    I think there's two master lessons to take away from this. The first is to be mindful of who you select for your participants, and to make sure your instructions are clear. The second is how to recover and be gracious when an honest mistake occurs on the spectator's part. I never cease to be amazed at Michael's card-handling OR his people-handling skills. Bravo, sir.

    This guy is always reinventing himself -- I've seen a lot of his videos, all of which are top-notch, but these are all new to me. It's nice to see her isn't resting on his laurels and rehashing old tricks (although in his case, that's not a bad thing) -- the magician's magician, to be sure.

      That trick is called out of sight out of mind by Dai Vernon. He didn’t improvise. Didn’t need to bc Vernon is a genius - everyone will have a card thought of after showing nine. That trick is a blast to perform. Spidey has a tutorial for it on CZcams (only he shows 6 cards instead of 9), it’s in quite a few books, as well as Michael Ammar’s Easy To Master Card Miracles (which is where I learned it) if you’re interested. Have fun!

There have been numerous of excellent sleight of hand artists over the years who have deliberately avoided doing shows for larger stages, either because their particular style might not translate as well or because they just prefer the more intimate setting.

      Paul Brashier in fact he was perfect. After the show he told me he was so nervous. He taught me a valuable lesson. So he wasn’t wrong all, I fact our audience is there to teach us. It would be a great world if every spectator could handle cards like we do and nothing goes wrong. Life doesn’t work like that. Every performance I give is a series of adjustments to create the perfect outcome.

I feel like the guy spoke reasonable English, but his English skills were not quite good enough to clearly understand every instruction. Certainly not a criticism of him.
