Brian,
I agee, very tough to do just one Smile
but it seems some people do have their favorites.
What I try to do is not duplicate effects.
For example, If I do back in time (sankey's triumpth) I will not do TWISTED SISTER. I also love Tyler Corbin's Just Joking where 4 jokers turn into 4 kings and then all cards are shown as blank. For those who do not like portions to NFW, they might find his version to their likig, but there are tons of moves and counts. I did simplify it.

Is Roy Walton's Cascade in a book or just available as a separate packet trick dealer item?

MagicMan1957,
It is available as a separate packet effect. Nice thing about it, the cards are NOT gaffed, so all you need is instructions...

The effect is the important thing, how you achieve it is not.......

This is a tough question. I love so many of them!

I may have to go with Presto Printo as well.

Yes, it is a tough question.
There are SOOOOOOOO many great packet tricks.
During my routine, I do patter "how it takes years to master a deck of playing cards. The key is to start out small. In fact, when I use to perform, I use to use just 4 cards (I love this justification from Daryl)then I do Bill Malone's Gemini twins." I also do HOLD IT BUSTER by Dan Harlan. In fact, this is my first card trickd trick then I can say, "and I should have know better because he never did play with a full deck so let's try something with a full deck."

Brief description: You count 4 cards in your hand all face down, you take a card out of the middle, turn it face up and this causes the bottom card to turn face up, you now show all 4 cards are turned face up. Once again pull a card from the middle, turn it face down, once again all the cards are face down. all this time the spectator has seen 4 red back cards and 4 faces all the same. You now place 1 card in your pocket, ask how many are remaining, they say of course 3. You now display 4 cards again, 1 face up and 3 face down. Fan the cards and there are now 2 face up and 2 face down. Now for the finale, turn the 2 face down cards face up and they are blank, turn the 2 face up cards face down and they have 2 different BLUE backs. All can now be examined as they do not use gaffed cards...

A version of Color Monte called Gypsy Monte 2003. The only difference is that I use 3 cards from a regular deck (can be borrowed) instead of the Tarot Cards.

I would probably flip a coin between The Virginia City Shuffle and Colour Monte

-The secret impresses no one. The trick you use it for is everything.

I think Rainbow Cascade has a much better ending visually. This is a COLOURFUL version of Roy Walton's original 'Cascade' where the original routine has been altered to incorporate brilliant colour changes from normal backed cards to quite stunning holographic material backed cards! Available from Davenports Magic Studio London. Price £7.50 + p&p BARGAIN!
You were born original... Don't die a copy Smile

Without needing to think, I'd chose: "No Camera Tricks" by Mark Lee. Easy, great presentation (esp. w/ my own edits & acting), everyone has loved it.
+If I cop out the extra card I can go right into The Last Trick of Dr Jacob Daley, and Vernon's Twisting The Aces using the Kings...
I'm not just a magician, I'm an interpreter of Reality.
Underground, above ground, whatever. I don't need a label, thanks.

I still like Jon Allen's Double Back.

When Einstein said insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results, he must not have attempted coin and card manipulations...or am I truly insane?

Life is a test. It is only a test. If this had been a real life, you would have been given further instructions on where to go, and what to do.
