    I accidentally overstocked.

    You used your Honor Roll money to buy 98 decks of cards?! I'm going to take a shot in the dark and say that you didn't study a business degree?

    Mentalism with a Deck ...

    Is that right? How do you explain Craig Browning's innumerably detailed, time-consuming thoughts? How about Richard Osterlind's thousands of posts on the Cafe? Bob Cassidy's? Methinks one should look at the quality of the information within the posts - not how often someone posts. At the end...

    Mentalism with a Deck ...

    You're an idiot. He addresses this and other problems, several times, and in greater depth than anyone here, in his blog. Go read. He also happens to be right. You obviously have some grudge from being insulted at one point or another, and granted, Steerpike is abrasive at the best of times...

    Thanks - I'll go have a look now. :)

    Live Performance Video!

    In regards to what reverhart said, the first I noticed was that you spent more time looking at your cards than you did at the audience. You were performing"at" them. Which you shouldn't need to do because quite frankly, I like your sense of humour, I liked the intro and I even like how the...

    Peter Eggink's Cased - and why I think it's rubbish

    Well well, looks like we've got some real discussion going now. Alright, let's take a crack at this. Eddie: To be honest, I don't really care what yours or anyone's opinion is of me or my mentality. However, I think it's a bit harsh to extrapolate intent based on a sentence. Quite frankly, I...

    Help with Choosing a Good Control to Learn

    Thanks for the compliment, sabor! I feel like I should add to my first post, which others have agreed with. I wouldn't touch, for example, the Miller Cascade Control because I perform as a mentalist, and therefore I make sure to eliminate fancy card movements from my performances. That's one...

    What Kind of Bend?

    I DID try the freezer once (remember to put it in a freezer bag, incidentally), and it honestly didn't work so well, but maybe I just did it wrong. I've heard it working for some people, though.

    What do you think?

    Even if you're successful, if you don't feel creative or otherwise up to it, chances are it will only be temporary... That said, I should have mentioned before, congratulations on your debut! I would only add that it would only be worth re-considering if a major opportunity came of it. Break a...

    Peter Eggink's Cased - and why I think it's rubbish

    Haha - I don't even know my password to the E forums, it's been so long, and I can't be bothered... But pretty much I'd just get banned and the thread deleted, so... Deaf ears :) Justin - that's actually a good point, I will admit that I could see it being used for that purpose. That said, I'm...

    What Kind of Bend?

    Uhh... No, I don't think so... The deck shouldn't really be bent at all, ideally. Usually, a deck will bend ("warp") if it's been in the sun too long in general or simply has been used too much. It helps manipulation if your cards are clean, crisp and straight. The problem with warps is that...

    Steer's got some valid points, blindside. I stick with my original opinion...

    How does this work?

    So's this post... The last one was in 2010.

    What Kind of Bend?

    I like a 90 degree one personally. It looks more impressive when I manage to actually manipulate it. I'm sorry, what? I have no idea what you just asked...

    Peter Eggink's Cased - and why I think it's rubbish

    So if y'all are on Ellusionist's mailing list, you should have gotten an email about a new product they're putting out by Peter Eggink called "Cased" - basically a deck of cards melts up through the card box to re-case itself. I happened to be on the computer when it arrived, so I took a quick...

    Combining Mentalism and Sleight Of Hand...

    Steer, whilst I can't confirm the context or the source of the quote, I do recall reading something along those lines, and it sounds vaguely familiar. From my memory of that passage, I believe the context was Derren talking about giving mind-reading a visual process - letting the audience see...

    What do you think?

    I'm going to approach this question in a slightly different (a little bit more philosophical) way... I know some people have chosen a different path to me, but this is my opinion. Mentalism is one part of my life. It's a decent part of my life. It's not the biggest, by far, maybe 4th or 5th down...
