I found it amazing for the first time watching people doing this effect. I am about to buy the book to learn this effect. But firstly, i juz wanna know. Will we use a gimmicked card when performing this trick? or it juz need sleight?

Thx...

There are a million and 1 variations to this effect. Most do not use gimmicks.

The 'book' to learn the trick?

Which particular book?

by **Lady of Mystery** » Jan 29th, '07, 17:27

I know a few ways to do this, all of which don't use gimmicked cards

Start with http://www.talkmagic.co.uk/ftopic2892.php and you can get it from http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASI ... 67-3114035 as well as many other fine places

i prefer the trick which is using only four cards and being done on the table.
For example on this video which is done by jonathan kamm

Btw, i love kamm's passes... try to go to his website, look for his pass demo for those who has never seen

Nice routine. Unfortunately we can't tell you how a particular effect is done as it would be giving the secret away but, whilst you're here, why not pop over to the Introductions Area and tell us more about yourself and the kind of magic you like?

there's a 6 card version in mark wilsons book that works quite nicely with the right patter

by **fedry** » Jan 29th, '07, 17:57

yeah..i juz posted intro there. As wad i wrote, i prefer trick without using any gimmick. So, maybe i shud go find the book.

yeah... If everybody tell the secrets, so who is gonna buy the books. Absolutely agreed.

very nice, very simple

I personally use Derren Brown's version which is detailed on the Devil's Picturebook. Good luck anyway!

Larry jennings has a version in "the classic magic of Larry jennings" i think

by **lozey** » Jan 30th, '07, 00:07

I believe its also in his (Jennings) 'Up in Smoke' manuscript

I have used antony owens version on some tricks. Which i have to say does look very clean. However it does reqiure some set up and a lot of practice.

He's very proud of that, so he says. I like it too. I need to practice some of the fundamental artifices used before going for it.

Just out of interest, do you let your speks choose the cards? Spots, presumably.
