You will learn two basic card reversals by Fred Braue.

runtime: 2min 30s

Spectator touches any card. The card is outjogged. In a brush-off action, the outjogged card is switched with the bottom card in the deck.

runtime: 1min 3s

This is essentially a Heirophant Change but using a bottom deal instead of a second deal.

runtime: 59s

The bottom deal, one of the most versatile moves in card magic, can be used for a wonderfully deceptive force.

runtime: 1min 27s

The bottom deal can be used to position certain cards at certain locations during a counting procedure.

runtime: 48s

Use the same action as with the Push Off One-Handed Bottom Deal to produce the illusion of a changing card.

runtime: 37s

The bottom deal is one of the most practical moves to cheat at cards, as well as a great tool for the magician, which is not only useful for gambling demonstrations. (Also part of Move Mastery 3.)

runtime: 1min 5s

The bluff pass is a very nice way to get a selected card to second from top when it looks like that you are burrying the card in the center of the deck. Allan also tips a bluff Kelly replacement - something to fool your magic friends.

runtime: 1min 42s

This is something Ed Marlo liked to do, a side steal with a bluff action.

runtime: 48s

A block transfer is to move one or several cards from one half of the deck to the other half, leaving everything else unchanged. The transfer can happen on the top or on the bottom. This is a riffle shuffle technique very useful for riffle stacking.

runtime: 4min 35s

Palm several cards from the center of the packet. (Also part of Move Mastery 1.)

runtime: 5min 41s

A color change of the bottom card of the deck. (Also part of Move Mastery 1.)
