What will he teach?
Meant to Be This is an open-prediction effect in which a card is removed and placed with its back in full view. Someone then thinks of a card and the removed card is then shown to match the though-of card.
27 A card is fairly selected and lost in the pack. Someone in the audience is then instructed to pick a number that corresponds to a position in the pack. The cards are counted and the selection is found at that same number.
Pocketed Princess This is my variation on the Princess Card Trick. No duplicate or gimmicked cards are used in this version. In the end, the thought-of card ends up in the magician's pocket.
Duality One spectator finds another spectator's thought of card under impossible circumstances.
Relativity Change This is a color change I created back in 2003. I'll teach the change and various applications for it.
Mom's Advice Three silver dollars appear and disappear at the magician's fingertips.
Crimped Cup This is my Cups and Balls routine.
...and more!
