The Luck of the Tarot

I think the presentation with tarot cards & coins is very sound and very good. You will need 4 coins that are easy to obtain (they are not gimmicked). There are two basic card "moves", if you can call them that, that are done with the tarot cards. TC Tahoe does teach them to you if you're not familiar with them.
I do a one-hour mentalism set using tarot cards & the pendulum - I don't see how I can add this to my current set, but I can see me doing this one-on-one for a spectator using an "entertainment style of reading approach". I don't see myself trying to answer big questions like "Should I quit my job and follow my bliss?" or "Should I start a Business?" because you're going to end with a surprise magical moment at the end of the presentation. The reading with this presentation should be lighthearted or even fun.
TC gives uses other than tarot cards if you'd rather go that route.
For getting only one effect on the PDF I think the price should be in the $10 range, just MHO. I bought this because of Richard Webster's recommendation. Four out of Five Stars.

Bob Farmer sort of turned me onto the Angels & Demons deck which I have been doing John Bannon's Mundo which is a short version of OOTW with lots of success. I've just read though this e-book today and I must say that I am totally impressed. I originally bought the e-book because of Psychometrick.
But there are other effects in this e-book that caught my eye too, like Spectator Cuts to The Angels and the follow up to that Angels Up.
Let me say, I haven't yet performed any of the effects in the e-book, but I plan to.
You get a lot here for your money.
