magic journal 6

ahh. haven't posted in a while eh.

I just started practising the Coin Roll yesterday.. isn't a magic trick, more of a flourish that looks pretty cool if you can do it well. My fingers just look clumsy when i do it :/

And since last week i've been practising just one card trick, my Ambitious Card Routine.. finalizing how i want to present it and practising that one move that i can't do smoothly though i keep practising :/ stupid turnover.
The basic effect is i let the spectator choose a card, can have him sign it to make is distinct. That i put the card into the middle of the pack, snap my fingers, and it comes right back to the top. And i do this again. and again. and again. =)
It was the one trick that fooled Harry Houdini.

Here's a short video of that story. Can skip this video it's quite boring


And here's the video of someone performing it. It's one of my favourites as it is really long. He does it so many times! it's not easy to do it so many times. Figured the whole thing out though :p
