Magic Video - An Impromptu Mental Card Routine by Nick Conticello
Description & Effect
Unleash Impromptu Mental Card Miracles
Step into the world of truly captivating mental card magic with 'Magic Video' by Nick Conticello, a digital download packed with three ingenious impromptu routines. Renowned for his contributions to the 'Tarbell Course', Conticello delivers a collection that requires nothing more than an ordinary 52-card deck and a clear mind. These effects are designed for maximum impact with minimal setup, making them perfect for any situation where you want to impress.
This exclusive offering expands on the success of 'The Shadow Placement', providing fresh, powerful material. While one simple sleight is occasionally required, you'll be fully equipped with 'The Widdershins Cut', an effective and straightforward false cut also included in this download, ensuring you're ready to perform these miracles with confidence and precision.
The Sensational Routines Revealed
Prepare to astound with three unique effects:
THOUGHT CAUGHT:
Imagine a routine where the spectator shuffles the deck, cuts it, thinks of a card from one of two piles, and then buries their own selection back into the deck. With no sleights, no outs, and absolutely no guesswork, you, the performer, quickly scan the cards and miraculously remove the spectator's thought-of selection. This groundbreaking effect introduces Nick Conticello's innovative 'Radar Principle' and 'Littlecount', concepts that will redefine your approach to mental card revelations.
AP DIVINATION:
In this elegant routine, the pack is shuffled by the spectator, who then freely removes a random number of cards and silently counts to a mental selection. Without ever looking at the card faces, you unerringly find their chosen card. This routine offers a fresh, compelling twist on a classic concept, elevating its deceptive power.
THE POWER OF FAITH:
Concluding the collection is perhaps one of the strongest 'Smith Myth' type effects ever devised. With the pack in their own hands, the spectator freely thinks of two related cards and even shuffles the selection packets. The pack is then cut, ensuring one chosen card resides in each half. Astonishingly, both thought-of cards are found to be in the exact same position from the tops of their respective piles. This can be achieved with a simple false cut, with an optional handling involving a false riffle shuffle also disclosed.
Whether you're a seasoned card magician or new to the art, 'Magic Video' by Nick Conticello offers a truly revolutionary approach to mathematical magic. These routines are not just tricks; they're thoughtfully constructed pieces of mentalism that will leave your audience speechless and questioning the limits of possibility. Download it today and add a touch of genuine magic to your repertoire.

An Impromptu Mental Card Routine by Nick Conticello
Tarbell Course contributor Nick Conticello follows his debut The Shadow Placement with three more sensational new effects requiring only an ordinary deck of 52 cards and a clear head to perform. One sleight is required; we include The Widdershins Cut, an effective and simple false cut.
Contents include:
1. THOUGHT CAUGHT: An unprepared deck is shuffled by the performer and cut by the spectator. Two piles of cards are dealt out. The spectator thinks of a card in one of the piles and buries the selection in the deck himself. The performer scans the cards quickly, and removes one card, which turns out to be the selection. No sleights, no outs, no guesswork. The spectator cuts the pack before and after the selection process! This effect introduces two new concepts: the Radar Principle and the Littlecount.
2. AP DIVINATION: The pack is shuffled by the spectator who removes a number of cards at random and counts to a mental selection. The performer finds the card without looking at any of the faces. This one features a new twist on a well-known idea.
3. THE POWER OF FAITH: The finale is perhaps the strongest Smith Myth type effect ever devised. The spectator freely thinks of two related cards with the pack in his own hands. He also shuffles the selection packets. (No counting is involved in the selection process.) The pack is cut in half so one chosen card is in each half. The thought-of cards somehow end up in the same position from the tops of their respective piles. This can be done with nothing more difficult than a false cut, but a handling with a false riffle shuffle will also be disclosed.
4. THE WIDDERSHINS CUT: A simple and effective four-way cut, reprinted from The Shadow Placement.
Whether or not you like so-called "self-working" card tricks, you will not want to pass up a book which may herald a revolution in the technique of mathematical magic.
