Does anyone have the study guide for "Royal Road to Card Magic" that I read about in an old post. The old links are dead. I will be happy to PM you my email address. The study guide sounds like a great idea and I really would like to get my hands on it.
Thanks, Greg |

Hey Aus,
Are you sure the study guide you posted in that thread is complete? The book contains 20 chapters, but that study guide only lists 9 of them. It completely omits more than half of the book. Is that intentional? Also, it ends like this: 2. Spend week 6 on Chapters IX, X, and XI... The ellipsis seems to imply that there was more to the document. Please clarify. Thanks, Greg |

Here is the Quiz that's goes with that guide that Opie put together for it which also suits as an abbreviated version of the guide I posted in that thread. As you can see from this one he considered some chapters more important then others and my estimate is the ellipsis were a reference of continuing with the subsequent chapters at your own pace and discretion.
RRTCM Quiz and Study Guide Chapter I – Demonstrate a mastery of the Overhand Shuffle as follows: a. Top Card from top to bottom and back. b. A rapid smooth run of 10 to 12 cards. c. An injog shuffle control. d. Overhand False Shuffle. e. Two tricks from the chapter. Chapter II – Demonstrate a mastery of the Riffle Shuffle, as follows: a. Control top and bottom stocks of cards. b. Smooth shuffles at a table and in the air. c. Two tricks from the chapter. Chapter XV – Demonstrate a mastery of the Hindu Shuffle and its related controls, as follows: a. Control of single card and a stock of cards. b. Hindu Force. c. Glimpse. d. The Step. e. Jog. f. “All Change Here”. Chapter XVI – Demonstrate a mastery of the Classic Force, as follows: a. One-Hand Force. b. Bottom Force. c. Slide-Out Force. d. Double-Life Force. e. Cut Force. f. a couple of force tricks. Chapter XVII – Demonstrate an effective top change. It is deadly and its mastery will place you in the Card Man/Woman category faster than the cutesy flourishes. NOTE: The skills outlined in the five chapters above are the most important in the book. Master them, and then proceed to master the principles and effects in the remaining chapters, beginning with the following: Chapters III, IX, X, XI, etc. – Do not become frustrated with or hung up on the flourishes. Just play with them every day, and they will come. Read the remaining chapters. Magically Aus |
