My name is Boyet Vargas from the Philippines. I am an aspiring Mentalist and Magician. I have been studying and doing Magic and Mentalism as long as I can remember.
My passion in Magic and Mentalism and my love for problem solving enables me to create new effects.

The mentalist hands out a billet containing different objects. The participant then makes a series of choices and moves between objects while the mentalist eliminates different objects along the way with their help. In the end, the participant ends up with an object that matches what the mentalist has written before the start of the routine.
One of the classic forms of mind-reading is the center tear. With a center tear, you can get the secret information that a participant has written. Almost all of the center tears require a pre-folded billet which the participant needs to re-fold the same way after they write down the secret information. The Butterfly Center Tear (BCT) is my solution to a no pre-fold center tear. With BCT, you can now hand a flat billet to the participant and still be able to perform the center tear to peek the secret information. You can also use this method as your backup center tear in case the participant...

Person of Interest is an upgrade to the original effect "Mental Assassin." This is a pocket mentalism effect that fits inside your wallet that can be performed anytime, anywhere. The participant thinks of a word and a person associated with the chosen word and the mentalist is able to identify both every time.
The method used in this effect is based on one of my newly developed principle for identifying chosen words or objects without the obvious interrogation.
