if someone asks me to do something i will usually use a centre tear peek thing. As far as a pet routine PK touches is the flavour of the month before that it was For Andruzzi. It is constantly changing

"because I'm kind of a jerk" (something like that) Joel Paschal fan control

I agree with King Of Cards about using the clipshift as a control is where the move really shines. It has quickly become one of my favourite methods. I am not sure about comparing it to the Erdanase colour change though. I find that a lot of the more intellectual spectators will create an...

A little method that I have done a little bit is a combination of catch from dangerous and the traditional sloppy shuffle triumph. It is a great little piece to throw in a sandwich routine or as a mess up lets try something new type piece.

Classic Force, there is just so much you can do with it.

It fools people, no ifs ands or buts. If you watch the preview of Oz Pearlman's Triumph dvd he does and it got a nice reaction. The method is fairly simple and gives you so much room for presentation. I did it for the first the other night and it went very well.

I personally don't use swami's (I know I should) but a great book is Cordina's 13 steps so is Practical Mental Magic. However I would recommend Cassidy's 39 steps as it is a little easier to read and Banachek's Pre-Thoughts as a nice cheap easy show. It will get you a feeling of what mentalism...

Defiantly look into Banachek's work. As far as text books go I cannot really recommend them for the mentalist directly. They are good for an understanding of how the brain works but they were not written for people who want to use it to deceive people. You will find a few gems in them but not...

I almost only use herman style passes nowdays. Whether it is the regular, the out jogged herman or the spread pass.

Think about it this way; A major movie goes for about 100 minutes. Yet they film it for six weeks, sometimes longer. They have to get everything right for the final cut so they film scenes over and over again. Different camera angles, slightly different scripts and bloopers or even just a...

That is a very nice application, the reason being that the audience can actually see the moment that the corner appears. That is so rare even more so in card magic, for example in an ACR the card instantly appears at the top and the audience has to take it at face value whereas an effect like...

There is no real answer. Even if if you can do it at "Chad Speed" it is still a little off looking. Tricycle (the effect on the dvd that is done surrounded) there is still a little flutter with the hand. Chad is a very strong performer and can keep the attention off the deck. In short it is...

I think the reason JB said that took 50 hours of footage was to show the amount of work that went into the DVD.

Jermay's strength is pure beauty. I even used it as induction for hypnosis where the person legitimately could not lift the playing card off a shot glass.

I know it was probably not the best thing I could have done, but the circumstance was hard to explain the guy came over to see what was happening and instantly started causing problems. I was having fun with the audience as a whole and when he came over people the whole mood changed. I have...

The other night I was at a bar just doing some strolling stuff and this guy started getting smart. He was not drunk but he was just trying make me look bad so he asked if he could show me a trick, (I was going to retire the deck anyway that night and I finished work in about 20 minutes) So he...

Matthew Mello has a very clever version called instinct. It is so simple that when you watch the DVD and see the method you probably swear but all in all it is a very deceptive method. Then all you have to do is adopt Keith's handling by using the spectator instead of your own hands.

I was planning to come but now I have to go to court.
