Hi everyone ! A long time ago, I've seen a video on youtube of a bald magician performing a demonstration (probably at L&L publishing) on the hand mucking. I don't find the video any more so I think it has been removed, all I can remember from the video is that the magician explained that...

Thanks, sorry for the mistake, I don't master all english equivalents for sleights' names I know that, but there's a difference between someone who know handle cards and a real card sharp, if a card sharp showed all his skill at the card table, he would be dead, so he can't show his real...

You're right, a real card sharp must always hide his skill. Whereas For a magician who wants to amaze his audience, that's the exact opposite. A good example of that is Steve Forte: in his famous four kings video (which is apparently no on youtube any more, but you can find it on dailymotion)...

That's very good, I began to work on riffle cull 2 years ago and I know how it's difficult to do. Consistent speed is properly all the difficult of some riffle cull. For information: basic riffle cull is already one of the most difficult technique possible with a deck of cards. Stevens cull...

That's pretty good. Believe me, your riffle stacking is enough deceptive for a neophyte public. Just one thing: That's maybe nothing but you sniffed when you cut on the crimp. If it's a nervous twitch, take care about it. Cordially, Cardeyron.

I don't know if I've a suficient english vocabulary to explain that, but I can try: Before you start your demo, explain how a poker game is: -You say that firstly, the dealer must shuffles the deck (without do it). -Then you explain the guy at the dealer's right cut the deck. Say "I give you...

+1 I wanted to say it but he did it before me. Very well explained though. Ps: Where do you live exactly in France ? And are you an FFAP's member ?

I bought it on december 5th and I've not recieved it, were they already in sold out at that time ?

Ok, thanks a lot for advises.

Yes, I just wanted to told the video dated 5 month ago, and that I improved the problem of the knuckle flash. And of course, all comments are welcomed, I don't wanted to appear rude. But it's my fault, I forgott to tell something important in my firt post, when I asked for recommandation, I...

I push out bottom cards with my left fingers, but I do it diagonaly, so we can't see the movement in detail. For the knuckle flash on the get ready, I tried long time ago to hide it, now it's virtually invisible (at least for a regular bottom deal) poonchingyip, I think modified erdnase grip...

Yes, I agree, and my video was just a simple idea and in no case a claim on Erdnase. Moreover, that's not the principal thread's subject. In the first part of the book, erdnase speaks all the time about real cheating, and in this case, I agree with him on all his words, but i speak about...

Hi, I need to get a consecutive bottom deal with a full deck for different magic and gambling effects, and also cause I do all my false deals with full deck... That was my first attempt: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O0oWxZMCPVw In fact, this video was the answer to a question I...

Always peek the spectator's card is a great idea, I thought to this when I started card magic and I often loose the card... Another great way is the key cards. For instance, you have a key card under the deck, do a swing cut and tell to the spectator to replace his card. Complete the cut, do...

I believe it has already done before, but not sure, at least something like this already exist. But nevertheless it's always good to invent his own techniques.

The only order I will be able to give is: 1-Dai Vernon 2-Ricky Jay 3-Daniel Madison After that, I would say I admire the dextirity and technical know-how of Steve Forte and Jason England.

The best thing I read about informations on Erdnase was David Britland and Gazzo's "Phantoms of the Card Table". It contains an entire chapter dedicated to the mystery of Erdnase, all details found on him through years are mentioned in it; at least, there are a lot. Moreover I think TeeDee had...

Dai Vernon published a blindfold poker demonstration, inspired by the legendary Walter Irving Scott. You can find this routine in "Dai vernon - inner secret trilogy" or something like that. I dont know the routine but maybe that will help you.

Most plausible, yes. But magic is not plausible. It is a dream that extroardinary guys makes appear in minds of peoples. And in the present case, even if it is not magic, it's the same thing.

At beggining, when I saw the video for the first time, I believed that was a stooge. But after have heard about different riffle culling methods, I think he use one for get nines, and I think also that all the firt riffle shuffles was full deck controls. But Nevertheless, it is incredibly clever.
