Hey guys, you like magic tricks?

I love them, so I felt I had to post this here. Two of them which I really like:

Thankyou for watching it. If you leave a message I'll be very pleased. I don't mind if it's good or bad. If it's good, you'll cheer me up; if it's bad, you'll make me improve. So thanks!!!

That was actually pretty cool.

But the part that surprised me was that you were using Bicycle cards! I actually recognised the pattern! Yay!

Bycicle cards!!!!
They are the best cards in the world!! When you use them, you won't like to use any other!!

Nice, you're pretty good! I think I figured out how you did the first one, though I didn't see anything to prove it. I'm clueless about the second though. Which is the way it should be ;D

Thankyou! You must have a good mind if you figured out how I made the first one!!

I hate magic. Because I know it's all just fooling you, not real, and yet you don't know how it's done. It's really annoying and frustrating for the viewer. Some might not find it this way, but I just can't enjoy it ;) :P

I love the one with the aces and king of hearts, well done! There's a local magician here called Mendoza and I always force him to perform some magic tricks for me & the friday night beauties out in the pubs...he's quite good, but not THAT good! :)

Beautiful sleights!

I love magic. I also have a blue rider deck, which I think is what you used. Who would have though that an interest in magic might correspond with in interest in amateur adventure games?

I guess it's because they're both super-cool.

Is that what they call Bicycle (http://www.magicianscave.co.uk/Images/bicycle%20BLUE.jpg) cards in Britain?

Sadly I haven't practiced in years, and I have no video camera. I wasn't very good at card sleights though, I did like the cup-and-balls routine.

I half-remembered 'rider back' as the name for the regular design for bicycle cards. I could easily be wrong though.
