(non russian) Roulette

Postby Relish » Feb 17th, '12, 18:24



I'm looking to write a card routine loosely based on a roulette wheel.

I remember from somewhere that theres a really old forcing technique using cards in a circle, but im not sure where i would find more information about it.

Does anyone know if theres anything of this type in

Fulves?
Mark Wilson's?
Card College?

or anywhere else - just so i can get a basic understanding of the principles. Im not even sure what the correct phrase would be to search for so i could buy something that would contain it.

thanks

:D

The old 'Clock Trick' used a circle of cards, I can't remember the book it was in, you'll probably find it in a few beginners books. You could yahoo search the name and something might come up.

Edit: I found a link to a tutorial but it would probably be classed as exposure so it's best I don't post it.

You will find a similar trick called 'Time Will Tell' on page 131 of 'The Card Magic of Nick Trost'. Though the card is not forced, it's a revealment.
