So Jamie, what's the concensus? what's our official # 1 trick of 2013?

Happy New Year, everyone!

Celebrity Smart Ass Brad Pitt Version. I hope this qualifies as the BP version came out this year.

5 Card Box.

Haunted Doll. Once again I hope this qualifies as there have been other versions over the years.

Chappelly

1. The code by Andy Nyman and Theory 11. The "prop" is very well made and easy to use and the routines and advice on the dvd is amazing. The routines on the code dvd is probably some of the easiest card/mentalism effects that you can do with a deck of cards and still some of the strongest you can do.

1) inferno - Joshua jay
2) turbo stick - Richard sanders
3) no tear newspaper - Mark Mason

There HAS to be more suggestions.

Here's my vote for:
1. Inferno
2. Envy-lope
3. Money Trigger

Here is mine:

1. Doppelgaenger
2. Clarity Box
3. The Code

1. The Code.
2. The Crusade.
3. Glance

Now we're on a roll!

Celebrity Smart Ass(pro pack) by Bill Abbott
Ace by Richard Sanders.

I almost refrained from purchasing "Ace" because of the similarity to "Ten", but the face up visual aspect of the jokers in the spectator's hands was the hook that got me. And after purchasing it and practicing it tirelessly, I am very happy with my purchase.

Really. It doesn't get much more visual than this.

1) Tiny Plunger
2) Clarity Box
3) Pac Stack

Anyone know if there is any other BEST OF, for DVD, card magic and etc?

Contest closes midnight, Jan.31!

And, gang, please number your votes:

1.

3.

It doesn't matter what order, but it helps me discern an actual vote from someone just commenting on something they like. Thanks!!


And what a race!! Let's take a look:
