A couple of weeks ago I did a Cameron Francis effect that ends with 4 Aces on the table and 3 red spot cards in your hand. This is an excellent follow-on effect and in fact I think I have seen a video of Cameron doing just that.

From his book Ultra Cervon, this starts as a small packet ambitious card but has some unexpected surprises.

I made up this classic Paul Gordon effect myself many years ago after seeing it on one of his DVDs, but it is apparently a marketed effect. I just noticed that if you pay attention, you can see my black cat in the background.

A Roy Walton-inspired effect from one of my favorites,

This 7-Card Monte sucker effect reminds me of the Hungarian Guessing Game.

A friend showed this to me many years ago. I have to imagine that it is a published effect but I'm afraid I don't know who to credit. Update: I have been informed that this is a Paul Gordon effect called "That's Not Possible" with a slightly different handling.

It's been almost a year since my last post life got in the way, but hopefully I can start posting regularly again. Some may wish I had stopped for good, but hopefully more of you will enjoy these videos. There are many versions of this plot. Some may like other versions better, and some may think there are a few too many cards here. Vanishing Inc calls it the definitive version of the effect.

It seems like gimmicked Oil and Water effects are all the rage right now. This one from The Illusioneer can be done with a borrowed deck.

After recently doing the Caleb Wiles effect with the color changing backs, I thought of this old trick from Workers Vol. 5. that has better, fairer displays and used to be Close's opener for restaurant work.

Dave is back, but this trick is from his older booklet Fandango Part 1. I like it as it's a different, offbeat effect.

A different kind of 3 card monte and one of my favorites.

Full title: Here-A-Move, There-A-Move, Everywhere-A-Move-Move from Caleb's High Spots booklet. Do we really need another twisting the Aces routine? No, but this is kind of fun.

Something different this week. This was a limited release and as far as I can tell is no longer available. There are many versions of this effect, but so far this one is my favorite.
