And no, if they were to check the cased deck at that moment, they wouldn’t find the card that magically went to your pocket.

There are other ways. Some methods hide the card while it is in fact still in the deck. There are also chemical ways of making cards seem to disappear from a deck.

Magicfish: Hugh Grant.
Seriously, though, can you elaborate? |

I also agree with Ben Blau, the Cabolo maneuver is easy. Like any other handling like the simple ones you need to repeat to make sure every thing is perfect.
Yes I have Azymptotes and I am very happy to read it, thanks Ben. |

Hey Ben, I'm a little unclear about what exactly you're claiming as original in that video? Happy to take this to PM if you'd like.

I know what you mean. I am not comfortable with palming in general. But there is a sense in which you can face your fear and not have to worry about the nuances and angles of 'palming' the card off.
I would recommend that you do this at a table... but I would gambler's cop it off the bottom and then lap it. The move is so smooth and the 'heat' lasts only for a fraction of a second as you set the cards down on the table. The misdirection is also built in. This solution is like having your cake and eating it too. |

Thanks, cfirwin3,
This is intriguing. I love tricks that provide relatively easy ways to learn intimidating moves. In what sense is the misdirection built in? Would I need to create a reason to sweep my left hand toward the edge of the table? Or perhaps the right-hand's motion, in carrying the deck to the table, covers the left hand's motion? Bob |

The carrying hand drops the deck to table (which is the misdirect) and the stealing hand laps the card from off the near edge. The whole process is over as quickly as it begins and it's a natural motion, especially after doing something like spreading the cards. |

There was a method in I believe Apocalypse where you have the spectator sign their name on a card with a crayon, the wax causes it to adhere to the card under it. Not sure how you'd reproduce the card.

But even so, it's a standard finesse that most add to the convincing control after studying the move (see Dan and Dave's handling, for example). It also goes back to the original Marlo Hierophant writeup, if not earlier. |

A perfect device for making one or more cards "disappear" is Jeff Kaylors TKO gimmick. As it happens the glide position in the left hand would lead directly into a face card disposal..
The TKO gimmick is so clever I am having to be strict with myself not to overuse it in any one performance. |

Since it was mentioned, here’s a video on my thoughts regarding the Hofzinser Control.
