I recently got this deck. Thanks for the tutorial …. Great help!
I love what all you can do with the Svengali deck.
Oh man, this falls into such a special category of classic effects/methods that often get left by the wayside for one reason or another. We're stoked to see your treatment of it and pick up some tips!
So glad to hear it! You should check out Nick Locopo’s work with a Svengali! It’s killer and fools magicians!
@@OBrienMagic where can Nick Locapo Svengali book be found?
Love the Svengali deck, was my first trick deck. Love the Mirage deck too!
I agree! Both excellent!!!!
I stop showing the whole deck into the same force card I do other tricks with the svengali and love it its one of the best. Especially making thr chosen card appear on my pocket with ambitious card omg they drop jaws
Great video mate, so much you can do with a Sven! My favorite is probably the worlds easiest ACAAN.
That is right!!!!!!! Forgot about that one! lol
Daryl's Essentials Sevengali DVD is a superb resource for anyone looking to learn more.
Great review. I don't do a lot with cards but think I might reconsider!
Glad to hear it!!!!! Thank you for becoming a member!
LOVE the Sven.. That slum deck has given me a living! Been pitching'em for over 25 years at fairs & festivals in Texas & the West Coast...
BTW really enjoyed your demo / introduction to this deck!
Thank you so much! It was the first deck I ever bought and it is so much fun to use!!!
Pitched at the Oregon State fair sold three gross and almost lost my voice ,what fun ,love pitching the svengali there is so much you can do and it never gets old,new things are created all the time,a great deck switch to finish is always a wonderful addition.
Hey @John Greene way to go man! Good to hear of others working this grind! Not many left... hope your doing good now that this pandemic is becoming part of the past..
@@TheMagicTaco get to demo in one of the greatest still living brick and mortar stores in the world, Magic.etc.com.,we'll show you how to make it look like magic. Love what I do with all my heart, sell it and teach it, get people started in the right way,
Great for use at a bar and breaking the ice with the ladies!!
I close my deck out with two piles of 21 cards (removing the obvious pile) for a different card choice with Siamese twins to finish the trick
Love the deck switch idea ✨🎩
Great information, well done,I am impressed, thank you.
I have some familiarity with this deck. It seems that for some odd reason you have omitted the most important move with the deck. Perhaps you don't know it. I would also advise you to do the "Run" move face on rather than sideways. Oh, and you CAN have the deck examined without switching them. There are ways you know..................
nice!
Don't leave the force card in the switched deck.
Great introduction, I've not used a Svendeck in years (possibly decades LOL), looks like I'll have to dig one out (or just make a new one)
Do all Svengali decks have the same capability of showing as blank and then transform as you showed?
I think you meant to post this comment to the blank deck video? Haha the svengali function is what allows the cards to clone themselves or in the case of the blank deck (mental photography) turn blank. It is another means of hiding cards (similar to the rough/smooth method discussed on MF and Invisible Deck.)
Hope this helps clarify. :)
great deck. never riffle them the way he did at the beginning. dead giveaway
I perform this 30-50 times a day at a magic shop and never get called out on this. Its a dead giveaway to magicians. Laymen have no idea.
