    EMC shipping DVD's to Retailers

    The site never imposed a clear deadline on registering, ONLY a time at which the live lectures would be held. Nowhere have I seen info regarding EMC that says it's going to be a secretive thing. So crying about how it's being stocked by big retailers is just that - you crying. Without much...

    Greek deal in masters grip?

    Magic of Fred Robinson has a modified erdnase grip for the greeks. Marlo and Ackerman are your best bet. If you don't mind a download, lybrary.com has the minus one bottom deal for a few bucks. It's got the video portion of just the greek deal on there once you download it.

    Are Gambling Demos really "Gambling Demos" Or another type of Flourish?

    I meant I'd be having the dealer deal from a full grip with a cut card - although Clock said somewhere on the Cafe that he created a bottom deal from full grip, and I tend to agree with his thoughts here: Not that I wouldn't write someone off for using a full grip like Clock as far as...

    Are Gambling Demos really "Gambling Demos" Or another type of Flourish?

    If you're in a game, obviously people have different styles of handling cards, but in the end - it's good to be looking somewhat like everyone else at the game. Also, may just be me, but mucking seems a lot easier if you're the dealer, or it'd be too much work to clean up - but I'm just talking...

    Are Gambling Demos really "Gambling Demos" Or another type of Flourish?

    Yeah. Going to be a bit stereotypical, but if you're playing with 4 other 50 year old rednecks smoking pot, drinking booze, and talking about their pickup trucks who overhand shuffle in a sloppy manner or a bunch of 21 year olds in a college dorm who look like they've never held a deck in their...

    Walking Liberties

    Everyone criticizing the Artifact coins is like a 12 year old watching CNN - they just repeat **** without understanding it. I don't know about you, but in my coin performances, the coin is never held in a position close enough and in a friendly enough view for the spectators to read the word...

    Lennart Green's Master File

    It's been out for a while now, and seeing as they still don't have it, I'm starting to doubt that. But oh well.

    Did you see the time between his post, my post, and your post? Clearly he's already edited it if it doesn't make sense now... But nice try.

    Stevens Cull Performance

    I guess culling is like stacking, in a way. Culling's all block transfers, people just do it slightly differently. Same for stacking - usually, a different method refers to different algorithms for stacking. In the end, stacking's just placing cards a certain number from the top (or bottom) with...

    Nah. I bet even Turner could feel the wind he was generating from that second deal hehe.

    Do magician's ever have a poker night where anyone who comes is supposed to cheat?

    Few of my layman buddies watched the video (emailed them a link), and even they could tell me it was suspicious handling. They didn't always understand quite what he was doing, but it's ridiculous and would break any sort of standard procedure. Final verdict: Cheating persona background? BS...

    What kind of palm do you use the most in the real world ?

    I think that you should be asking what technique people use to get into these palms, rather than the palm itself. It changes things quite a bit. As for me, probably a Joe Berg palm to hold out one card.

    Do magician's ever have a poker night where anyone who comes is supposed to cheat?

    Hey, I'm a cheat. I got my ass kicked because I had a major !@#$-up card counting when I was younger. Prove I'm not a cheat. To add to Daniel Madison's video, his DPS flashes a major break at the front. And I'd be suspicious of any guy who's moving their left hand back and forth like...

    Are Gambling Demos really "Gambling Demos" Or another type of Flourish?

    As well as in your home games. If you show up to a poker game 3 nights a week and after 5 years, you're still doing a "terrible" overhand shuffle, something's up. Just because a cheat doesn't wish to stand out at a card table, doesn't mean he can't show he knows how to handle a deck of cards...

    If only it was truly Calen's idea... This is a disgrace. We should have this thread removed for idiotic replies.

    Stevens Cull Performance

    Nice job. Only main problem I see is a speed-up at the beginning of the shuffle, and then you start to slow down suddenly half-way through. Try working on a more consistent speed. Hope that helps.

    Prove it. As far as I can tell, he's just a guy who can do the moves. Not a cheat.

    Double Review :: Penetration Effects

    For a guy who wants to buy every cool new visual magic DVD out there, you've got quite a bit to learn about what can be made into true magic... It's a great piece. I don't just buy every $25-$35 D&D DVD, review it, stick it on my shelf, and never watch it again.
