Remember & ForgetGary Kurtz This is an effect Hofzinser created. You can read three versions of the original in Hofzinser's Card Conjuring. Three spectators choose two cards each and are asked to remember them both. Then they are asked to forget one of their cards. All six cards are returned and lost in the deck. Then spectator by spectator the performer finds the card the spectator remembered, shows it and places it face down on the table. As a climax those three remembered cards turn into the cards the spectators tried to forget.

Longitudinal Fingertip StealGary Kurtz This is a wonderfully deceptive way to steal a card from the deck into a longitudinal palm - a Tenkai palm but with the card rotated by 90 degree - and then reproduce it super clean from the pants pocket or inside jacket pocket.
