But I'd like to learn a couple of basic card tricks. Could someone please point me in the direction of good Theory 11 place to start?

Thanks in advance!

And more! Go to the main Theory11.com page and scroll down to where it says New to Magic and click Get started. The color change looks like the first thing there, but there is more.

This is a great recommendation!

Also for the casual magician lately I have been reccomending this video a lot. Tons of great magic is on here. It's a great foundational video with some solid Magic just about anybody will enjoy.

If you're less interested in becoming a magician and more interested in just learning a few tricks it's a great place to start.
