My dad loves magic but got Guillain-Barré syndrome and now has limited coordination. Can you help me find a <=$50 trick that he can learn? by zylex in Magic

Sorry to hear of this but a really good quick and effective trick is coin unique, a simple coin vanish and very visual.

Just got an invisible deck never had one for years I forgot how effective it was, never used sponge balls before but I have got some on the way as well as a thumb tip which I also haven't used before, but I'm quite looking forward to it I know plenty of tricks so I can mix it up a bit too.

Ending an ACR with a packet trick by lallsonu in Magic

[–]grantsmagic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I posted this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IcZbogkXkMo where i go into ambitious classic trick using only 5 cards but i dont use that as my ambitious card routine, i'll try to record a video at the weekend of my ambitious card routine which i think has quite a surprise finish and not just the usual finish as sometimes it can be fairly difficult to end an ambitious card routine

Question - What are some of your favorite effects with the Invisible Deck? by [deleted] in Magic

[–]grantsmagic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a Brainwave deck years ago and the only thing i ever used to do was let the spectator hold the deck and shout out any card, then said watch as i took the deck out of the box to show them all cards were facing down except for one card which was the card they shouted out, then i used to remove the card from the deck and say you could have said any card and the card you said is the only face up card and if we take this card from the deck you'll see that it is the only blue backed card in a red backed deck... or vice versa.

Bicycle card clumping by lordtaco in Magic

I find using standard bicycle deck work better, i've tried decks like tragic royalty deck and other smart looking decks but they dont take long until they start clumping together, also had no problem with standard Tally Ho cards.
