And just how many can make that audience shake their heads, rub their eyes and recoil in shock at the magician’s stupefying powers of mind control? Learn the secrets behind these mind-blowing card tricks with this fun how-to. The tricks are rated for difficulty, impact upon unsuspecting audience members, and the type of setup and preparation required. Techniques include Sleight-of-Hand, Forcing, False Assumption, Preset Decks and Evil Mathematics, along with the most amazing technique of the incredible One Ahead.
