Mike Porstmann

(Born 16th March 1952 in Thurnau)

Mike is a German magician, inventor, author, publisher and dealer in Dachau. Since childhood he was interested in magic but it took almost 3 decades until he became the recognized magic and gambling expert he is today.

He was first introduced to card play and advantage card play through his father. When he moved to Munich in 1977 his magic interest blossomed. In particular he was helping Eckhard Boettcher and his Zauber-Butike. He also became friends with Punx and Alexander de Cova.

He opened Zauberservice München together with Ernst Werner Händl, later started magic&gambling, and together with Peps Zoller Casino Consulting.

Mike published around 200 magic effect descriptions which are distributed through the magic literature. In 2010 he decided to pull back from the magic scene to focus on another passion - oldtimer-rallies - where he participates with a 1958 Mercedes-Benz.

Anthony Brahams & Mike Porstmann
Karl Norman 40 Years at the Forks by Anthony Brahams & Mike Porstmann

This is an excellent cross-section of some of Karl Norman's best routines.

From the introduction:

During a very exclusive lecture for about one hundred magicians Karl demonstrated the impact and the value of his routines. That day he was nearly 75 years old and at about the same time, David Copperfield received standing ovations at his opening performance in the Deutsche Theater in München, only a few miles away from that place Karl received standing ovations for his commercial and entertaining close-up magic.

The Big Edge by Mike Porstmann

Mike gave this lecture already twice in the US with great success. He is one of the gambling and cheating-at-gambling authorities in Germany. I liked particularly his 10 card poker deal for the stage, an entertaining piece of card magic for a large audience.
