If you're selling this trick, I think its only fair if you can perform it yourself for the audience. If there is a move you cannot do, find a way around it by using a different move, or learn the move. You should definitely test the trick with an audience multiple times. And please make sure the...

If there is absolutely nothing you can do, accept it. You will generally be given an out in the misdirection. Just admit you messed up. If, for example, it was a find a card routine, you could look through the deck after asking them what their card was, cull it to the top, and do a shape...

Well a couple of my friends are generally in on it when I cheat, and I always make sure to do it in a scenario where there is a clear second winner, or way to take back the cheating without disrupting the game. Sometimes though, I'll do it when the game is super boring for everyone and we just...

I've never gambled, and don't plan to ever do so. However, me and my friends at school play A LOT of card games -BS, Slaps, Slapjack, Caps, you name it. I sometimes get an urge to cheat at these games for fun (obviously telling my friends that I cheated afterwards). For example, the other day we...

That sounds interesting... I've never heard of them, so can you send a url?

If you definately want to get the cups and balls before you learn the routine, what is your Price Range? If your willing to spend $15 - $20 you can find some pretty good ones on amazon and other online magic retailers. Check out a magic shop if there's one near you.

Well if you want to print just a few out, visit either https://www.zazzle.com/us_playing_card or http://www.makeplayingcards.com/ Those cards won't have as nice of a handle as other cards, but they will still function as a playing deck, and as a prototype for distribution. The cost per deck...

Of course, if spectators get suspicious about a slight, find a way to change it without making it obvious.

How much are you willing to py, and how many decks do you want, and is it a prototype?

Duck Change - Probably not the best place to ask this though.

It shoul be fine. In fact, consistency through an effect generally takes a lot of heat off.

May I ask why it is called the Amish force?

@TomMarv I think this is just a variation of the game Nim. You can look it up on YouTube - Scam School and Numberphile have great videos on it, and I believe the Scam School Remix uploaded this Monday (yesterday for me) also features a similar game. I'm assuming the pyramid was like this...

In that sense, almost any force can be. The most convincing one I've experienced is actually a riffle force. But even a cross cut force works fine. It all depends on how you, as the magician, are. If you're tense, they'll be tense - if you're relaxed, they won't care.

So I just bought Michael Ammar's Card to Ceiling and have been messing around with it. It doesn't seem to be working for me, and the pamphlet is a bit confusing (or I'm just stupid). For those of you who have used and own the effect, can you please PM me, so I can ask the questions without...

Oh I just remembered - once I did a full routine to aunt. She responded with something that translates to "You haven't been learning this from those Satan worshipers, have you?" Only, she asked me this AFTER she told my dad 0_0

Note to self: When you are finished reading RCT, reread it. Also, quick question - when getting the break for a cop on one - 4 or any small number of cards, should I use a pinky pull down, or a buckle? Does it matter?

I feel like this book is increasing my magic knowledge exponentially, So glad I picked it up!

Er.. the blood marking system isn't a deck of cards :| I just went to all the URLs I used to go search it up on.... all are taken down. I think it may be down for good :(

A simple mind reading routine one had spectators accuse me of hypnosis...
