Yes, with MPD, you can fan,but DREAM DECK can be done hands off! That is a definite advantage in my opinion, plus the deck can be used as a thought of card at number. Cards could be dealt face up ( try that with the PMD) for a card to be thought of. MPD is a great deck. DD is far more...

Riffle force combined with halo cut for bottom and can ask if like to change mind. For top, DL. In fact, why not have on duplicate on top of deck so if your CF misses, you have a pretty easy out?

A quickie is have a card selected Tell them there card is not marked or scratched in anyway... as you show the back! I believe this is a Bill malone idea

The hangman as always, spot on. My advice is if doing cards and mentalism, be careful how your routine flows. I really like how Michael finney does his show so my set is much like his. Focus on quality not quantity.

I have to agree with all. No way will you hit 100% You will need a back up plan. Now, it could be as simple as having a duplicate in the deck and a DL.

I have to agree with Rmana and Cedwards90. Another idea is why not start with it already reversed and do OH shuffle keeping it on the bottom?

The Hangman is correct. I am also a huge Osterlind fan. I would also recommend not falling into the too perfect syndrome.

A couple of the older ones are Radar deck, Cassandra deck, force of thought, and the mind power deck. I do know of two more that hit the market. One is the dream deck by Nick Verna. In fact, Peter Duffie endorses it as the think of a card deck he will use from now on. After he said it...
