Default Magic!
Ok, not really magic but card manipulation! I have always been amazed by what can be done, so I have finally taken steps to at least understand what goes on....I am waiting for this book (along with GTA:SA)




The Royal Road to Card Magic: Amazon.co.uk: Jean Hugard, Frederick Braue: Books The Royal Road to Card Magic: Amazon.co.uk: Jean Hugard, Frederick Braue: Books

along with some cards:


Does anyone else dabble in the art of 'magic'?

Cant say that I do... but I am always curious as to how its done. Some of its pretty clever.

Maybe you can share some 'tricks of the trade' when your book arrives...?

The book has arrived. It is actually quite good! The start is all about card control...how to shuffle a deck, but keep track of a card and then make it appear at the top bottom, 3 cards down e.t.c
