for you to say that most magicians are more...

Hey guys! So I've been super interested in classic looking marked cards for an effect (specifically readers, or really easy to read marked cards) and run into a predicament: Cards are expensive! Now I know that I can make my own system (which I have done) blah blah blah, but I was really...

I'm not entirely sure he will make a presentation though. He really didn't speak before or after the trick, and I feel like he probably thinks people will think he's completely rewritten his act if he talks too much.

Would you say it's okay to do it at an angle where the focus is more so on the spectators?

My bad, I'll put ideas there in the future :)

I have a bit of a predicament. I have an effect that I've been testing in real life for about 6 months, and have been developing for about a year. I plan to release it later this year. The only problem is this; While the trick itself is completely angle proof, and comes with its own...

I would prefer more of an honest trailer - a performance followed by what you are actually receiving. I am starting to hate magic trailers that give you an epileptic seizure and still have no punch line.

I doubt it. Unless it truly is a close up effect, I doubt he would sell a massive stage illusion like that, unless its in a book. But Hey, Who knows? Maybe (god forbid) he flops next round an decides to release it the next day.

You could just click on the link and read... but ok. Here are some (I don't own all of them, and some aren't in stock anymore) MINT by 52kards Kings by Ellusionist (I belive the gold ones are fully marked, and the others only tell you the value, not the pip, but you would have to email them and...

Is that the carnival game where you have to pick which hole is on the inside, and you can never win? I honestly have never performed it, nor seen anyone perform it, save one video on YouTube.

What your looking for is a marked deck. I'm gonna point you to an older discussion we had about what some of the better marked decks out there are. However, you can easily make your own (if you want to know, I can give you the link to a few great tutorials)...

A ton of cards are marked. What kind are you looking for?

I know I've seen a similar deck before, but can't tell if these are the same deck I saw. Has anyone used these and are they really all they are supposed to be? http://www.penguinmagic.com/p/8474

I was wondering what the difference was! Thanks! Will probably pick this up over the summer :)

That is very true, I wasn't sure how to word it at the time. Let me rephrase: A skilled card cheat could use his own doctored cards in his own deck to accomplish the effect. This wouldn't take away from the effect, but I just wanted to know what the full story is. If he did use a borrowed deck...
