    Magician-fooling Magic Trick- For Real

    I'm not sure how much of that trick Andy came up with, since the idea is much older than him. But thank you for sharing anyways ;)

    I'm one of those kids....

    It is very discrepant. If you cut the deck and present it as selected card being reversed in the center, it would make more sense.

    ACAAN - Your favourite version/Best version

    Boris Wild's ACAAN, by far the cleanest version out there, and probably the most complicated lol

    Creating FILTER (and other magic)

    Same. I never actually sat down to create something. I have ideas that come and go as I think about magic (which I do 24/7), but never actually created something original (method wise). I do create A LOT of presentational ideas, handling of existing sleights/moves/routines, presentation...

    Newton's Nightmare LIVE performance (MUST SEE)

    So you pretty much made the spectator fail and you succeed? Big no no... Turn the tables around. Make her do the "magic gesture", put the ball in and catch the ball. I don't know the method, or if what I said is even possible. But if it is, do it, if not, drop the trick. You can see on her face...

    First Restaurant Gig - Disaster

    Hey guys, let me chime in with couple of words. I also like and support the idea of making rapport first, and doing magic second, but if you ever worked in a busy restaurant you will know that’s almost impossible. Between ordering food, waiters bringing bread, bringing water and ice tea...

    Where Magic Becomes Pure Beautiful Art

    Hmmm, it says that this routine won the first place on FISM. However it lacks most of the things we talk about here on the forums, that are "important" in magic. - "See Say Do" type presentation: "We have a green light and cards become green", "We have a blue light and cards become blue" -...

    Dribble Color Change?

    That can easily be achieved with Duck change.

    But in their hands?

    JM's First hand vs RS's Extreme burn 2.0

    I have Extreme Burn 2.0, and I'm about to get First Hand, so I will be able to compare the two. But for now, one thing that FH lacks (as far as I could tell from the video) is visual element. It is fast, it is impossible, it is in spectators hands, but there is a split second of cover, which...

    New Presentation on Rapture (Need Suggestions)

    You're welcome :) However, I still don't like the patter (and to be honest, I don't like the trick in general either). It still doesn't make sense why would you take the cards out of the box, then back in the box, then out of the box, then saying about a coin trick, just to change your mind...

    New Presentation on Rapture (Need Suggestions)

    Couldn't agree more. It doesn't make any sense, it's no good. And it would not work for restaurant/table hopping, trust me on that one. Also you did flash, on your right hand side. Practice the handling and use different patter.

    3 Gigs Today - Ouch

    Nice Rick, well done. Now imagine doing all of that, every single day, for 6-8 months... welcome to the cruise ship ;) I would never done balloon sculpting, mainly because I don't like performing for kids (well, most kids anyways), so you have my deepest respect for that :) Now this may sound...

    Free magic!!

    I'm not sure if you can claim originality to this color change since it has been done a lot of times before, in different ways.

    Invisible Deck

    Also, when you show that one card is face down, let the spectator pull the card out and show it around. This will add the layer of deception as you do not care or put any emphasis on the deck, so they will think the deck is normal. It's all about your attitude.

    Weak minded people. What to do?

    I just tell them straight away: "just take one card out, MAKE SURE TO REMEMBER THE CARD, and show the card to everybody else". I emphasize to them to remember the card. It works like a charm.

    A Members Challenge...

    Completely understandable. Take your time, do what you must first. I have enough of these to keep the thread alive for a while :)
