A superb routine with a succession of astonishing effects: a borrowed pack of cigarettes is transformed into a deck of cards, then four chosen cards are transformed into four Aces, which disappear one by one and reappear. Finally, one card is chosen by a spectator, and another spectator guesses it! To buy: - an ordinary deck of cards click here. - a one way forcing deck click here.  

The magician sets one card aside, saying that “this card doesn't exist... or almost doesn't”. Then he displays two small packets, saying that he has foreseen in advance what the spectator will choose; the spectator points to one packet, and the magician shows that it is made up of a four of a kind in 7... but the other packet is made up of 7 cards! He reunites the packs, and there are now only 8 cards: the four 7... and four Aces! He then adds the card that doesn't exist... and indeed, it disappears! Everything is handed for evamination.

John Bannon lectured at Le Double Fond on October 23, 2023. It was an unprecedented encounter with a great artist who gave us the best of his art.

The spectator's chosen card disappears... and when he gets up from his chair, he realizes that he was sitting on it! The effect is immediately repeated! A third time?... but this time, all 51 other cards disappear, and the spectator was still sitting on them! One last time? But this time, the chosen card is folded between the watch and the spectator's wrist! To buy an ordinary deck of cards click here.

Peter Din is a specialist in magic for kids. In this interview (in several parts), he answers the question: Why magic for kids? More than that, he explains the “how”, and his vision of this particular type of show. Peter Din presents the “Six Cards Repeat” trick... with teddy bears! This routine is completely suitable for children, even the very young (aged 4 and over).  

A spectator signs the card he has chosen; the card disappears... and the magician says it is in his glass of water. But the spectator doesn't see it; then the magician pours the water from the glass onto the table; the tablecloth becomes transparent... and the signed card appears underneath!

Tsunami: Japanese word that means "tidal wave". It is a trick that will devastate the brains of your audience, whether they are laymen or magicians. This variation is based on a Bob Hummer principle. This routine is a completely atypical Tsunami, as there are no chosen cards, but this time the cards are shuffled completely randomly, face-up, face-down, and yet, as the deck is cut into two parts, there are the same number of face-up cards in each!

The spectator shuffles the deck. The magician draws a card at random. The spectator freely names a card... and it's the card that had been set aside! A true miracle!! To buy a regular deck of cards click here.  

The spectator chooses a card, which is lost in the deck. A magic pass, and a card mysteriously turns up face up in the center of the deck; but against all odds, it is not the one chosen by the spectator: it is the 5 of Hearts. The magician then counts the cards one by one from the 5, and the fifth one turns out to be... the chosen card. The four cards that were counted to get to the 5 of Hearts are turned face up... they're the four Aces! And as the icing on the cake, the magician shows that he couldn't have done it any other way, since the other cards in the deck are shown: they're all blank! A completely automatic trick, but devilishly effective! To buy: - a regular deck of cards click here. - a blank face deck of cards click here.
