Magic & Conjuring: page 159

A cased deck is placed on the table. You remove your wallet, and also place it on the table. Both are on the table, and they are there in FULL view before ANYTHING happens. You tell the spectators that you removed one card from the deck, and put it in your wallet. A spectator then makes a series of choices bringing her to one card. The spectator herself removes the deck from the case, and deals the cards one at a time to the table. There are only 51 cards. The thought of card is missing. You then open your wallet, and remove a card. It is the thought of card!

This is a "new" method for the...

From the introduction:

Another great trick by Ken. You can do it anytime, anyplace with any deck. You can perform it even if the deck is incomplete. It is a perfect impromptu trick. It has all the elements of a great trick: an entertaining patter, comedy and a surprising finish.

THE EFFECT

A pack is shuffled and a card is selected by a spectator, shown to a few other people, then returned. The magician shows the face card of the pack and asks whether it is the chosen card. This is denied. The performer tries to right the things.

He drops the pack face down on the table but the top card is face up. But once...

Eine tolle jedoch technisch anspruchsvolle Routine bestehend aus drei Teilen. Jeder Teil kann auch alleine vorgeführt werden.

Effekt:

Vier Damen werden auf überraschende Weise produziert. Sie verwandeln sich einzeln und sichtbar in die vier Asse. Diese werden unterschrieben und verschwinden aus den Spiel, um anschliessend aus vier verschiedenen Taschen des Vorführenden hervorgeholt zu werden.

Eine Idee von Ron Jaxon.

Ein geliehener und unterschriebener Geldschein wird um ein durchsichtiges Feuerzeug gewickelt und mit einem Gummiband fixiert. Das Feuerzeug wird in die Hand gelegt, welche geschlossen wird. Wird die Hand wieder geöffnet, ist der Geldschein verschwunden und die Zuschauer sehen nur noch das durchsichtige Feuerzeug mit dem Gummiband!

"I really like how you put different principles all together and the expanded 10/20 principle is overlooked in my opinion. I like that there is no apparent move and it looks fair." - Raphaël Czaja

This is a numerological revelation of a selected card. It's really off-beat and ... I think you'll love it, and definitely use it!

You tell two spectators that one of them will select a card randomly from the deck, and the other will find out the name of the selected card using numerology. You ask one of them to turn his back while the other chooses a card.

The first spectator now selects a card...

Effect:

You remove 10 cards from the deck and play a Poker game with your spectator. Here the magician deals cards and allows a spectator to freely choose the face down cards that they wish to build their hand from. During the last deal, the spectator gets to look at his existing hand and choose from the remaining cards to build the best hand. Alas, the magician wins even though the spectator did all of the choosing. The magician will always get a royal flash.

• perform it with any deck of playing cards
• without difficult sleight of hand
• use only ten normal playing cards
• force the card...

THIS NEW METHOD INVOLVES NO SWITCHING OF THE HEADLINE PREDICTION SLIP. There is only one headline prediction slip and it is signed by the VIP! Best of all, no gimmicks are used.

Ein einfacher, kleiner Mentaleffekt zum "Immer-dabei-haben". Verblüffend und ein kleines Bisschen anders:

Sie zeigen dem Publikum einen Umschlag mit einer Vorhersage, die ein Zuschauer an sich nimmt. Nun darf ein weiterer Zuschauer sich aus einem Päckchen mit Karten eine Karte aussuchen. Der Witz dabei: Alle Karten sind gleich, jede Karte ist z.B. eine Herz 8! Wenn der erste Zuschauer die Vorhersage aus dem Umschlag nimmt, stimmt diese mit der gewählten Karte überein, es ist ebenfalls eine Herz 8.

Der Effekt kommt aber erst, nachdem sich das Gelächter der Zuschauer gelegt hat. Sie...

One of the first effects by Stefan Olschewski that were released to the magic market – finally available for instant download.

An easy, small mental effect to take with you wherever you go. Entertaining and just a little bit different.

You show an envelope to the audience containing one single card as your prediction. A spectator is asked to keep the envelope. A second spectator chooses one card from a packet of ten. The funny thing is: all card faces are all the same, showing, for example, the 8 of Hearts. When the envelope is opened, the card inside also is the 8 of Hearts, of course. ...

"Cameron's Rehab is great… it does take into consideration the angle issues with most restorations. He has cleverly made these adjustments without sacrificing the effect and artistry. It is as bold as it is beautiful and I highly recommend it to those who may have not considered the torn card premise. Some of the sequences genuinely fooled me and where I would think 'are yes but you can't show that bit cleanly', but then he does which is great." - Marc Spelmann

"Really interesting combination of principles in there. I especially liked Eight Envelopes, Asymmetric Oil & Water, Yet 2 and Coin and Card ESP. The Plaid Eared Rabbit contains a very clever use of an old Tenyo prop." - Raphaël Czaja

Appreciation: Jozsef thanks those who have helped him.

Amazing Prediction: You table a prediction deck. A lady randomly (and fairly) chooses two cards from another deck. The two cards generate a card and a two-digit number. You hand her the prediction deck, and she deals down to her randomly generated number. All the cards dealt are face down except...

"I'm not an ordinary magician: I LOVE card tricks with two decks! I really dig the apparent fairness of the trick. The spectator is asked to do many fair choices and the outcome looks impossible. A worthwile variation on the ACAAN plot." - Raphaël Czaja

Any card is selected [say the King of Spades] and then buried into the deck by the spectator. Using a 2nd deck, a number is very fairly generated, again by the spectator [let's say 25]. You won't believe this, but... the 25th card now dealt to in the 1st deck is the King of Spades!
