Just my words! Exactly! Very good! Are you a mindreader to? Smile
But I would say 3Fly instead of Expansion of Texture.. But I don't know about that trick..

For every one of the 10 effects listed, there are gimmicked versions. The question is, which gimmicked or ungimmicked version gets the best reaction for you? There's no such thing as "best" for everyone.

Best ungaffed reactions for me:

Coins to cup

Combination Spellbound and Brass/Silver Transpo rouitne



Best Gaffed routines:

Hopping Halves, hands down the best

Dime and Penny (making it seem as if dime penetrates back of hand)

Black And White Surprise (not coins per se, but colored poker chips - close enough!)

Hmmm, this is a toughy... I'll have to say, Matrix ( and that includes backfires and all those...) maybe No extras, chinck a chink, coins across, and coins through table.

Are we talking stuff we perform or stuff we have seen?

For me my favourites that I perform would be:-

Hopping Halves - My ungimmicked version
Totem - "Wildstones" Tavern Magic Volume 1
Hellbound Spellbound - Chris Kenner - Out Of Control
Wildcoin - Nathan Kranzo
Trio - Gary Kurtz - Slightly adapted (no Gimmick)
One Coin Routine - Mix of effects I have put together
Charming Chinese Challenge - Troy Hooser
Mr Clean Coins Across - Jay Sankey
No Jacket Required - Jay Sankey
Spellbound - Various

With the one coin routine this includes what I would consider are the best coin effects you can do with a single coin including:- 1 Fly, Coin through hand, Coin that falls up, invisible hand, vanishes, productions etc etc.

The adapted Kurtz routine covers a few classic plots too including Visible coins across, hanging coins etc

Ungimmicked stuff I would love to do but don't would be Misers Dream but most of all Albert Goshmans opener "Salt Shaker Routine"

I have six locks on my door all in a row. When I go out, I only lock every other one. I figure no matter how long somebody stands there picking the locks, they are always locking three. Elayne Boosler

1) Misers dream
2) Ramsay's 3 coins in a hat
3) Kaps chinese coin routine
4) Goshman salt shaker routine (along with free and unlimited coinage which this is based on)
5) Slydini's 1 coin routine
6) Al Schneiders matrix
7) Ross Bertram's passing the half bucks
8) Vernons glass, coins, and silk routine
9) David Roth's rainbow trick
10)Anythin with the Gallopitch (hey...I had to say that)

Actually, there are effects that I think are better than this...but the topic stated non-gaffed.
