Hello, I'm Sam and I was particularly attracted to this site / forum by the reviews and hints and tips section, as in the past i've had very mix feelings regarding newly purchased techniques / tricks and would appreciate some good guidance. I originally got into magic, from the age of 13/14 after seeing some of David Blaine's early street magic on sky and Lance Burton dove shows / card manipulation techniques. Despite taking a break from around 15-17 because of my studies, I've got back into magic and am enjoying learning more sophisticated card sleights, as well as peforming with some of my favourite tricks - Coin Unique, Ultimate 3 card Monte, Scotch and Soda, Deep Astonishment. I'm also enjoying reading Banachek's / Burlingame's book on Muscle reading.
Hope I can do some good service by reviewing etc, but most of the tricks i possess already have several ^^

Thanks, Sam

Welcome to TM! If you're in to gimmicks and gaffs and all that and want something different there's a sticky thread around which points out some good books. And if you're in to Muscle Reading and mentalism then Corinda's Thirteen Steps to Mentalism would probably be a good resource for you .

Ahoy and Welcome~!
