Unfortunately, if you start with a gaffed deck, as soon as you have accomplished the impossible feat, its very strength causes audiences to say, \"Let me see those cards!\" With a deck switch, they can, because you just switched the gaffed deck for a normal one, which they can even take home! A deck switch can also allow you to start with an ordinary deck, convince everyone it's you and not the cards causing the magic-then you switch in your gaffed or stacked deck and unleash a stunning effect. Deck switches can create extraordinary, incomprehensible effects-as long as the switch isn't detected or suspected.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAnd there lies the challenge. Everyone knows about switching decks. We've all heard that card cheats do it, and magicians. In reality, though, very few magicians switch decks, because it is commonly perceived as too difficult to get away with. And since everyone knows about switching decks, even a suspicion that a deck switch might have occurred can completely undermine a performance. Therefore, if you use any deck switch, it must be not only imperceptible, but also unimaginable.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eRoberto Giobbi\u003c\/b\u003e teaches you precisely how to do this-standing, seated, with and without a jacket-using shrewd psychology, not knuckle-busting sleights or special gimmicks or apparatus. The only things required to do these professional switches are decks of cards and your pockets. Giobbi teaches dozens of methods for imperceptibly switching decks, along with the psychological principles behind them; principles that allow the reader to apply and modify deck switching techniques to suit any circumstance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAnd along the way, Giobbi explains some very strong card magic.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs is expected from \u003cb\u003eRoberto Giobbi\u003c\/b\u003e, the techniques and tricks in this book are not pipe dreams. They come from his professional repertoire, sharpened by hundreds of performances and explained with all the detail only a world-class teacher can bring to a subject.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThere is no other book devoted to this important topic-and it holds information that will be of tremendous value to beginning and advanced card magicians alike. The Art of Switching Decks is an in-depth study teaching over 30 deck switches and a few remarkable tricks.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eDownload included\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eApproximately\u003c\/i\u003e: 163 pages 10.25\" x 7.25\" -Hardcover\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003eExplore more \u003cstrong\u003ecard magic\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003ecard tricks\u003c\/strong\u003e, and professional physical magic from MagicKits.com.
