The next three chapters detail the three routines that were the backbone of my Houdini Lounge set.

The Trick that Lance Burton Showed Me demonstrates what happens when you live with a trick for 15 years. This is my handling and presentation for Dan Garrett’s Four Card Reiteration. I discussed this trick on one of the Very Very Close videos, but there is new work in this ebook.

This ebook is all about reversing a card and includes five original ideas.

• Minority: A chosen card is pushed flush in the center of the deck, and instantly reverses itself.
• Flip Side: The deck is spread to show that it is completely normal, and then almost instantly a card reverses itself, the previously chosen card.
• Don't Blink: A ridiculously visual reversal. An out-jogged card reverses itself with a flick of the wrist.
• Wrong Turn: A card is lost, and the wrong one is found. The magician states that something must have been preventing the card from coming to the top, and when the deck...

The Double Blind Drawing Duplication...

Two truly impossible drawing duplications for the price of one.

The performer gives a stack of blank business cards (about 20) and a bunch of pencils to a spectator and asks her to distribute them to whoever she wants. The random people who receive a card are asked to draw a picture of something on the card and to hold it face down. The first spectator now collects all of the cards and takes care to keep them face down at all times. She returns to the performance area with the 20 or so drawings and keeps hold of them. The performer asks her to...

Tony Slydini used this move for his famous helicopter card trick. A card is stolen into a Tenkai palm while it is inserted into a fan.

runtime: 56s

This is an idea by John Cornelius where a card is pushed into a fan and during closing the fan the card is stolen into a Tenkai palm.

runtime: 1min 17s

A move developed by Ed Marlo where you steal the top card while squaring up a deck that is resting on the table. This can also be used as a color change if the deck is face up on the table. And Allan also let's you in on Eddies 'Nickle Color Change' where a nickle is placed on the face up deck. Nevertheless the card changes instantly leaving the nickle on the deck. This one is guaranteed to fool magicians.

runtime: 2min 6s

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

The double deal is taking the top and bottom card at the same time. The open double deal is an idea by Marlo which eliminates the card alignment issue.

runtime: 54s

The double deal is to secretly deal the bottom card together with the top card. Here Allan combines the dealing action with turning the card(s) face up on the deck revealing the bottom card.

runtime: 1min 15s

You will learn how to quickly check if a card is missing from your deck, or if a certain card is exactly at the 26th position from the top.

runtime: 1min 38s

The roles are reversed. The performer selects a card and the spectator finds the card by selecting a number, dealing to the number and indeed finding the selected card there.

You will need to know the Pip Bottom Deal to perform this effect.

runtime: 3min 28s

This is an effect by Francis Carlyle. It is an unusual revelation of a peeked at card. The Ace of Spades, also known among gamblers as 'the bullet', is used to shoot out the spectator's card.

runtime: 2min 22s

Deck is shuffled and spectator cuts to a card. Performer removes one pip at a time from the card until it is entirely blank and as a final climax the card vanishes completely.

runtime: 3min 11s

A card is selected and returned to the deck. The performer cuts to a random position to show an indicator card. The value of the indicator card is used to count to another card which the performer thinks is the chosen card. However, the indicator card was already the spectator chosen card. So it appears as the performer messed up. Nevertheless, everything straightens out magically and the card counted to is the spectator card and the card counted off are the aces.

runtime: 3min 31s...

The four kings are shown and pronounced to be cannibals. A random card is pushed between the four kings and vanishes. The kings have eaten the card. This happens a few more times until the kings ate too much and change to the four Eights.

runtime: 9min 22s

This is the piece that Kenton Knepper called "Brilliant". Alain Nu and Luke Jermay both gave this the thumbs up. Craig Browning flipped over it. But what exactly is it?

This is not a magic trick. This is real mind control. Yes, seriously.

First Impression(s) was written for anyone that uses business cards to promote their magic or mentalism business. First Impression(s) will teach you a special way of designing your card that will influence others to show it to every one they know. This is not a "Magic trick" as you would typically think of it.

This is the business card layout, powerful cold/warm reading script, and influence...
