Magic Tricks

The star of the show is the deck switch. This includes a very practical standing switch that requires a jacket with an open front pocket (with a horizontal opening *greatly* preferred).

I don't wear this, so I'm slightly disappointed. It's advertised as being able to be performed surrounded. This is technically true, but doing so carries a little extra risk. Still, this switch is excellent. If you wear a jacket, use this.

I was greatly anticipating seeing how to load a card into a 'sealed' deck like in Shawn's Fool Us act. Sadly, this isn't covered.

The Oil and Water routine is pretty good. It does use counts in the final phase that make it (and most packet tricks) look slightly suspicious.

The Slop Shuffle routine does work on laymen. It's not my cup of tea though.
