    Card Trick - I'll Take The Stairs

    Good Day. Nice old school plot for today: The Elevator Card Trick. Inspired by the work of David Acer and Richard Sanders, though I believe the plot is originally Ed Marlo's (I have in no way verified this, but always a safe bet to say Marlo!). This handling was the result of about an hour...

    A Couple of Ideas

    Good Afternoon/morning/evening/day to you all So, currently unemployed and there is only so much job hunting one can do in a day before becoming depressed. So with that in mind, I filmed a couple of ideas I came up with last year but never shared. One is a fun packet trick (inspired by Nick...

    Boxing Match - a free idea for you all

    Hi All Here's something I've been using for a while using the 'new' Bicycle card box design. I don't teach it in this video, but anyone that has been in magic a while won't have any issue figuring out the method and I'm happy for you all to use it. A great layman trick! Cheers Rev

    My 2020 Tinkerings

    Yo fellow magic nerds! Haven't posted on here in a long time. The reasons are many-fold and I can't be bothered to go into it. However, my love of magic has really been rekindled over the last year thanks in part to attending the Session convention in January (my first convention in 5 years)...

    Magician vs The Phantom

    Hey fellow magic people! Long time no post. Today I managed to finally get round to filming something I had the initial idea for quite a while ago. This is basically my take on the 'Magician vs Gambler' plot, but dressed up as a tribute to Walter Iriving Scott. I had the idea pretty much...

    When card tricks go wrong.... :(

    Hi All The weather where I am is currently atrocious, so I figured I'd try out a new card trick. As you'll see, things didn't quite go to plan.... ;) Thanks for checking it out. Rev

    How to make a card trick entertaining...

    Just saw this on youtube and thought it worth sharing. As magicians it's easy to get hung up on how 'good' a trick is in terms of method, difficulty etc. Based on those criteria alone this trick is fairly low down in the pile, but watch the way he presents it and the reaction he gets. Rev

    Jason Ladanye At The Table Lecture

    I'm a massive fan of the 'online lecture' format which has really found it's feet in the last few years. I feel like it's a great way to get a 'sampler' of a magician's material for a reasonable price. However, this is the first one I have felt compelled to write a review of, so lets get into...

    Four Aces from a shuffled, regular deck...

    Hi everyone! It's been a while! Life happens and sometimes card tricks have to wait. However, today I managed to get some time to film something I recently started playing with again. And hey! You get to actually see my face for once! Just for those who are unfamiliar with this routine, the...

    What's the point?!

    Inspired by something I saw in another thread…. If you could really do magic, what would you do? Would you use you powers to rid the world of poverty? Would you become a superhero? Perhaps you’d go to the dark side and become a super villain? Or would you use it to make the two black jacks...

    Exposure or not?

    I think most of us would agree, exposing magic on YouTube is wrong. Especially other people's creations, which is why some of the big name YouTube magic 'teachers' (and I use the word loosely) have always been a no go for for me. However, there is one person on YouTube, who put's up tutorials...

    Your obsessions.

    Inspired by something I read in another thread, I though it might be interesting to find out what other peoples specific interests and ‘obsessions’ are. Now, I'm not looking for the names of specific effects here, just broad themes, ideas, plots, or principles your find yourself constantly...

    A display of skill...(?)

    Hi All Would just like to share the below routine. I used to do a similar routine for years that involved a gaffed deck, but have since switched to this impromptu version. Credit to Hofzinser and Harry Lorayne for the inspiration. Comments, complaints and anything else you want to say...

    Classic effects

    Hi All Just a couple more videos for your perusal! This time, handlings of two classic effects, namely 'Hofzinser's Ace Problem' and Roy Walton's 'Oil and Queens' Not My Problem This is pretty vanilla handling of the effect, but the one thing I've added is the use of John Carey's handling...

    A couple of card tricks

    Hi All! It’s been a while since i’ve posted anything (busy with accountancy exams…ugh), but I just thought I’d share a couple of routines I’ve been playing with. Apologies for the 'darkness' of the videos, but I only decided to film these at nearly midnight last night! Jackass This is a...

    Playing with a classic

    Hi All This is my handling of Roy Walton’s classic ‘Oil and Queens” effect. The original is a classic for a reason and is a beautifully constructed piece of magic. I’ve seen a lot of alternative handlings over the years but none have ever been quite as good as the original. The only one...

    B'Word - a free packet trick for my T11 buddies!

    Hi All Just a little something to say 'thanks' to all my friends on here. I've had some great discussions over the last few months and have received some great and very helpful feedback on my routines I have posted. Below is a PDF describing a variation on Max Maven's 'B'wave' packet brainwave...

    Who's up for a freebie...

    Thought this is something that might interest all of you who like a freebie. It's an online magazine called Top Hat that is 100% free and has no advertising or any commercial connections whatsoever. Everyone who contributes to it does so on a voluntary basis and Michael Jay, the editor...

    More Card Ideas

    Hi All! I have been stuck at home the last two days with my thirteen month old daughter whilst she recovers from a nasty virus. During one of her extended naps, I thought I might do something constructive and film a couple of routines. Of course, this means the dishes are now not done, so the...

    Royal Oil - A Creativity Challenge

    Hi Everyone...it's card trick time! About four years ago I read a great oil and water style trick in Karl Fulves 'Foolproof Card Tricks' that was so good it fooled even me the first few times I tried it! This got the mind cogs whirring and I set about trying to build a self-working oil and...
