Hello T11 members, First off Happy Thanksgiving. Second, how can an entertainer that does sleight of hand make it known that he is there to entertain, not fool the pants off the receiving party over and over. Sometimes it's about everybody relaxing and not all about the chance to catch a...

What do you guys think about Peter Duffie. He seems to have some incredible ideas, I bought one book by him and everything in there has setup. I am the kind of performer that likes going out with a card folded in my shoe, and having fun and taking advantage of every situation. I don't enjoy...
