    Beginner Cold Reading Ressource

    You are correct this is written by a skeptic to make people aware of the techniques used. He makes you aware of these by teaching you those techniques. I agree that he does take a leap of faith saying that you can just make stuff up in terms of terminology ect but in the few cases where i have...

    I want money from card magic?

    I think that a lot of the younger generation of magicians think that by becoming a working magician they can avoid the 9 to 5 type of work. I think that it comes as a big surprise to many that being a magician isn't just about learning tricks and practicing moves, that there is a whole '9 to 5'...

    I want money from card magic?

    I live in Dubai and have worked for a few of the big hotels out here. Don't expect that one they will come to you asking you to perform and secondly don't expect them to take you on just by going up and asking. It was through a long period of working where ever I could to get noticed by the...

    One Trick Decks

    It just my opinion that you don't need to burden yourself down with loads of trick decks, and gimmicks to feel prepared for a gig. With a normal deck of cards, a few coins, bit of rope,a sharpie and some IT i have enough material to last a whole gig, and without needing to repeat effects...

    One Trick Decks

    Apart from the invisible deck I don't use any tricks decks when I'm working, and saying that I use almost no gimmicks when working close up. This is for a few reasons, one pocket space. I like to have as little on me as possible, I don't like have my pockets full of bits and pieces that I...

    Cards for table work?

    In terms of books I wouldn't bother with Expert at the Card Table by Erdnase, especially if your just starting out. Expert Card technique is a much better book, covers everything in Erdnase, its better written so easier to learn, and the techniques have been updated to suit modern cards and...

    Books vs DVD's

    Expert Card Technique in my opinion is the best. I know how everyone goes on about Expert at the Card Table, but the techniques are out dated for modern card workers and modern card stocks (just have to look at technique for the bottom deal). In my opinion it was written by someone with very...
