Blackjack Transpo
A participant becomes the ultimate cheater by causing the Ace and Jack to change places while holding one in the card box and the other up his sleeve.
M.I.T. Aces
The magician keeps finding Aces instead of the selected card. All is solved in a final powerful moment.
Book of Clues
The audience digs for clues in the deck to determine the identity of an unknown card, and like any good mystery, there’s a final twist.
Here, There and in my Pocket
A selected card appears is seen in several places simultaneously, then changes into the four Aces, then transposes with a pocketed card.
X-Factor
The magician uses x-ray vision to look through the deck enclosed in the box.
Stock Exchange
In this nearly hands-off effect, two spectators cut and mix the deck face up and face down, yet manage to find their cards; straighten out the deck; and separate the reds and blacks!
Match Game
The performer and spectator find four Aces together.
Daley Prequel
Simple and surprising. With a wave of a card, the two black Aces transpose.
Multi-Mental
In this unique take on the multiple revelation effect, the magician reads the minds of seven people—then produces each card in a different way.
iContact
The magician and spectator both think of the same person … someone from the spectator’s own iPhone contact list. A really intriguing new phone concept.
