Veering from the Royal Road by Sleightlyobsessed

When looking at a number of the effects from the Royal Road to Card Magic, I found their construction and handling to feel very dated. I have taken my three favourite effects from the book and reinvented them to make them more direct. using modern sleights and construction ideas.

Contained within the project are detailed explanations of my take on the following effects and sleights.

A Card and A Number – An ACAAN style effect in which the spectators card ends up at a thought of number that additionally allows you to divine the number that they thought of. In this I teach a more chaotic variation of the Miller Table Cut/Control.

Now You See It – A trick in which the magician attempts to guess the spectators card with a shocking transformation of a card under the spectators hand.

Designed for Laughter – The magician reads the poker face of a spectator whist trying to divine a card which has been shuffled into the deck (by the participant). You are not only able to divine the card in a magical fashion but have an undetectable kicker ending.
