Hey everybody,
Just a quick note to let you know about my At the Table lecture with Murphy's Magic on 9/21. I'm really looking forward to this one! Here's the link: http://www.murphysmagic.com/product.aspx?id=58362 Jason Ladanye's approach to magic is simple - not about complicated sleight of hand. Jason looks for original plots and uses time-tested well-known sleights to achieve miracles for laymen. While Jason Ladanye will be teaching a few effects from his last hit book, Confident Deceptions, most of the effects taught on this At the Table Lecture will come from Jason's upcoming book, Game Changer. This means you have the opportunity to be the first to learn a ton of new hard hitting and unpublished material. These effects are strong, but also incredibly practical and meaningful. Jason teaches how to start clean and end clean with a regular deck of cards and perform magic that spectators will remember forever. Here are the effects that Jason will be teaching: Nick of Time: A race against the clock to locate 8 cards in 60 seconds. This one is a real crowd pleaser. It keeps the audience in suspense literally to the last second. This uses a regular deck and can be done anytime and anywhere. This is one of the strongest effects in Jason's next book. Ladanye's ACAAN: The performer gives a stunning demonstration of his ability to shuffle track cards. He follows the position of a selection as it changes during the shuffles and cuts. A moment later the performer causes any card to move to any position in the deck with no false moves. A laymen walks away from this effect thinking you're a serious threat at the card table. The Big Stack: Here's an amazing and entertaining gambling routine. Jason stacks Queens, Kings, and Aces in just two shuffles. This gambling routine plays like a magic trick. The spectators can know nothing about poker and still find this routine incredibly fascinating. Wait until you see the reactions. Game Changer: You play a simple two-card game against the spectator. With money on the line, you end up with your back against he wall. The audience knows you cannot win this game-until you cheat in the most unexpected way possible. Forging Ahead: There are plenty of signature transfer effects out there. Jason's contribution to this classic plot is to move a spectator's initials from the FACE of one card, to the FACE of another. This is one of the strongest tricks in his book, Confident Deceptions, and one of the easiest to do! Lucky Charms: This is an effect that spectators just can't comprehend. A folded card in view from the beginning ends up being the spectator's signed selection. The best part is that they never see the ending coming. In addition to teaching all of the mechanics to the effects, Jason will talk shop about effect construction, audience management, misdirection, and how to maximize the impact of every trick. This is not an At the Table Lecture you'll want to miss. |

I saw Jason perform and teach Nick of Time, Ladanye's ACAAN, Game Changer, and Forging Ahead at the Magic Castle last Sunday. (He also taught one other effect that used faro shuffles.) Jason's material is strong card magic that works in the real world. Highly recommended!

Thanks everyone. Glad you like the material! Be sure to leave a review on Murphy's site though. That makes all the difference;)

I loved the lecture. I learned so much but my favorite thing was the multiple card strip out. my head is ringing with the possibilities in my own routines. But thank you so much.

Any news on the release of your new book, Mr. Ladanye?
The AT THE TABLE LECTURE was excellent...I'm enjoying working through a few effects! I'm curious, was the close up mat that was used during the LECTURE the same as that found for sale on your website? Thanks so much for your continued gifts to the magic community! |

My next book will be released in 2017! We are still working on layout, editing, pictures, etc. The mat I used in the ATT lecture is the same as the ones for sale on my site: http://www.cardmagicbyjason.com/store/close-up-mats/ (I use the casino green.) And, thanks for the kind words:)

Hi Jason,
I am in the middle of watching the lecture and the first trick is great. Super simple and great for a real audience. This sort of is a not important question, but what did you mean when you said "Free App" playing cards? Maybe I mis-heard what you said. Thanks man! |

Jason,
I look forward to watching your lecture, my leisure time is currently on the short side but plan on watching yours after I watch Jeff McBride's penguin lecture (which is great by the way). Really liked your book, Confident Deceptions, not only were there great effects but I loved that you included a DVD with demos of the effects. I wish more magicians did this, I actually think it would help sell more books as well. Do you have plans on including a DVD demo with this book? |

Some decks will be fine, others you'll need to do a few faros to break in the deck. Gold standards on the other hand will faro right out of the box because they're traditionally cut (and just better quality all around.) |

What does it mean to be traditionally cut?
|
jason ladanye Loyal user 254 Posts |
Traditionally cut means that the playing cards are cut face to back instead of back to face.

Execpt for the fact that its hard to do Faros from a brand new deck( the cards split at the corners) I have also noticed that they are stiffer and feels harder. I know that there are always a natural bend in the cards, but these Free Apps are too much in my opinion. When you try to make them more straight they pop back and its hard to get them flat. My Free App deck are printed in 2013 and 2015. I really hope that they check the quality more often, maybe some ppl have sent in complaints about this. |

I've noticed that they're hit or miss. One out of every 15-20 is unusable. However, I'm seeing less of the "Free App" decks now and I haven't opened a bad one in a long time. I wrote a blog about it a while back: http://www.cardmagicbyjason.com/playing-cards/
By the way, the new book will have about 6-7 faro effects. So start practicing:) |

Hey Jason, I look forward to your online lecture on the magicians forum in May! I'd suggest everyone else registers as well! Going to be a good time. https://business-hangouts.com/register.p......MTE0MTUz
