I remain skeptical towards that supposed explanation of the origins of playing cards. I intend on researching this further.

First off, awesome thread. As far as a routine, doing any torn and restored card with a changed up patter that talks about how the card represents your life and how Jesus put it back together, that's a great illustration. I don't know if you've ever heard of him, but a very talented...

It sounds like quite an eventful night, the way you describe it. I'm definitely not convinced though, I get a sense of exaggeration when reading your post. But, assumptions aside, it sounds like you had a lot of fun.

Thank you Langston3711, I just wanted to make sure I gave proper credit to the original creator.

Here's the link to the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SuKWpcomic8 Does anyone here now what the name of the first card effect he does? Thank you ahead of time!

This has been quite an exciting discussion. I really liked Bizarro's points. Great analogy Pj!

Beautiful analogy Shodan! I agree, someone who has just started off in magic shouldn't go anywhere near the pass. For me personally, I didn't start working on the Classic Pass until I had been performing for several months. Plus, I made sure I had practiced it enough before I performed it. I...

I use the Classic Pass frequently, and I have never been caught. Using just the slightest misdirection, the pass is finished without a thought. Now yes, there are sleights that accomplish the same thing, but from the perspective of the spectator, to see a card put in the middle of the deck...

The change you performed is the Super Flip I believe. Panic was nicely done, and that switch pretty much accomplished the same thing as the 1on1 does. All nicely performed in my opinion.

I always see videos advertised as "The Houdini Change" and "The Erdnase Change," but the actual color change is identical. What is this color change actually called? It's just something I've been curious about for quite some time.

Well in my opinion, I would go for something card related, but that's just me. I'm a card worker myself, so I tend to go for things relating to cards. Digital Dissolve looks very impressive, and I myself am also tempted to purchase it. If you wanna change things up, go for it. In my opinion...

-Biddle Trick -Be Honest, Where Is It? -Dr. Daley's Last Trick -Hot Shot Cut -Razzle Dazzle Cut

You couldn't have said it better. Simple really does hit hard. For example, I had a card selected and I revealed it using the Razzle Dazzle Cut and I couldn't believe the reaction I got! I still use it as one of my main effects.

I like to use the Classic Pass and the Double Undercut for a top control. For a bottom control I usually just Overhand Shuffle, but occasionally I use a bottom control I came up with that works pretty well. As far as a favorite steal I don't think I really use one, but the Side Steal...

I like to use Vintage Bikes for performances, mainly because I like the look of them. I use regular Bikes to practice with and occasionally perform with. I prefer using Studs to perform though, because the finish is nicer in my opinion, and they seem to last longer than normal Bikes. I am...

This site is fantastic. The design, the tricks, the cards, everything about this site is just great! The quality and creativity of the videos is one of the main things that impresses me. I love the way you guys think, keep up the great work!
