Seige, just a point of curiosity:

When performing Card Warp, do you do the prep work before you approach? I've always been a bit nervous about prepping under their noses, so I tend to do it first and toss it in the deck. Just wondering which method you used.

Good question ;)

Personally, I prefer to start with totally normal cards.

The 'prep' work can be done really easily right under the speccy's nose, where a 'do as I do' preparation can throw the spectator off the scent for the crucial unseen prep.

If I'm not being clear, please PM me, as I'm trying not to give too much away ;)

Would http://www.talkmagic.co.uk/ftopic8287.php&highlight= do? They really are ordinary matches, no strings, magnets or any other gimmick.

Works with cocktail sticks (ideal for parties), toothpicks, etc... even pencils and biros! Does it get any more borrowed than that?

well that needs a thread of some sort. yeah, ACR should be above #1 in that list.

quick question where did you learn slow motion coins and simpley divine?


Simply Divine is on 22 blows to the head and slow motion coins two is on anytime anywhere

I am master of misdirection, look over there.

We are not falling out young Welshy, we are debating, I think farlsy is an idiot he thinks I am one. We are just talking about who is the bigger idiot.
