Just watched the Night Two of this series - it's equally fantastic and fun.

Night One was great, Night Two is even better,
I had to keep stopping the DVD & trying out what the guys were doing.

If you don't find several useful things on this DVD, you should be making DVD's, not watching them.

Passes, poker deals, second deals, the punch deal, and the bottom deal, new ambitious card moves, an excellent ambitious routine, Jack's false shuffle, a different take on the 3 card Monte and more.

At 2 hours & 14 minutes, you get an incredible amount of material for your money.

If you love card magic, you need to get these.

I received both DVDs in the mail last week. They arrived VERY quickly--GREAT service!

I was excited to delve into these, and I was not disappointed...

It's been a long time now since I've been to a magic convention, but I used to attend several regularly (even performed and lectured at a couple). My favorite part of those conventions was the late-night sessions. These two DVDs REALLY captured the feeling of those sessions, and brought back a lot of fond memories. The ONLY unrealistic thing about it was that the guys weren't drunk enough. Smile

I agree with Mike's comment above: Night One was great, and Night Two was even better. All the guys are very likable, and I thoroughly enjoyed "sitting in" on the session.

If you're looking for a full live show followed by explanations of the effects, this set isn't for you. But if you're looking for the closest thing to having several of the world's very best cardmen sitting in your living room talking about and performing card effects and techniques, this is your Mecca!

I give this set my highest recommendation, with the caveat mentioned above.
