Thank you Mr Erdnase for coming and sharing with us... from your eternal rest. What three indispensable card moves / sleights do you recommend learning to really entertain others with a deck of cards?

How should we expect replies to arrive? Should I be locking my doors?

MagicMason,

Looking only to our own experience, and assuming you are a conjurer, a good change, a pass, and a palm will suffice. With an eye towards modern developments, we would suggest the "double-lift," an overhand false shuffle, and a force.

What kind of top change did One Arm MacDonald use?

Thank you S W E. Very helpful. Your words remind me of the verse... "he being dead, yet speaketh" Mr Lorayne says similar summarizing things. Great job!

MagicMason,

Even here in the great beyond we're familiar with Mr. Lorayne's works. Although we believe excessive vanity would be his undoing at the card table, his Close-up Card Magic is indispensible to the modern card conjurer.
