I've used four of your card tricks at work the other day - with the young lad I support and my colleague. I put on a bit of a show with the tricks, and the reaction I received from them (particularly my colleague) was great. He said he's only ever seen magic on TV, never close up, and was very impressed. This is down to you Matt, so thank you 👍

Nice work! But I can’t take all the credit, you actually put the work in and mastered them. Sounds like you did a fantastic job. Well done! 👍

Which four tricks did you use?

Hello! I LOVE your card videos. I've been practicing magic for 54 years starting at age seven. I'm not half bad. But there is ALWAYS more to learn, and you really emphasize keeping it fun. Thank you!

I love tricks like this! I always say that 'once is a trick and twice is a lesson', so I usually only show a trick once and leave them wanting more. Tricks like this with two parts almost makes them feel like they saw it twice and it blows their minds. Great effect and perfect for pretty much everywhere! Thanks for sharing and for your great explanation!

@@MattMcGurk ever do the shadow box ? ( girl from light, one of hennings' favorite? ) I used to do that one , along with some others. my profile Pic, if you can see it , is an actual show picture of one of my performances . I did a twist on it that I've never seen done before. After showing the box empty , I would switch places with another stage hand who was dressed in an identical costume, and when the shadow box lit up , they expected someone else to pop out , but to their surprise, it was me instead.

Whats the point of shuffling at the start of the trick if then you “choose” 12 cards

@MattMcGurk

Ай бұрын

Shuffling at the start just shows that the cards are not in any pre-arranged order. It also shows fairness and ‘honesty’ in what you are doing. Having the spectator shuffle shows them you have nothing to hide. You can choose not to shuffle, it’s completely up to you.

@Cacuofa

Ай бұрын

But you do not take 12 random cards, you go by the deck specifically choose 12. It doesn’t matter where those 12 cards are if you are going to look for them. If you are going to choose ace of spades and 8 of hearts. You can shuffle all you want, then you give the deck to me and I’ll go passing cards until I see those two and separate them

A nice trick, but the explaning is a bit strange, for part 2! Ill think there is the problem, why some ppl fail to reprocess the routine! The Point is 1. explaining the Charlier shuffel bring the most out and than the point that you show 3 times variations of if a Card is face up or down, so the ppl do it multiple times and of corse it will fail than!

Nope, I had the same problem. It’s not in the cutting it’s in the way you flip the deck over and take the card. You are not taking the top card each time but top bottom,top bottom or as you turn the deck over you are just thumbing the cards off. Only use your thumb. You will find it will work. He did not explain this well at all.

@@rendtech Also, just to clarify - You are always taking the top card of the packet each time, its just that your hand alternates palm up, the palm down, but it is always the top card of the packet. its's always the card your thumb is on. I did explain this twice for clarity.

Well that really depends on the ability of the performer to engage the audience. The trick is only a tool.

Why shuffle the cards in the beginning if you are going to cull 12 cards to start?

@MattMcGurk

Ай бұрын

Letting the spectator shuffle at the start just gives the impression of fairness. Best to think that you’re just taking cards out of the deck, it’s not a cull as such. It’s more the impression of that you’re doing more than what you are technically doing.
