From roger

Hmmmmm

Looks like you may be in for a rough ride here...

Number 1) This is in the wrong section
Number 2) What happened to good old fashioned introductions eh?
Number 3) T***r deck kind of gives the game away don't you think. Beware of exposure and how about calling it by it's trade name? Stripper or Wizard work well enough. We'll all know what you mean
Number 4) If you're fishing for secrets, you're in the wrong place matey. We don't do that here.

Now if you're not, cut the deck into two packets. Turn one 180 degrees laterally (that is, both remain face down, just one gets turned 180 degrees) and riffle them in together. If there's nothing there, you've been conned.
If there is something there, you'll know.

Now. How about that introduction eh?


And apologies if you're not like that at all and this seems a personal attack. It's not. It's just that we get a lot of people who meet all the criteria I just mentioned and they're not welcome here

sorry i came to wrong area but is just that i brought this deck for half a year now........and still couldnt figure out...what the instructions is saying about stripping cards......and all that. thanks anyway, i dont think i will ever get it..... you can delete it if is an offence...thanks for that though

if i post this question in miscellenious ....is that ok?

You want support and tips.

And an introduction so we know who you are and what you do etc.

Then use the search function and see that this question has been asked and answered before

[edit]A brief search for Stripper Deck yields this:

PM'd you. Once you can give me the details I asked about, I will let you know how to use them.

Mods, don't worry, not giving secrets away, asked for enough to let me know he does own them. If he does, I'll help by PM to keep it off the boards.

My Introduction:

My name is Roger.

I go to nursing home, so thinking of performing some simple magic to elders to entertain them. (just for fun and a laugh)

roger.

Just an update. Yes, he is genuine and by what he was telling me through PM's, he must have the deck.

PS, Roger, remember to look up about books etc, it will save £s.

Darrel, when you say 'books' did you recommend books like Royal Road, Expert at the Card Table, etc? Because if you didnt, i was just going to! Actually, i guess i kind of already have right there!

I suggested he did a search. That way he can make a choice from advice already given.

Although I want to learn card magic, I am concentrating on childrens stuff first. It means I am not the best person to tell him what to buy. I did know how to let hiom use this pack though!

I'll leave the rest to the experts.
