Hi Guys,

Im just thinking about some mini routines I could put together with cards for some parties I attend. Im going through some of the tricks I already perform, but have got my hands on most of the Vernon books and now all of Paul Harris's Art of Astonishment books.... Also in my collection I have a couple of Marlos work and some Sankey too. Wow - theres a wealth of amazing stuff in my collection now... just trying to focus a little..

Im happy to include different close up. I enjoy coins and PH has some wonderful close up stuff too. But Ive been wondering about peoples ideas for some mini routines. Some of the following is examples that could work:

Bizzare Twist then Bizzare Vanish

A more complicated routine could be an ace production (I like visual ones like Hot shot Aces)
The maybe into vernons Twisting the Aces, and perhaps finishing with the Invisible Palm?

The only problem with the second it would need a table. Im trying to keep it to effects I can do standing and in the hands...

Love to hear peoples ideas for some mini routines. And obviously point me in the right directions for some great effects with my now updated stash of Books.

Aces are great - they can segue into all sorts of fun things.

For example, produce the aces and do some stuff with them (Dr. Daley, Twisting the Aces...). Then have a card selected and returned. Do a sandwich with the aces. Then have another card selected and do a transposition ala Double Monte. Etc.

Palm out aces, have spec shuffle, produce aces, dr. daleys last trick, then a nice collectors trick
