My top five is: The Ambitious Card Routine I love this trick because it's impromptu and it's a really famous card trick which is redundant but with the minute changes it makes it fabulous. Locating the aces It's not self explanatory so I'll explain it. The spectator selects 3 cards and then I add them to 14 and then I take the 3 cards face to face and the cards that were face to face were the three aces. But you add the values of their cards up and then it leads to the last ace. I made it a little vague, but that's the trick by NoFirstRule. It's a magician fooler! 5 Card Mind Reading (David Blaine) There are officially two methods. One is probably one you know and also the stacked deck. It's insane and people think I am a devil or something. I set this trick up while I'm misdirecting the spectator. Overall an amazing trick. Jazz Aces Amazing card trick! Virtually impromptu and it's insane and really clean. I love the way you end clean and it's astonishing how good the trick is. Vanishing and Teleporting Card. I know this is simplistic and quite classic but I love this trick, and I got the greatest reaction out of this trick, everyone wants me to show everyone else, and an overall great trick. Anyways, that concludes my top 5 go to tricks. Sincerely, An 11 year old baby, luv u 😘 lol. Bonus/Honorable Mention The Signed Corner Torn and Restored Card. They sign a card, I tear it for real, 'place' the card in the box and make a magical gesture and it's restored and it matches the signed corner. Viola.
My top 5 tricks are - 1.Signed card to shoe or mouth. 2.Here then there. 3.The ambitious card routine( my version) 4.The loose cash illusion 5.Pen through bill..... 4.
When I am put on the spot I usually forget my best tricks and end up doing a bad one. But I wrote in my phone notes all my best tricks and now I never forget All you guys who have the same problem should try this it is so helpful!
1. Mr. E Takes a Stroll - John Guastaferro (Sandwich effect & Aces Production) 2. Twisting the Aces - my variation on it from Vernon 3. Dr. Daley's Last Trick 4. Triumph in the Spectators hands 5. Kings to Aces Transposition
Ha! I eventually found a version to get all the cards to turn face up at the end and then turn back face down. I had to do some Underground Elmsley to make it work. I'll see if I have video of it to post. It's a good visual trick.
My top 5 would have to be: 1. Card to pocket (utilising Gambler's Cop) - love this, impromptu, so impossible, so easy, and the Cop is an awesome palm because the way you can hold your hand flies in the face of what any layperson would say if you asked them how they think a hand palming a card looks. 2. Out Of This World (David Blaine version w/out changing marker cards halfway through) - I love this for large groups because it uses no moves to be spotted and it seems, as the name says, out of this world. 3. 5 card poker hand mind reading (another David Blaine one, no proper name for it as far as I know) - All it needs is a patternless stack, a fair cut by the spectator, a bottom glimpse to know what 5 card stack range they took (cards 23 -27 of the stack, say) and you're good to change lives :). 4. Ambitious Card - Nuff said really. 5. Invisible Deck - I use a couple of versions, in one I just palm a selected card face up, have the spectator shuffle, take the deck back face down returning the reversed card to the bottom, then cut the deck to put the card near the middle. In the other I use a gaffed deck as in the classic version.
No worries, I'm happy to give the method if you PM or whatever, I've got enough stuff from the channel lol I think you're in credit. I would particularly recommend the Gambler's Cop if it's not something you already use, it's a lethal palm, it really is.
Honourable mention actually - Twice as Hard by Simon Aronson - If you're in stack, double ACAAN for 2 spectators simultaneously with no sleight of hand, bit of false shuffling/cutting does help though.
I like the gamblers cop, but i have a hard time getting the card from cop to my pocket. You seem quite knowledgeable on the subject, I'd love to have a talk about magic with you mate
One of my fave effects is revolver by Gregory Wilson, a super nice twist on the classic card flipping over in the middle of the deck plot. Relatively easy to perform, and fools the living hell out of spectators

Wow they sound like some great effects, I'll be checking out those Blaine ones I'm not too familiar with for sure
