Id definately recommend RRTCM. Even if you learn everything from it you will keep refering back to it as time goes by. It's a book every card magician should own

I think you should really give the book a try, its the best starting place in magic which teaches all the foundations of card magic, truly awesome. Well IMHO anyway :wink:

card college is a great book. it teaches false shuffle(it has pretty much all styles of shuffling to), top to bottom, bottom to top, false cuts, force pick, pretty much everything.
i havent read RRTCM but that seems to be the favorite so far lol

Gerry Griffin's "40 Ways to Force a Card" has some good techniques.

There's no swing cut controls in there, which is probably what you're looking for

iashraf just wants to learn diferent ways to control a card to the top, bottom etc, why would he be looking for a swing cut control? there are far more easier ways to get a card to the top or bottom, RRTCM shows them all!!!

RRCTM is not just for the beginer............. ARGhhhhhhh

(sorry for my outburst)

I know, I know.

It's just that Royal Road left me thirsty for more, and there was a lot of crafty stuff I'd seen people do and wanted to learn it, but it wasn't in there.

I 've just got Generation X by brian tudor and that has some very nice controls, if you watch the demo you'll see some of them

If you're thirsty for more I think I can recommend Card College. I had a peek in it the other day and I got marvelled of how many details are explained in it. RRTCM is definitely a very good start, and Card College seems like a book for already experienced users.

Just thought if you just wanted to be impressive with cards you should check out Showoff with Cards.. 5 stages to greatness
