This may not be new to some of you guys but to the new owners of IDs. Just remember which way your deck is set (odd and even) when a card is named say an odd card, uncase the deck with the even side toward them and just spread the cards until you see the card named by the spec. and separate the cards so the back shows,remove the card and set it face down on table. Next cut the deck at that point and complete the cut so the back of the other card is now covering the back of the deck and the back of the deck can be shown in a subtle manner to imply all is as it should be. Something else you can use instead of R+S spray is Krylon clear matte spray. A light dusting and ample time to dry. Works great. IDs are life savers if you need an out. I recommend this deck, its not complicated and if the card is near the top just give it a cut to the middle.

FOR EVERYONE HAVING TROUBLE WITH HANDLING THEIR DECK, when searching through the deck, squeeze the cards tightly, when you see the correct corresponding card, release pressure, then re-apply pressure to search the rest of the deck as "proof" that their card is the only upside down card, with a little practice, this is an excellent magic trick and well worth the money, i bought mine from [url]http://www.magictricks.co.uk/shopexd.asp?code=4391 i think this is well worth the 6.99 GBP and FREE shipping

I find, usually in such a situation, i would spread the cards in the middle, then work up. Thats usually stops the cards spreading too far.

All the best,
