MASTER EFFECT No. 4. The actual answering of spectators' written and folded questions. The spectators write their question on cards, then fold and place their initials on the outside. The mentalist takes the folded cards from a punch bowl or other visible container in plain sight, and answers each folded card, one after the other.

Yes, this reputation-building routine is the answer to any mentalist's prayers. Each and every step has been carefully conceived, tested and time-proven. No suspicious moves. Everything appears...

Penciltration

An interesting idea with a pencil, coin and playing cards. Show spectator all three random objects. Put a coin in a folded card and visually stab the pencil through the coin. Rub with the fingers and the hole in the coin will heal itself ... and now the best part ... after the effect you can give the spectator all the props to check. No threads. Coin can be borrowed. Normal pencil. Any playing cards. Just a coin, pencil...

This new method of card shooting can be used to allow one card or multiple cards to be shot out of the deck with high speed and accuracy. The card even appears to be shot from the centre of the deck and can be shot in an arc in the air, be caught in the deck after shooting and many more applications, I’m sure, will be discovered by some of you.

In addition to the ebook you will get a video explanation of the shotgun move. The video is in wmv format.

I, myself, have used the Tossed Out Deck effect to open many stand-up performances, and feel it is genuinely one of the best opening routines for a performance. It packs a punch, is self-contained, and establishes quickly the performer’s ability to read minds. Yet despite all the greatness of the Tossed Out Deck, after developing several versions utilizing the core principle, most notably my effect “Touching On Hoy,” first published in the Coral Fang and further...

There is no palming, no extra props, no sleights whatsoever and Mirabill is totally impromptu and can be done with any borrowed deck at any time. The entire effect takes place in your guest's hands and has been streamlined so it plays more quickly and with even more punch than the original!

In addition The Twist is taught, pitting two guests against one another in a unique way that drastically changes the appearance of the game while maintaining all of the advantages of Mirabill. Last but not least, an additional ebook, The Mirabill Supplement is included....

The primary reason this book is interesting for magicians is that Richardson describes several encounters with gambling. They are detailed and well-described. In particular, he describes a Three Card Monte performance. For those who would like to perform this con game authentically, this is a very good resource. (All gambling sections are highlighted in yellow and bracketed in double-square brackets so that they can be easily found.)

The psychological Card at Any Number that makes you a master of chaos.

"Red Chaos fooled me every single time." - Markobi

"What I love in Red Chaos is that the spectator believes everything is free, everything is chaos... and yet, at the end, there is only astonishment." - Dani DaOrtiz

Imagine this ... A spectator freely chooses a card that is lost in a shuffled deck. They name random numbers. They decide if the cards are taken from the top, the middle, or the bottom. Everything is in their hands. The chaos seems total. And yet ... at the end, their card appears exactly at the number...

"Flat Pack packs quite a punch!" - Stephen Tucker

"Flat Pack is cool as Ice. Love it!" - Tony Chris

Inspired by David Regal's "Sudden Deck" and Stephen Tucker's "Tardis Deck".

You display an unfolded card box, and clearly show it inside and out. You then proceed to fold it up, snap your fingers and slide a full deck of cards out of the box! It's that simple. It's that effective.

Flat Pack is great for close-up as well as stand-up work. It's super easy to make, and the angles are great.

1st edition 2014, length 20 min.

Section Two: Various Other Items

These are effects and/or plot-lines that don't flow from one to another, but instead are various effects and/or plot-lines that pack a punch all by themselves.

This starts with "BLOT", a routine where you get credit for knowing a person's 4 digit PIN number, even though you only reveal one of the numbers. This is included as a thank-you bonus for people who buy "A Nite Of Dumb Poker". In the right hands, you will be creating a...

This is a two phase mentalism/card magic effect, involving a couple transpositions; both begin in the mind, then manifest into the physical. It's a fun and fairly simple routine that packs a punch and will have your participants wondering.

The first phase is an in-the-hands transposition of two spectator signed cards, and the second phase is a mental transposition of thought and a physical transformation of material.
