World's Greatest Magic - Selfworking Card Tricks Vol 3. (Instant Download)

Discover the captivating world of card magic, where the impossible becomes reality right before your eyes. While many card effects demand years of dedicated practice to master complex sleight of hand, 'World's Greatest Magic - Selfworking Card Tricks Vol 3' unveils a different path to astonishing your audience. This exceptional DVD collection focuses on powerful, high-impact card routines that rely on ingenuity rather than dexterity, making sophisticated magic accessible to everyone.

Effortless Astonishment

This volume is your key to unlocking incredible card magic that seems to work all by itself. Forget knuckle-busting manipulation; the secrets here lie in clever mathematical principles, pre-arranged stacks, and subtle psychological ploys. Even if sleight of hand isn't your strong suit, or you're looking for compelling material that's easy to reset, these 'self-working' effects are potent weapons in any magician's arsenal. They provide a unique texture to your performances, ensuring you're always ready to deliver a moment of pure wonder without extensive preparation.

Featured Masterpieces from Legendary Performers

Immerse yourself in a curated selection of eight phenomenal card tricks, each taught by a master of the craft. Daryl kicks things off with the heartwarming 'Happy Birthday Card Trick' and later returns with 'Spectator Finds the Aces,' where your audience magically locates the four Aces from a shuffled deck. Allan Ackerman puts a vibrant twist on a classic with 'The Clock Trick,' while Michael Ammar's 'Secrets to a Royal Flush' and Harry Lorayne's 'Ten Card Poker Deal' will make spectators think twice about challenging you at the poker table. Witness Johnny Thompson pluck Aces from a spectator-shuffled deck in 'Sense of Touch,' and marvel as Harry Lorayne demonstrates how to turn an ordinary deck into a 'Voice Print' lie detector. Bill Malone's 'Perfect Stop Trick' adds another layer of mystery and control.

While no trick truly works by itself—a captivating presentation and understanding of the procedure are always essential—the effects on this DVD empower you to amaze and amuse when someone inevitably hands you a deck and says, "Show me something..." Elevate your card magic repertoire with routines that prioritize impact and cleverness over demanding dexterity.

Original Specs

Magic with playing cards has always held a deep fascination for performers and audiences alike, most likely due to the almost infinite variety of effects that are possible with them. Everything from sleight of hand to topological tricks are all potentially a part of the magician's arsenal and somewhere in this broad spectrum are card effects that almost work by themselves.

On this DVD, you'll see a number of powerful card tricks that rely not on knuckle-busting manipulation but rather, on mathematical principles, stacks, and subtleties, aided in some cases by very minimal, basic sleight of hand. Daryl starts things off with a trick that combines birthday greetings with the discovery of a selected card while Allan Ackerman puts a differently-colored spin on a classic of card magic. Michael Ammar and Harry Lorayne show two completely different effects that, if learned and performed will guarantee that no one will ever want to play poker with you while Johnny Thompson is able to pluck the four Aces from a spectator-shuffled deck while the cards are in a pocket. Daryl is next with a wonderful effect where the spectator is able to find the Aces himself from a shuffled deck while Harry Lorayne returns to finish off the volume by demonstrating how to turn an ordinary deck of cards into a lie detector.

While there's really no such thing as a self-working card trick - you still need to learn the procedures and rehearse an interesting presentation - it remains that a simple trick without the use of sleight of hand can be a deadly weapon when slipped into a card magic set. These kinds of effects can add texture to a magic performance and with the tricks you'll learn on this DVD, even if sleight-of-hand really isn't your thing, you'll always be ready to amaze and amuse when someone slides a deck of cards over to you and says, "Show me something..."
