The side steal and the diagonal palm shift are both essential for this routine. |

If we have two cars that are functionally identical in all respects but one costs three times as much as the other, from a perspective of pure performance, they're indeed the same. Unfortunately, this ignores cost. If we have two moves that are equally deceptive when executed perfectly, but one has superior angles, then, all other things being equal, the one with superior angles is probably the better move. If one executes both moves perfectly all the time, then, yeah, have at either. A Greek philosopher once remarked there's no difference between living and dying. A student asked, "Then why don't you just die?" "Because," he replied, "there's no difference." We could have a car that functions great with a highly trained professional behind the wheel. Another car functions equally great -- same lap speeds -- when operated by someone with much less training. We have some people who want to drive the first car even if it's more dangerous. Indeed, they want to drive it *because* it's dangerous. And that's just called being man. A stupid man. As for the video, as I remarked several years ago, I cannot think of a reasonable alternative for a DPS given the conditions you've outlined. Congratulations? In the vast majority of cases where the move is deployed, however, those constraints do not hold. So there's that...

That is the Technicolor Prediction by my friend the late, great Martin Lewis. The "Sphere of Destiny" is just my presentation of the effect.

Oh wow. Thanks Pop! Of course it is much different doing it in an actual effect for the public, I can't hold a candle in that regard. But thank-you all the same sir

Here's a good tip for you -- when you get set up into that position where the card is diagonally shifted but you haven't stolen it yet, let your hands get some distance between them (keep the deck in your dominant hand with the card poking out diagonally on the bottom), use your other hand to misdirect with pointing or gesturing, then in one swift motion, steal the card away and hand your spectator the deck to shuffle.
