    Biddle Trick: Your Patter ...

    I like the questions, praetoritevong. Have an idea that could work...but I still need to get rid of at least half the deck.

    Biddle Trick: Your Patter ...

    We'll see if yer card is in this half (hand the other to the spectator)...scratch that. Let's make it these 5 instead. If it isn't amongst them, we'll take the next 5 and so on.

    Biddle Trick: Your Patter ...

    I explain what misdirection is, briefly, during the f***e counting of the cards. Then I proceed to explain how it is I'm doing it because they THINK I have a certain ammount of cards when I don't (in a way exposing the actual f***e count), but they never realize how I got it out of there because...

    Biddle count?

    Never said that. I said a single card, BPed. Just be sure to use a patter that allows for touching the spectator (make them position like this, hold the hand out like that, yada yada).

    Justin Miller on Piracy

    That will be solved only with education given by parents and teachers. No law will suffice, for where there's a will...

    Christmas List Already?!

    Harmonica is cheap and can be taken anywhere. I support this thought regardless of the instrument, though.

    Biddle count?

    Possibilities are many. How about a card-to-spectator's-pocket without doubles? It's quite easy with enough thought to it.

    Lets Make It Happen

    What is your name? Alfonso Vallarta (smart, oi?) How long have you been doing magic? Seriously? 6 months. Before I was too lazy with it to actually work on it. How long have you been a member of T11? Nov. 14, 2007. Yet just started again. In your opinion, how has T11 changed since...

    Epic Fails in Magic

    Watch it again, for it appears ye missed the part on how to do it even under those circumstances and also the part of "if ye're unsure, DON'T DO IT". They are sharp razorblades after all.

    Double Lift Problem

    It really depends on the double ye try to acomplish. If it is, as VT suggested, the Strike DL, I have little to say; but, for a break DL, I would say a SOFT touch to the cards whilst sliding them, and try and feel each one go on the pad of yer 2nd and 3rd fingertips; thenget the 4th finger...

    Thoughts on Card Magic

    I assume, because of the quoted above, that ye like coin magic. Correct? Then why learn palms and vanishes when one can simply get a shell and a flipper coin, both shimmed and add a Raven, Bat,...? Disclaimer: I am merely taking the argument ye supply; I do not think this way. Yes, why add...

    Aaron Fisher 1-on-1's?

    Such good advice in them, pity to see them gone. Especially the 101 series. Nonetheless, he must have good reasons.

    ACR - Open For Voting

    Well RD, ye know me thoughts on it. Justin, I'd basically comment on the fidgeting at 1:18. As a spectator, it looks "meh...". Well done both, though! Much better than I, at least.

    Complexity/Quantity

    I was wondering, after listening yet again the words of The Professor regarding simplifying the amount of moves a sleight needs until if ye took but one more away, it would crumble. I was wondering, though, if this applied to the same sleight (example: double turnover reduced into double lift...

    As I said I studied and at the same time worked in culinary arts, but it was merely a year of it (I still cook, yet not profesionally). At the moment I study Comunication Sciences in the Facultad de Ciencias Políticas y Sociales of the UNAM (Ciudad Universitaria). I was and am a fan of...

    No harm's done. Been there meself at times. Quick question: ye're mexican if I am not mistaken? I ask because of yer accent in the Classic Pass video ye have (FANTASTIC tips, might I add). I am from Mexico City, thus the curiosity.

    Is Cardistry just "Showing Off"?

    Depends, according to the source; but ye mention "oficially" as if whichever source ye choose is the non plus ultra. I reffereed what Hesiod (8th century BCE poet, lived at the same time as Homer) notes about the muses in his Theogony. For instance: "the Muses of Olympus, daughters of Zeus who...
