The first example that comes to mind is one of Dai Vernon's colour changes, in, I believe, Inner Card Trilogy. Lewis Ganson writes something to the effect of, Exact movements will vary from person to person. From all reports of the people I know who have learned Raise Rise, I've yet to hear one...

Maybe it's because I know him personally, but it doesn't come across that way to me. Incidentally, remember that these are guidelines in general. Good grammar and spell checks help a lot - which is not to say that you can't say lol. lol.

I second that bro.

Hey mate, that's right, it does feature a variation of KK. I don't have Anate unfortunately so I can't comment on that (Being a student sucks... Can't wait till I'm earning the big bucks... In my dreams... :P), though I *may* get it in a few weeks. Hmm, Safwan Papers. Some great routines in...

Steven, Sorry I did not get to this thread sooner. Make the most of it buddy, you've earned it. Congratulations :)

I've spoken against goodbye threads, and I don't disagree. But that's an oversimplification and nothing more than a poor excuse for a final attack, a final word. Don't tell me that if I had written the goodbye thread, or if say Sean_Raf had written that goodbye thread, you would have written...

Not sure there are enough serious members to warrant it. It'd be sitting there a lot and feel an awful like the cardistry forum (sorry, T11). I second pretty much exactly what Steerpike said.

I'd hope that most people do that by default...

Drawing Room Deceptions is fairly difficult, I'll say that much. I don't have Card Fictions yet so I can't compare the two unfortunately, but I will say that you won't be disappointed by DRD, it's very good.

He always does that. It doesn't help that Derren has his own legion of fanboys who insist that it was his incredible abilities at NLP. And miss something incredibly simple.

It's a very difficult sleight, for good reason. The move IS very hard. But there's no magic key here, except practice. People are so stiff with practice. You need to experiment and see what works, I can't believe more people don't do this. Incidentally, are you sure you have the DVD? I'm fairly...

Good morn'. Hmm. What you are saying about psychological forces/work in general, e.g. fishing, is true. That wasn't the method I use, though (it's surefire), or specifically what I was referring to; nonetheless, it's an interesting idea, and one I entertained myself. Although, in performing my...

A lot of what you said is certainly true - and if it works, by all means stick with it. A few final thoughts for tonight and I'll revisit this tomorrow and see if anything new has been added. Hmm. But what if you can read his mind? What if you do find his card, despite him shuffling it? This...

Jeez dude, I went through some reviews of Brook's work, and all I can say is, I want to buy everything! I will definitely check it out, probably next month due to finances, but it's at the top of my list now, I'll let you know when I make my way through it. In the meantime, shhh! :D Thanks for...

Everyone goes through nervousness. Nerves are good - but in time you'll start feeling them less. But it's completely natural dude, just keep at it, and you'll do fine. Keep breathing, and if you're really unsure, start with a self-working trick. It also usually disappears a short while into the...

Haha. "Try it, and let us know if you get hospitalised." :P Again, I don't think so - but it's probably best to visit a doctor and explain the situation. I should think that it's not something I'd do often though, even if it was cleared. A little may be harmless, but 5 x a little adds up.

Hmm. RDC, would you say that that puts you in an uphill battle and an immediate disadvantage then? You're the magician and audience control and establishing guidelines of magic is your role. It's an odd thing to get used to, this sort of power - and yet, it's something that can be a great tool...

Clarification: The line I posted before was theoretically spoken by the spectator. The problem I can see with those options, sciffy (not to pick on you btw but I do find this topic interesting), is that they all seem rather weak to me. You're right on two counts, firstly and more importantly...

It sounds like a person like that would simply insist on you telling him his card, though. "Why do you need to see it? Just tell me what it is."

I love A Simple Sandwich.. Nice choice to follow it with Search & Destroy. Not sure it's fast enough to be an opener though, it feels like a middle piece.
