Unlock Effortless Card Magic

Step into the captivating world of card magic, where awe and wonder are just a shuffle away. Magic Video's 'World's Greatest Magic - Selfworking Card Tricks Vol 3' is your essential guide to performing truly astonishing card effects that require minimal, if any, sleight of hand. This digital download focuses on ingeniously designed routines that leverage mathematical principles, cunning stacks, and subtle misdirection, making them accessible to everyone from aspiring magicians to seasoned pros looking for powerful, reliable material.

A Collection of Masterful Routines

Volume 3 presents an incredible roster of acclaimed magicians demonstrating their signature 'self-working' gems. Witness Daryl kick things off with a charming 'Happy Birthday Card Trick' and return later with a miraculous 'Spectator Finds the Aces' effect. Allan Ackerman adds a colorful twist to a classic with 'The Clock Trick,' while Michael Ammar and Harry Lorayne each deliver devastating poker-themed routines ('Secrets to a Royal Flush' and 'Ten Card Poker Deal') that will leave spectators convinced you're a card shark. Experience Johnny Thompson's uncanny 'Sense of Touch' as he plucks aces from a pocketed, spectator-shuffled deck, and Harry Lorayne's fascinating 'Voice Print,' which turns an ordinary deck into a lie detector. Bill Malone also contributes with his 'Perfect Stop Trick,' adding another layer of versatility to your repertoire.

The Power of 'Self-Working'

While no trick truly performs itself – presentation and practice are key – these methods significantly reduce the technical skill barrier, allowing you to focus on performance and impact. These 'self-working' marvels are invaluable additions to any magician's arsenal. They serve as potent openers, reliable go-to effects, or fantastic backups when conditions aren't ideal for complex sleight of hand. Imagine the confidence of knowing you can pick up any borrowed deck and perform a miracle, anytime, anywhere. This collection empowers you to do just that, ensuring you're always prepared to 'Show me something...' and leave an unforgettable impression.

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..."
