When the audience member stops the chosen card is revealed (for example the 7 of Diamonds). A small envelope is handed out to the audience member, it is opened and a small hand...

Dr. Bill's Billet Tear is top notch and as good as it gets. If it means anything from a guy who has been ripping paper up for most of his life, take my advice and get this!" - Richard Osterlind

Why dice?

Barry wanted a reading system that could be performed in the hands, sitting down or just walking around, that didn't require a table or a spread. That could be done inside or outside, regardless of the weather conditions. Something that didn't get soiled, torn, blown away or that water would ruin. So cards were out.

Dice fit this description and are easily available.

Long before tarot and runes, soothsayers used to cast bones,...

In 1930 during a court case in which Hanussen stood accused of professional misrepresentation and fraud, Erik declared the only way to break what was proving to be a judicial logjam, was for him to recreate his psychic experiments live in the court room. The following day he presented a routine which would dramatically change the remainder of his life, he...
