I love Impossible by Larry Jennings as well as some of the effects at the beggining of Jennings 67 which are self working.
I love some of the work of the CATO principle- the effect I use is something that I came up with. However, Daryl's untouched, if used in the right circumstances, is just a killer. It's simplicity makes it one of the strongest things I do. |

I've had great reactions with "It happens in their hands" and a couple of other routines from Juan Tamariz "Verbal Magic".
Just my 2 cents, Michael |

I had completely forgotten how absolutely STRONG "Overkill" is!!! Time to dust this bad girl off and do some damage
Just curious: those who perform this fine effect, do you use it as a closer? It seems to me that, after reading the effect again, it would be pretty hard to follow this in a card set. Comments? Namaste, Vlad |

I have to say the invisible deck. I really like Jay Sankey's "X" handling of it. I had no problem sacrificing my deck to that trick.

And now that I think about it, Jay Sankey's Astal Projection is also a fantastic self working card trick if you don't mind a gimicked deck.

It is actually an Annemann effect straight out of The Jinx, called "King's Kards". Sankey's handling is slightly different, but, the effect first appeared long before Jay was born. I will have to check the video to see if Annemann was credited. Namaste, Vlad |

For some reasons (which?) Juan Tamariz' "Never blind nor silly" (from his book "Sonata", Roberto Giobbi published it also in one of his "Lightest" books) hasn't been mentioned. It is a absolutely impossible looking location of two selected cards. Besides that it prepares the deck for OOTW. Jan

Where, if I may ask, can I find Overkill? Is it in a DVD, book, etc.?

Dom,
It's in Paul Harris' book, 'Close Up Fantasies'. The second book, I believe... |

I guess it is not really a trick in itself,but Simon Aronsons Self-Control is pretty cool.

I love Steven Youell's The Card Trick That Has No Explanation. I guess it would qualify more as semi-automatic, but that's good enough for me!

Today, my favorite self-working trick is "Con Cam Coincidencia" by R. Paul Wilson, because the performance involves multiple participants.

For a long time I did Frank Garcia's "Quadruple Coincidence" which is on one of the old Tannen 'Stars of Magic' tapes.
