As a young magician I was taken by Jay Marshall to see Frank Everhart perform at the Ivanhoe Hotel bar in Chicago. I had read about the Classic Force but had never seen anyone who did it. Everhart had a routine where different spectators would repeatedly pick the same card. The only thing I could think was that he had switched in a one way deck. When Everhart took a break, I told Jay my theory. He had a good laugh and then gave me a brief talk about the Classic force. Over the years I've seen many magicians who do it virtually 100%.

Do it everyday and after a while it just might be the only force you use.

I think that Gary Ouellet (or was it Roberto Giobbi) suggest you try classic forcing a card to a chair or to an X on the wall. You also have to learn to manage time by offering your hands and taking them back.

For a time I owned a great big dog... a St. Bernard. I found that he liked to bite on a spread of cards and take one in his mouth. I also found he was a sucker for a classic force. So I practiced on him.

If you want to learn to classic force, I'd recommend both Paul Green's DVD and Steven Youell's monograph. Both of these guys understand the classic force deeply, and both of them are good teachers.

I'm a mere beginner but since I learned the classic force it has been my favorite force. It can really be mastered to make it work every time. I learned it from Giobbi's Card College, and though I first didn't believe it would work, it does! Confidence plays a more important role than physical ability, I believe.
