    Tivo (some random Number)

    i know, it's not really to be offensive, most people don't catch things like that. I just have some people who watch magic quite a bit and they "look" for things like that.

    Multiple Card Force

    have each person select a card or one person four. Separately, using a different force. Cull Force, Topsy Turvy Force, Hindu Force, and a Riffle. Bam.

    Thoughts?

    you're right! Lets just assume everyone who's watching has never expirenced card magic.

    Tivo (some random Number)

    there is an inaccuracy in the trick that causes them to know you aren't placing the card in the center since you place Joker "Card" Joker on top of the deck and then flip over to show "card" as one card. So then where did the joker that is suppose to be ontop go?

    I do effect just like this, but with the jokers. It's really one of my favourite effects to preform.

    Learning Magic Through Books

    It really depends what you mean by "Learning Magic". The books above are great but for theory I would advise "Strong Magic" by Darwin Ortiz.

    The Clipshift - Chad Nelson

    I love this move. I really like the Dribble control included on the DvD.

    Portal Re-filmed

    Why would you post average? Would you want to go watch a guy that has a sign out front saying : "Come inside to see 'average magic' " ? No you wouldn't, well at least I wouldn't. Granted the laymen may not catch your tricks, but if they see the smallest mess up they are no longer amazed...

    ha! Why would we make patter that is such an Oldie thing, we should be monotone and wait for the next Dvd that comes with patter.

    andthensome double lifts

    Oh, I don't know if i was clear in my post, I have a tendency to do that when I "write". The trick went off with out a hitch, but the person was more impressed with the throw than the trick itself. The rest of your post I agree with.

    Travel

    I would have to agree with prae here, I see this more as moving the card around. Spectators will like it. Make it have a transpo or something unexplained (you have been creative thus far so you should have little trouble) and they will love it. I would compare this to doing Biddle without...

    andthensome double lifts

    i advise you reading "strong magic" by darwin ortiz. Ortiz's argument is simple. Try to make magic real for the audience. Doing a triple back flip diving board double doesn't add to the effect, it adds to the "Holy Crap, this guy is amazing with cards" effect. Here's an example: I was doing...

    Then why do it? I really like this trick and can be wonderful for laymen once it is done veryy well. For magicians... not so much, we are like uber heckers that know where you sleep. But this doesn't mean you shouldn't try to fool them.

    When does it become "your effect"?

    So it's like making a card come to the top using a Pass instead of a Double lift.

    "Why are you applying for med school? You can do this instead!"

    When does it become "your effect"?

    I wondered this today when I was doing a handling of a trick that's like "Dream Card" by Darwin Ortiz. Another Magician friend of mine walked up to me and said : "Cool! Where did you learn that?". I did not know how to answer. On one hand it looks like dream card to a layman. If you...

    What do you do?

    So what if they hit the nail on the head? In my expirence the person has been spouting random stuff the entire time that's way off. So the other laymen don't draw attention to him
