Hey all~!

Hi all,

I'm a 19 year old Thai Student studying undergrad. Chemistry at the University of Liverpool. I enjoy playing PC games (from FPSs to Strategy games) as well as watching Anime.
I've been on and off magic for a bit, but to be honest I'm still fairly new to this. The first book I've read was Dummy's guide to magic (just love the dummy series) which helped with some basic routines. So far, I've mainly just done some tricks to some of my friends, which is always a good thing. :lol: So anyhow I've recently begun to pick magic up again and hope I can keep it up as a great hobby!~

Magic Stuff/Preferences:
Before I used to mainly perform coin tricks, but lately I've discovered that I also enjoy performing card tricks. However, I worry a bit due to how gambling is illegal back in my country and the possession of random card decks is looked down upon in some ways (ironically Card Decks are sold in public too).

At the moment, I'm working on perfecting this effect, but I still haven't been able to do it yet. I've been able to do something similar with 4 cards, of which 2 are the same.
(Trick: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid ... 28174969&q)

Edit 1: Added in Anime/Gaming comment. and corrected some grammer.

Nope, I wish. But I'm in the process of trying to work it out.

I remember learning that trick from someone but I dont remember what the name of the trick is. I personally perform it with jokers at the end instead of kings, its more clean if spectators are really paying attention. (hope that dosent give away anything)
