Quote: I've spoken with Slim on the phone - about a year ago or so - but didn't do ROSHAMBO. Now that you described it, Rocketeer, it sounds vaguely like a routine from Mind Waves, by Andrew Gerard. I'm sure it's different, but it just sounds similar. I'll have to try it one day to see the differences, since it's so highly acclaimed. AND... RCP is right. Slim sounded like a super nice guy.On 2012-01-18 20:39, Rocketeer wrote: Roshambo is an over the phone (or radio) effect in which Slim has you write Rock, Paper and Scissors on three cards. |

The effect in the video is somewhat similar; much more obvious, much less impressive, much weaker in my opinon. ROSHAMBO is a three phase routine that's very difficult to backtrack. The effect in the video is easy to backtrack. In fact just write down the monologue and you can do the trick yourself. The trick in the video is just an obvious reworking of the "old put your finger on a zodiac sign trick" that Copperfield and Maven have done on TV.
IMHO PS. Putting the trick on Youtube where people can do the trick repeatedly with perfect recall effectively destroys the trick, for several reason, as I'm sure you can surmise.

Several years ago I performed ROSHAMBO for Martin Gardner. He knew of no one doing any routine as interactive and mathematically interlocked. Several mathematical principles are involved... not just one. MARTIN was to write the introduction but he unfortunately passed before he did. Martin Gardner was a great guy to work with. I MISS HIM!!!

Quote: I don't know if it's actually a Gerard effect, but teh effect in your link uses the same methodology that Gerard uses on his DVD. Again, it's important to remember that I am NOT saying that Slim's is the same effect. I'm merely pointing out, that from the description offered by Rockleteer, it sounded similar. From Rocketeer's response to the link, it sounds like Slim's ROSHAMBO is, indeed different. Thanks for clearing that up, fellas.On 2012-01-19 01:33, jimtron wrote: Michael, is this the Andrew Gerard effect? |

Quote: Yes ... It is different. I don't know of anyone who has anything like it at all ... However, the new performances of THE KEYMASTER may look like david Blaine or a few others but this also is something a bit different.On 2012-01-19 19:28, MichaelCGM wrote:
