Hey I bought a blank back deck because I figured there was something creative I could come up with , but nothing. are there any routines out there or can you guys just throw out some ideas for me.

Thanks in advance

Ryan
Any Effect Is Possible, methods are relativley easy to come by, but it is the effect that takes true courage to come up with

I have a lot of routines which use blank backs. Mostly packet tricks. But one of the best blank back routines I can think of off the top of my head is on Richard Sander's "Super Cards". Uses the full deck for an open prediction kind of thing. Can't remember the name of the trick. But the entire dvd is amazing. Highly recommended.

Watch the blizzard demo on Penguin magic.
Aldo has a nice effect called draw a blank, but you'll need to purchase additional cards.

John Guastaferro has a great nudist deck variation called Snowball Aces on his Brainstorm Vol 2 dvd.

I saw something of Gregory Wilson`s on his Pyrotechnic Pasteboards video using a blank deck, it is a really really cool ACR. Very easy to do actually. I would recommend that.

John Lovick's "I Dream of Mindreading" is fantastic! It was published in MAGIC several years ago.

Try doing a classic force with 1 normal card in the deck then turn the rest blank. Freaks people out.

Yet another vote for Snowball Aces.

ALSO

Instead of Blank Cards - I use zero cards
- the zero of hearts, spades, dimonds, clubs
I put them in my Caj Deck of Gaff Cards
an option for when a blank is really supposed
to be a zero value card

I recommend John G.'s Gemini Prediction in Brainstorm Vol. 2 ... this is a killer!!! imagine impossible prediction of four randomly-selected cards and an astonishing finale that no one could have predicted!

Killer Clone Zone routine on the Clever Card Magic DVD's is a great use for such a deck.

I think he means specifically blank BACK... many of the routines mentioned are blank face routines. I second snowball aces by John Gustaferro. I have a six card repeat that makes use of these cards... you can PM me if interested. You could also do a color changing pack with the backs vanishing instead of changing colors.

Hey this one can be overused, but for kids they like it when you make the whole deck black and then whip out a 52-on-1 card with all the cards. From there you can do many different things such as have a previously forced card be the only one to appear in the deck or use a giant card kind of as a joke

that's my idea,
I might have another later but have fun with that for now

You can have ridiculous amounts for fun combining blank facers with blank backs. A whole new twist on spectator cuts to the aces perhaps?

Some of the effects stated here are using BLANK FACE cards, not BLANK BACK cards. for blank back cards I suggest sanders super cards video, it has many amazing effects on it

Yes, this was mentioned on the 23rd of October by Jquackc, but you have to remember, some people have no clue what they are talking about, or even bother to read the entire thread, but even so, their magical progress is astounding.

Sounds like a good vid.

A fun trick employing a deck and a single blank backed card is to be found on the "2Faced" DVD, by David Forrest. The effect is "Wee Wee Mentalist".
