The "exact" protocol of the "Collector" principle as taught to Dominique by Derek Dingle is scrupulously respected here, namely: - The four Aces are placed face up aside at the beginning of the trick. - Three cards are chosen, and are lost in the deck. - The four Aces are put on top of the deck. - And without shuffling or any other manipulation, the Aces "collect" the chosen cards, i.e. they are found face down in between the four face up aces! Allan Ackerman proposes his own version, the techniques are original, and the chosen cards are really clearly lost in the middle of the deck (no Tilt Move!).

The four Aces are produced one by one. The magician thoroughly shuffles the deck between each production. To buy a regular deck of cards click here.

Are you interested in the magic of coins? Here's a move you absolutely have to master! It will require a little practice, but will allow you to perform miracles under the nose of your spectators, with normal coins. The principle: give the illusion that you are putting a coin in your hand, when it is not the case. A great classic of magic!  

After a lot of different shuffles, you don't find the aces as usual, but a king! Then two kings and soon four kings. You lose them again in the deck and this time it's the four aces that come in their place! A nice routine full of twists and turns. You'll like it, no doubt about it!  

A really useful technique, which Dominique uses all the time, because it allows him to obtain sequences, each one more incredible than the other (especially when combined with the Donald Move).  

Freely chosen cards are printed on blank cards... and the deck, as if by sympathy, also becomes blank. You can buy this product in our secret shop, to which only "I'm addicted to magic" subscribers have access.  

The ultimate trip! A chosen card mysteriously teleports itself from your hand to the deck of cards that never left the table...  

A must in your repertoire! A card is freely chosen and then lost in the deck. Four cards are shown, with the chosen card being among them. Magically the card disappears from the small packet of four cards, and finally ends up face up in the middle of your face down deck. It's crazy!  

A wonderful routine! A red deck is shuffled and four cards are freely selected. Incredibly, they are the four aces! But that's not all: the entire deck is transformed under impossible conditions! We hesitate to tell you the end because it is so surprising: the deck becomes multicolored. The backs are all different! You have to see it to believe it!
