    Gambling: Keeping the full deck order.

    Speaking of tact, let’s take some time to address the rest of your responses. With regard to respect, I neither need it from you nor care about it. But, I’m man enough to admit when I’m wrong, as I did above. That shows that I respect you enough to reply on an open forum. Are you man enough to...

    Gambling: Keeping the full deck order.

    Unknown, Since I seem to have struck a nerve with you and (apparantly to a lessor degree) BninroC69), I should make some clarifying points. First of all, you were quite simply, wrong. That is your exact phrasing and that’s uttterly incorrect. BninroC69 then agrees with you and states...

    Gambling: Keeping the full deck order.

    Neither UnknownMagician93 nor BninroC69 have any idea what they're talking about. I have lunch about twice a month with a guy that may be one of the last great (active) poker hustlers in the country. A guy that continues to play in some very serious games all over the U.S. every month. He uses...

    t11.bulletin - WHAT TO READ with Jason England

    Mr. Fang (can I call you sabor?), No. I don't think either of those books would make the cut if I had to add two more, or even ten more. Don't get me wrong, they're both very interesting and I have and enjoy both books. Unfortunately, neither is of the caliber of the books that made my list...

    t11.bulletin - WHAT TO READ with Jason England

    Monerya, As I mentioned at the beginning of the video clip, the books represented are some of my favorite card magic books of the 20th century. The Paper Engine was released in 2002. Jason PS: I'm not sure it would have made the cut even if it was released in the late 1990s. I like the book...

    Alex, I have some magnetic dice, but they are antiques and not for sale. Understand, that magnetic dice don't have magnets inside them (at least, not the ones used by casino cheats). They are simple attracted to a magnet. This is usually accomplished by putting cobalt loads inside the dice. Jason

    What card are these?

    Danny, The Initial deck was produced sometime between 1912 and 1920, when the Initial brand was phased out. The brand was begun in 1907, but the Ace of Spades you have wasn't produced until 1912 (it's the second Ace of Spades for that brand), that's how we can be so accurate with the date...

    How not to ask for a favor...

    Bill, Please take your head out of your ass. I wasn't depressed over the "fact that he didn't watch my videos." I was upset over the sense of entitlement that his tone represented. All this kid had to do was say, "I can't afford your 1-on-1s" or "I don't have a credit card" and I would...

    How not to ask for a favor...

    Got an instant message from a member here recently. His name was Suhaas G. I get many similar questions from time to time, and I always try and answer them with the most appropriate level of information that I can. For instance, if you’re a rank beginner, you’re not going to be sent on some...

    S.W.E Shift

    Christopher, I've made dozens of mistakes regarding what I thought was in, or not in, Erdnase over the years. Glad you didn't take the "have you guys read this book" line too literally or harshly. That was just me bustin' you guys' chops. School's out for today. Jason

    S.W.E Shift

    Have you guys actually read this book? Perhaps you have a different version of The Expert at the Card Table than I, but there is absolutely nothing in the written description of the S.W.E. shift that mentions whether or not it was/is designed to be used at a table. In fact, since Erdnase is...

    theory11 - THE PINKY COUNT with Jason England : Now Available

    ChristopherT, It seems like we're headed that way. There are certain other 1-on-1's that JB and I have discussed filming before we get to that point however. Incidentally, this next bit isn't directed directly at you ChristopherT, but to anyone in general reading this thread. I...

    Origins of Card Mechanic

    It's a much older term than the mob-driven days of Las Vegas. The mob didn't move into town until the late 1940s and early 50s. The term mechanic dates at least until the late 30s, and probably a decade or more earlier. It appears to have originated with the "Card Detective" Mickey...

    Saturday Night Contest - Roundtable with Jason England

    I'd certainly never ask anyone to do that. Disagreeing with one another is fine, and is a great way to learn. I know I've certainly changed my mind a million times over the years by listening to what other folks had to say. As long as you're doing so because you know my experience level and...

    Saturday Night Contest - Roundtable with Jason England

    Z-magic, I don't mind the arguing, and I'm not incapable of being wrong. I should say, I don't mind as long as people clearly understand exactly what it is I'm claiming, and don't provide a counter-argument to something I never said in the first place. Most of what I've offered is simply an...

    Saturday Night Contest - Roundtable with Jason England

    Continued from previous post due to length. My initial instinct was to say that this is the stupidest thing I've ever heard in my life, but I've been sitting here thinking about it for several minutes and it's occurred to me that it isn't stupid, it's simply naive. In a perfect world, it would...

    Saturday Night Contest - Roundtable with Jason England

    Thanks for the straw man. I never said anything remotely this strong. I feel usernames enable childish behavior/comments, restrict your access to information from certain people that feel similarly to me about them, and do nothing to let people get to know you and associate your thoughts and...

    Saturday Night Contest - Roundtable with Jason England

    Web, I never used the word credibility, you did. But you're right, that's essentially what's at stake here. Credibility, like respect, is something you build over time. The point isn't whether you have any NOW or not, the point is that by remaining anonymous you limit your ability to earn...

    You know, it's funny...the whole time I was writing those posts trying to convince people why they should do this, for some reason it never occurred to me to use that word. But yeah, I guess when you get right down to it, that's all it is: professionalism. Thanks for pointing out the most...
