    Not As Easy As It Looks: but less difficult for me

    Ever try balancing a fanned deck of playing cards on the tip of one finger? No? I did...and it's not as easy as it looks. (outtakes included!) Not As Easy As It Looks (but less difficult for me than for you because I'm awesome)

    Trick Idea for Fontaine Playing Cards

    I just used this trick as I was table hopping around at a packed sports bar and grill, it's the only effect I used the entire evening and I'm sitting next to a stack of $20's! Thanks for the permission, it worked like a dream! I made like 215 bucks, one of my best takes in about 2 months...

    The Dreaded Click Deck

    You ever see those infomercials on vacuum-sealing food? You know....those ones you watch at 2:45 in the morning, naked and eating an entire box of Little Debbie swiss rolls? Not because you particularly like them, and you'd rather have some cosmic brownies with chocolate chip candy but because...

    Card controls

    Just watch some Richard Tuner stuff, practice for about 10 years, never be a fraction as good as him and don't worry about it. Regards, NG.

    I see it has been 12 hours or 720 minutes in other words 43200 seconds since you posted this. And yet you have had zero takers. I hope you're still not sitting there.....waiting. What? What about me? Are you wondering would 'I' like to come and hang out with you? I'm sorry Eric, maybe next...

    Editing to Protect the Secret

    And that's the epitome of why as magicians that we really should stick to the second rule of magic. Say it with me: NEVER repeat the same trick twice. I KNOW! I've been there, we've all been there. Doing a walk around and we find a small group of 4 or 5 people, one who happens to be a...

    What to add to my card repertoire?

    David Rangel teaches his slightly modified version of The Glide which basically turns it into a rather nifty force. You can never have enough forces. Regards, NG.

    Smoke Vs Regeneration

    Ask yourself which fits YOUR style. Which one represents YOUR vision of how you want YOUR magic to come across to your spectator(s). You, I, and anyone else could buy one of either product and although the method is exactly the same, the effect is going to come off differently. The effect...

    Editing to Protect the Secret

    You're performing magic not directing a film for Paramount Pictures, who wants to go into epileptic seizures trying to watch someone perform what amounts to glorified card/coin/mentalism tricks? I surely don't and neither does my 10 year old kid who is going to pick the bones off your creations...

    One hand fan?

    Sure, it's called "ventilateur mono-ruka" created by Skdrin Goldberg of Germany. It was first published in the 1913 issue of Road-side Magazine. I know you've probably never heard of Skdrin Goldberg, and that because he never made it famous besides a few small flourishes. Unfortunately before he...

    Know Every Card

    1st of all the handkerchief was in your hand and on the other trick you flipped over the top card making us think it was the bottom so you could sneak a peek knowing what the next card in line was and just placed it on top of the other and repeated that sequence over and over. You didn't fool...

    Design a Deck

    You guys are over complicating the process of obtaining your goal of designing your very own deck of playing cards/box/artwork. I can break it down for you in just a few different but equally important phases. Work for hours on end for years to become proficient in card magic and or cardistry...

    I think Nolan should have considered that possibility before the lecture. LMAO! He got close, so very close.... But just between me and you, notice how Nolan accused me of virtually the same thing they were also reprimanding me for doing to someone else? Makes them seem a little...

    A few Deceptions I filmed and posted today!!!

    Center Tear - It was easy for me to figure out, I know precisely your method and without totally exposing it I'll just say the Christmas wreath to your left was a nice touch. (wink wink) I'll stop their to save you the embarrassment. Blind 2.0 - I stopped watching after 30 seconds when I...

    Cardini Change

    Ah, you mean the "Pughe’s Pass". It was invented by George Pugh and was printed for the first time in the Kaufmann and Greenberg edition of Greater Magic. Several shifts/changes have been derived from there with names like Cardini, Ego, Coffin, Stealth Steal etc. They all employ similar...

    Identify this trick/flourish

    It's called 'Cast-a-Kitten' originally created and performed by Zyafom Indigo who was a famous street performer in San Fran around 2002 before he was carted away to the clink for assault and battery after punching out the clerk at Rita's Water Ice on the corner of 8th and Market after finding a...
