Episode #1 uncovers the Spell of Mystery (originally published in 1929) and its variations.

Spell of Mystery – A deck is shuffled. The spectator cuts the deck wherever they want, and the top two cards are used to create a target card. The target card is spelled with cards from the deck, and low and behold, the card is found.

Twice Versa – After performing Spell of Mystery, you can immediately repeat the effect…in reverse.

Big Tutudo – This introduces a plethora of choices into Spell of Mystery to add an additional layer of impossibility.

BONUS:
Love’s Labor Lost – This uses the Spell of Mystery concept, but eliminates the spelling giving you a self-working, easy to master card location.

Episode #2 uncovers “Remembering the Future” (originally published in 1947) and its variations.

Remembering the Future – The principle that started it all! It’s an unbelievable mathematical principle which doesn’t seem possible, and yet, it works every single time.

Remembering the Past, Present, & Future – Madison brings his own take to Stewart’s original effect further hiding the mathematics and turning the great principle into a true performance piece.

The 50% Solution – Stewart found a way to perform this same effect with only ten cards. Disguised as a card game between you and the spectator with an end they won’t see coming.

Episode #3 uncovers “The Jamesway Shuffle” and its variations.

Included in this download:
The Jamesway Shuffle – This incredible principle will blow your mind! It doesn’t seem possible, but no matter how many times you GENUINELY shuffle a packet of cards, you always have complete control. This very well may be the most versatile principle Stewart has ever created.

Your Poker – Madison brings his own take to Stewart’s original effect by generating a fun presentation with a ton of performing potential. It springs out as a natural response to the thing we magicians hear all the time, “I sure wouldn’t like to play cards with you!”

Everybody Think – This effect gets away from a poker deal demonstration and turns into a revelation of five spectator’s thought of cards. Madison has significantly updated the handling to bring this wonderful routine into the 21st Century.

This is a principle you will see the opportunity to use more than you can imagine. Pick this up, and you’ll learn something truly amazing.
