    Screwing Up on Stage

    You had a good audience... people that appreciates the magic and the effort applause anyway, because they enjoy the show, and love what you are doing... Also...I am not sure it was bad that the ACAAN failed... when doing mentalism, is advisable that you have some screw up, in order to not look...

    impromptu torn and restored card

    simple... you can even do it with a borrowed deck... have a spectator select a card, make a DL with another card and then use the indiferent card to tear it...then produce the original one as you like... not a good as other prepared T&R but you can work around this premise... good luck!!
