Ron, where you are flashing - in the hand or in the spread?


The spread. A single card never remains concealed. I spent hours last night thinking I might be able to work out a finesse.

Such was not the case. So I guess I don’t mean “flash” I mean “premature reveal.”


Ron, I found that the Stud cards from Walmart help with this. Except for the Joker there is a little more space between index and edge that gives more cover.

Little late to the party, but got my copy this week. I have to say, I was expecting to be a little disappointed what with all the hype. Serves me right for prejudging it.

All I can say is I’m so glad I got it despite my early misled preconceptions. The book is certainly beautiful, well deserving of a place on any magicians coveted bookshelf, yet it’s what’s inside that really earns its place. Fantastic routines, clever construction and wonderfully explained. Not only that, but the accompanying video resource is a great idea acknowledging the markets desire for both excellent books and video learning.

It’s got it all, get it!

Penguin is selling this without the gaffs. Can anyone PM me and tell me exactly what cards come with this, or, post a pic to me with all of the fronts and backs? Don't want to buy it unless I already have most if not all of the gaffed cards.

Comes with the cards from PropDog too.

I haven't read it yet, but it is very nice looking book.

I agree the book is great and is worth every penny even without the gaff set (and yes, they are common gaffs that can be gotten if you you don't have them) but I will add, even if you get the "Gaff Pack" there are still effects in the book that require arts & crafts (different from the gaff cards) and at least one effect that would require a gimmick from a Jay Sankey routine (that Jay still sells, in case you like the effect that much). As I said, the book is well worth every penny, even if you don't do every effect in it.
