Well, it's good that you are deleting the tutorials you have on you Youtube channel in a week. Better if you take them down now. Second, delete all of the magic you've "traded." Yes, that is obvious what you are doing from your feed. That is piracy and it is illegal. Buy the magic you perform.

If you fan the cards showing the reversed card and the spectator takes the reversed card, cut the deck above the selected card and place the top packet on the bottom. Notice the orientation of the deck. :) When you get the card back put it face down on the bottom of the deck (nobody will...

Very cool. You've got over half of the issues of Apocalypse. These might help you find stuff: Apocalypse 1978 to 1982 Table of Contents Apocalypse 1983 to 1987 Table of Contents Apocalypse 1988 to 1992 Table of Contents I spent close to $300 for the four books (which are now out of...

That is awesome. There IS a ton of great material in both. I have the Apocalypse hard bound books (paid a lot more than $20). How many years of Appocalypse did you pick up? The Genii mags are great too. I have a current subscription and access to the past onesc through Ask Alexander. I've...

If you give a man a fish, he will eat for a day. If you teach him to fish, he will eat for a lifetime.

Try changing two identical cards, but one has writing on it. It is as if the writing appeared.

If you aren't willing to take the time to learn the fundamentals of mentalism, you will not be able to properly perform that effect. You are looking for shortcuts to avoid doing the necessary work to become a competent performer. To spoon feed you the page number would be a disservice to you...

You posted this when I was typing my prior post. Let me give you my thoughts. First, the opener seems way to contrived for a justification for you to change your shirt. Second, the arm twisting trick is a great opener for a longer show, but seems inappropriate for a 10 minute performance...

Arman: You seem to be too focused on the tricks and not the presentation. It's like saying you are hungry and then picking four random foods - Cheese Doodles, Coco Puffs, Sushi and Ice Cream. Yeah, individually they are good, but there is no reason for eating them together, let alone in that...

Really good job and a solid routine. I have a couple of thoughts and suggestions to make the routine smoother and more magical. Please note, I wouldn't make these suggestions if you didn't have a good routine that could be made better. 1. I'm not a big fan of having the rings around your...

The link doesn't work. It is to your "my videos" page which we can't access.

Your problem is that you are simply thinking like a magician. An Erdnase change, presented to a lay spectator looks like the impossible. When you learn how it is done, it doesn't look as good. So you see another change that looks impossible and when you learn how it is done, it doesn't look...

I don't know, I wasn't that impressed by her performance. She seems to rely too much on the gimmick (which would seem apparent to lay audiences based on how she used it) and little on skill. I think you would be better off getting a good set of regular rings, Levent's DVD on the linking rings...

Hey guys, I'm really interested in watching the Super Bowl on an HD television - one of the 70 inch ones. Does anyone know where I can find a new one for free? Im not sure if I'd like it and don't want to have to pay for something I might not use. Oh, and don't give me some big guy's...

Roberto Giobbi has a deck switch book coming out - Stephen Minch is publishing it through Hermetic Press. He had the lecture notes at the Genii Bash and they sold out instantly. I learned one of the best deck switches from Greg Wilson at a lecture... not sure if he teaches it on any of his...

Christian had been using a "regular" deck. I recall the deck being spread face up on the table, turned over so the deck was face down and a card selected. The spectator then put the card back into the face down spread. Christian then took the deck and spread half of it face up and half face...

Speaking of Triumph, Christian Engblom fooled the crap out of me on Tuesday night performing a amazingly clean Triumph using the Cooler and a Cheek to Cheek deck. My test for a gimmicked deck is similar to yours - does it do something I can't do using sleight of hand.

No problem. Unfortunately, I have way too much experience finding magic to buy. Start with Mark Wilson's Complete Course. It gives a great introduction to magic and has some great effects. It covers cards, coins, bills, sponge balls, rope, mental magic and more. You can pick that up at...
