What You Will Learn
Opener
Start your performance strong with a compelling card trick that blends psychology, skill, and mystery. A spectator’s selection is lost and then magically revealed at their chosen cut point, leaving them to question whether it’s magic, psychology, or masterful sleight of hand.
Illusion & the Box
Witness a stunning illusion involving signed cards and the four kings. A selected, signed card is placed into a box, and one by one, the four kings transform into the signed card. The true illusion culminates when the signed card is revealed to have never been in the box, replaced instead by the four kings for a powerful kicker ending.
That’s Why They Call Me King
A crowd-pleasing routine where the magician identifies a spectator’s favorite four-of-a-kind, skillfully loses them within the deck, and then, through a demonstration of precision, not only finds all four but visually transforms them into the four kings.
Coin to Ring
Experience a mesmerizing transposition routine. Three coins are produced, vanish, and then magically switch places with the magician’s wedding ring. This routine is packed with visually stunning productions and vanishes that will leave audiences in awe.
Lie to Me
A powerful psychological prediction where a card is selected and lost. The spectator is instructed to lie about their card, allowing the magician to deduce the actual selection. The routine delivers a jaw-dropping finale, revealing a forgotten prediction that precisely matches the chosen card.
Rubber Prediction
Witness a prediction wrapped in mystery. A prediction is set aside as a card is selected and lost. The entire deck is then secured with a rubber band, only for the selected card to visually vanish and reappear in the center of the deck, still wrapped by the band. The prediction matches the card, which is then joined by its mates for a surprise four-of-a-kind finale.
The Diddle Trick
A highly visual two-phase Biddle trick designed to astound. In phase one, the spectator’s card visually vanishes and reappears within the deck. Phase two involves spectator assistance in the card’s disappearance, only for it to visibly arrive back in the deck.
What Lies Beneath
Transform a deck of cards into an impromptu lie detector. This routine features an on-the-fly setup, culminating in a shocking finale where the truth is revealed in the spectator’s own hands.
Jiggernaut 2.0
A modern revival of Mark Jenest’s classic routine, enhanced with additional loads and an organic shot pour at the end. This updated version ensures a stunning and memorable production that will leave your audiences amazed.

What will he teach?
Opener- A simple yet STRONG opener that will really set the tone! The magician explains that this is a basic in card magic where the card is selected, lost and shuffled in the deck. The spectator is asked to cut exactly where they think their card is and fails to find it. The magician turns it into a better trick and magically changes it into the selection! Is Magic? Is it psychology? Or is it blinding sleight of hand skill? It’s up to the spectator to decide!
Illusion & the Box- The 4 kings are magically produced and then used to create an illusion. A card is selected, signed, and placed in the box. One at a time, the 4 kings become the signed selected card. Then at the end when they think it’s an illusion because their card is still in the box, the true illusion is that you never had their card in the box because it’s really the 4 kings that are in there! A real kicker ending!
That’s why they call me King- A spectator is asked to pull out their favorite four of a kind, the Magician loses them and through a demonstration of skill finds all four and then turns them into the 4 Kings.
Coin to Ring- 3 coins get produced, vanish, and switch places with the Magician’s wedding ring. A stunning transpo filled with productions and vanishes!
Lie to Me- A prediction is made, a card is selected, lost in the deck, you ask the spectator to blatantly lie about their card and from that you deduce their actual card. At this point they’ve totally forgotten about the prediction, and that’s when you really hit them hard!! This is worth the price of the lecture!
Rubber Prediction- The Magician makes a prediction and sets it aside. A card is selected and lost and then the entire deck is wrapped with a rubber band, only to vanish and find itself in the center of the deck wrapped around their selected card. The prediction matches their card and the rubberband wrapped card doesn’t come alone, it brings along the mates for a great 4 of a kind finale!
The Diddle Trick- A very visual 2 phase biddle trick that will really destroy your audience! Phase one, they visually see their card vanish and end up back in the deck. Phase two, they assist in the vanish of their card and this time they see it ARRIVE in the deck!
What lies Beneath- A deck of cards is transformed into a lie detector. There is an on the fly set up, and the finale happens in the spectator’s hands!
Jiggernaut 2.0- A classic routine by Mark Jenest brought back to life, but this time with some extra loads and a shot pour at the end that is sure to be your most organic production!
