To clarify, these are not a T11 print job, however, these reprints of the old 727 decks are one of the BEST decks hands down that I've handled from USPCC... especially with the move to the Erlanger plant. I was told that these were in a limited print run, but not sure if they are going to print...

"I bet that's how he treats his girlfriend!"

What you are looking for is a 52 factorial.. A great reference for stats to enhance impossibility

Take a theater class.

I will be going this year

Keep in mind to maintain the 2+ way dialogue and don't script so that your piece is just a 1 way monologue to the audience.. Even with scripts, your performance must always have spontaneity. In some pieces I do, I entertain verbatim to the script I wrote for it.. Just play around with your...

This isn't really a "magicy" piece ... You aren't using supernatural forces to cover the true method. You have a lighter and flash paper. More like something you present to explain the doctrines of education of magic and it has to do with physics.. Or skill, or whatever pertains to your...

It is not listed on the Redford page, but Dan Fishman is going to host a brainstorm session on think-a-card. Should be fun! Information copied from Patrick's page. http://magicbygeorg.4dwebhosting.com/store/events.php JULY 30th, 2011! You're invited to this special one day of a...

Honestly, there are plenty of things that negatively affect our art of magical entertainment. Who cares. If I ever meet a PUA and they would like to discuss magic, I'm going to discuss magic with them. I don't mind. Each magic trick is designed to give the entertainer higher value...

With your Hermann pass, you are executing the shift after you close the spread. Try tossing the packet AS you close the spread. Otherwise, it just telegraphs that something is happening. Overall, each pass that I saw looked like a move. I could either hear, see, or just tell by how your...

In the Berglas book, David explains the differences between CAAN and the Berglas effect, one stressed point being that he doesn't touch the deck before or after, whereas in most CAAN/ACAAN pieces the deck is handles before and after. I think that the Berglas Effects is a good read if you've...

Just wanted to chime in here, but the move that you are doing is already in print. I think you have reinvented THE DRAUN CONTROL from the December 2005 issue of GENII. The Draun move is based on an unpublished Frank Thompson move which was shown to Ricky Jay Draun's is based on Marlo's Movable...

Sorry bud, not a fan. Then again. I absolutely hate the plot. But thank you for sharing

Just go to the Tragic Cafe.

Why post about other shifts when we are discussing the classic pass and its inherent issues?

As far as your speed and invisibility on the move, take out maybe a deck and a half or 2 decks and just start passing them. This will build your muscles and get you to find where your fingers need to be to get it going faster. When you switch back to 1 deck, your pass will be much faster. I...

I've been working on the move for a few years now, and I can vouch that I still do not have it down. But here's what you should know... The pass is literally the WORST method for controlling a card because of how it is situated. I only use the pass for a few things, but never a control. Keep...

It isn't really an ambitious card sequence... Even with patter, from a technical aspect, it's just a bunch of re appearances with no linear model of progression. Performing this will cloud the audience's perception of what the initial effect was. Keep your ambitious card separated from your...

I got a copy from Kaufman. I have an extra copy on my shelf if you are interested in the book.

I suppose I'd just have to plow through 5,000 decks in my storage shed over my lifetime... Shouldn't be too hard. :)
