Thanks for the answer... Jordan8.
That is the one.

Stan Willis, Yes, the one where he changes up the counts a little in each vanish.

Thanks again for the replies.

Chad Longs....No Mercy

Yes, it is. The 3 ace version. He uses Elmsley counts for all three vanishes.

As far as the Hofsiner routine, I don't know Mr. Townsend. Sounds good though, I love everything Derek Dingle.

I would like to know where the Derek Dingle 100 $ ace routine was printed. Not the one in the Complete Works with 2 cards, but the one with 3.
Thanks

I love Tenyo. The Rainbow Silks was one of my 1st magic buys years ago.

I still like the little Color Vision like Clock effect they did.

Glad they are still around.

Eugene Burger had an enlightening article in Genii called "can you tell me the best card tricks?" that covered this. It's also in his collected essays.

Looked good.
Have you seen this vid on Utube... It is pretty much the whole book.

you could try the rule of odd. maybe three to five.
a biggining, middle & end. kapow!
what kind of magic? cards, coins, mental, or other?
do you do any gags?
tell any stories?

the only time I really use card to wallet is in a insurance policy routine. I use this as a platform or stand up routine. the policy and all the money in my wallet if I don't find their card is in their lap during the routine. I use my fire wallet for the trick which lends itself to some great lines...

never said it was, I only mentioned it cause of the color change at the end and the flipping that happens in Too Many Cards with the 3 of spades. sorry to get so off the topic of ambitious card plot.

Anyone ever play with the Geoff Latta version from Apocalypse 12/78...
...Twist till it Hurts?

I like the Too Many Cards Version as well. Will have to check out Bruce's version.

hi, I am currently in Alabama for a short period of time. I am on Skyline Mountain. I am about 50 miles from Huntsville. would like to check out a IBM or SAM meeting or just a Jam Session if there is any. can anyone help me out?

Jerry Andrus.... the man was a juggernaut and he fooled me with tons of stuff... the linking pins although I knew the method looked like real magic in his hands. made me question if I really knew how he did it or not. lol, he was so cool. he really did fool me when he produced all those half dollars...

If I was only doing one and there was a small crowd, I would try and get as many folks to help as I could. No Mercy seems to be a stunner for me. It never fails to impress. Leaves folks speechless and feeling like they really saw some magic. I usually use it as a closer in one of my card routines. t...

when I think of the EC, I always picture A. Emmerson doing it. he had a crazy way of doing it that just sticks in my mind. the way he taught it in his lecture as well. the cards up high in the hand and he would turn as he did it. I do the count with the cards more in a dealer grip and more like some...

I love the Visitor
I also like Aaron Fisher's Search and Destroy
I have my own version of Paul W. Cummins Collectors that I enjoy performing.

Scotty

for entertaining me, I love Chad Long, Derek Dingle and Bill Ma...lone!. I love Harry Lorayne for entertaining and teaching me at the same time. as an afterthought (where have I heard that before?) I enjoy Paul Harris a great deal as an entertainer and teacher and Bill Malone is pretty good at show ...

I have the "Flipped Out" Directions, I do the trick all the time it's a favorite of mine, so much so that I made a set with Bicycle cards and Mylar. I also love the Larry West trick "Sequence", which you did not include in your Small But Deadly vol. one. Any plans to have it in t...

my own version that was inspired by Derek Dingles Open Sez Me. I also like the LePaul Version of Shaking them out.

hi

I have not posted here in a while. had to say somekind of goodbye to the Man who made it all come together for me. Derek Dingle will always be my favorite. I am going to go break the seal of a new deck and do too many cards, all backs , open sez me and have a good cry.

s.p.

thanks for the details richard. I have the mechanics of the move. the problem I have is that as poor as the discription is in the c.m.o.l.j. the work on the misdirection is worse. I would like to see someone do it someday or not for that matter. ha. I just saw mike maxwell a few weeks ago and he cou...

how about the larry jennings one hand bottom palm. I have tried for a couple of years to get it. I don't get it. whats the cover for it? is it movement? did anyone ever see larry do it? how did it look?
s.p.

there was a time when magic shops got a lot of my money. now I really only buy books. its hard for me to find anything I want when I go into a magic shop. I still try to get something though just about everytime I go to one. I bought a book from denny once at a con. but never over the internet or at...

still the best... dai vernon the slow- motion aces. grow/learn to love the vernon transfer.
dingles take on the mcdonalds aces is also a great version.
s.p.

I still love flipped out fours. I make them out of bikes w/ sticky mylar. its still a great routine. I also love the old e&w effect 'sequence'. larry west was always one of my favorites. I can remember just about everyone of the emmerson/west packet tricks as they came out. used to love to see a...
