Easy to read M-ked Deck.

Postby DanielJosephGriffin » Dec 4th, '13, 22:56



Hey guys,

I recently purchased Boris Wilds, which worked great for what I wanted. But I'm looking to enhance the classic trick (I think It's called MindReach) where you tell a spectator "We'll spread the cards out, I want you to put your finger down on the five of clubs" (uses the st-p ahead and K-y Card methods).

I'm looking for a MD which is easy to read at a very quick glance whilst the cards are roughly spread out on a table. I don't think BWilds will be good for this, as the placement M-rk varies and is quite small and I havn't got the BEST eyesight, but I suppose could work if needed be.

I've seen the Ultimate MD being spoken about a LOT, also seen it in action and the M-rking method..But I can't seem to find anywhere that has them in stock, I think someone said they've gone out of production?

Is there anything similar you guys could suggest?

It's probably not what you want to hear, but the UMD is/was probably the most suitable commercially-available deck. It might be best to m**k your own. There is a good book on m**ked decks, the name of which escapes me. Anyone?

The Fournier deck is pretty good but is not of course in Bike backs

Johnny, you wouldn't be able to read these while spread.

I'm assuming the cards are ribbon spread...
