    Gambling/Card Hustling

    Hey, I have looked through a ton of gambling material. Simon Lovell's book "how to cheat at everything" is great. Also, you can watch Brian Brushwood's Scam School on the ole internet. Just google it and you can learn tons of bar bets, puzzles, and scams. This will get you into the mindset of...

    Off Topic: June 4th Events of China

    Sorry to be the butt of the page but you realize that American History books cover up our own acts of violence and oppression as well? We color in the picture of Christopher Columbus but don't give two cents about the fact that he raped, pillaged, enslaved, and basically committed ethnic...

    Totally Out of Control DVD - what happened?

    In case you guys didn't know but Chris Kenner is an old fart now and has trouble palming cards and coins. I heard he hired in some hand model for all the close up shots to make it look like he's the one doing magic. Cheers Matt

    Out of Order - Cameron Francis :: Review

    The people in Magic Magazine (or it might of been linking ring) didn't like this and thought it was a waste. I like Cameron Francis' the omega mutation dvds a lot.

    Sankey's Spring Sale

    I haven't got his ebook either. I even signed up on another email account! Regardless, the sale this time around is good!

    Sankey's Spring Sale

    Yeah there are some good deals on there. I plan to pick up his hypervisual and ambitious card dvds on one of the sale days whenever there is a "deal of the day" that i like.

    True Review

    The Big Tiny is a great effect. You can actually do it four times per deck and in fact I recommend doing the deck switch in the open because all the chicken scratch looking markings build interest in the effect. I love twilight angles. Just don't perform it for magicians... I recommend...

    Is True Astonishments worth it?

    This dvd series is pointless if you do not have intermediate magic skills, most people think that they already have them... there are some "no brainers" but the good stuff will take practice, setting up props, making props, angle work, and what not... Based on the fact that you don't know who...

    Is True Astonishments worth it?

    I have the set. It sucks. Don't buy it. I think Magic Makers is putting out a new dvd, you should probably get it first.

    New Pen Thru Bill by Cameron Francis

    I think in "dough" the post it note adds validity to the illusion. I've tried misleading misled before and just got bored reactions, while dough got pretty good reactions... Just my thoughts. I like Cameron a lot and he has some great material out there though!

    New Pen Thru Bill by Cameron Francis

    I just think this looks like Alan's version. Dough is the best pen through bill effect that i've seen. A lot these ungimmicked versions just look to phoney on the penetration side and the noise side.

    Magicians at OSU?

    Email Justin Miller or PM here on the forums. He lives in Columbus I believe. There's gotta be an IBM ring in columbus or near there. Call this place and ask: http://www.beamazingmagicshop.com/ That should help you out. Join the IBM it's great and will connect you to many people!

    Magicians at OSU?

    You realize you live in a city that has TONS of magic? Go to an IBM meeting or something.

    Sources to learn how to cheat at poker?

    Simon Lovell's Dvd on gambling cheats is really good. So is fast company. Those two are good sources. Don't listen to anything else anybody says, pick from one of those two.

    Totally Out of Control - Better left unreplicated?

    From what I've heard and I'm open to being false, a successful magic release will move around 5,000 units. Give or take that might be more or less. But think about it, that's 5,000 people (plus the few that share and pirate) and then you have the people who throw it up on the net to download...

    Cheek to Cheek with Oz Pearlman

    The gimmick card is obvious. Just think about it.

    Totally Out of Control - Better left unreplicated?

    Majority of lay people have never seen magic tricks. At least the ones I've met while performing my street act during the summer mostly haven't seen magic. In fact, sometimes I'll introduce something like the 2CM as a trick that David Blaine does. It allows them to experience something that...

    Cheek to Cheek with Oz Pearlman

    Oz is making the dvds to market these tricks in MAGIC SHOPS. Hence on the stealth pen cover it says "asks for a demo..." Simon Lovell has a dvd out that teaches this effect called "triumph" i believe... It's a good dvd and cost $10.

    Winter Carnival of Magic Convention - Pigeon Forge, TN

    Dan-Cool that you've performed here. Terry is an amazing performer. He is extremly humble, nice, and real. He's an honorary member of our Ring (though he can't make meetings for some reason...heheheh...performing everyday!?) How was fukai? I haven't really heard much about him before. I just...

    Religious Themed Act

    I'm sure you could find some use for a reincarnation type theme. Torn and restored effects/transportations. David Williamsons Torn and restored transpo with face cards telling a story of some form of reincarnation. Just tell a story. I think Eugene Burger is also a good source to start at if...
