why do you say that? :?


If you do magic at the poker table, then play poker and get a good hand and win, people will say hang on you cheated with your card skills. It could turn in to some nasty situations!

Doing a couple of muscle passes with chips at a poker table should get some interesting results. :P

I always found poker chips to be too big for my hands to muscle pass. I know it's possible, but my callouses are set in "half dollar" size... :?

Don't get a trick deck, get good with an ordinary deck first. Then if you have to get the Brainwave deck.

But if you get a Stripper deck, you can work on your regular effects at the same time while utilizing the Stripper's gimmick for your own purposes. It's a win-win situation.
