Teach/tell other people/magicians their Tricks (like Copperfield... well, I don't like him... but that's another story :P)


Well... as longer as I think about it... Ellusionist tell other people how to perform the tricks ... oO Im confused (and confusing ;))


And what did that have to do with anything said above? :?

Just one tip. After you've finnished your cuts :wink: and suffles :wink: , show the top card to prove that the whole deck is indeed blue when you start out :wink: . Thouse who know how this is done should know what I mean.

Sorry about dragging an old thread up (the cheek of it - ive only been here 5 mins!)

There are a few things I'd like to say though.

Firstly, i like the idea of having the jokers at the front of the deck - adds an extra element of deception to the trick.

Secondly, in my opinion the trick was rushed a little. With a trick like this, accuracy of the card handling is much more effective than speed. By slowing down in certain places you can hold the suspension for a fraction longer producing a much more spectacular effect.

As someone mentioned before, stripping the cards out of the deck looks much sexier.

Also in my opinion I think it would look better if you placed rather than flung the box and cards down at the start, and placed them all neatly rather than a bit messily (but thats probably just personal preference)!

Overall, performed quite well though!
