Maybe I should post this in secret sectione but I can't so in case erase it.

I thought to use the mexican turnover for a prediction, the core of the trick is this:

I take an indifferent card from the deck and place it face down in front of me, the specator think of a card and tell me which is. I spread with an excuse quickly look for the card cut the deck there. DL to hide First card and show that it isn't the chosen. Than mexican.

My problem are: How to conditionate the use of a card to turn the one on the table : tis is the main problem
littler things is how to really quickly glance where is the card, I assum just training (at the moment I spread as he is finishing to tell the card and already looking for the card.
Which is your tecnique to cut the spread where you want without looking awkward?

Thanks

I was sure that it already existed somewhere. Which is the book? I fear it will be hard to manage to find it here where I live.

I believe it is in Close Up Card Magic by Harry Lorayne, which is reprinted and edited in The Classic Collection vol. 1, unless I'm mistaken?

Close Up Card Magic is also available as an ebook from Harry's site, http://www.harryloraynemagic.com.
Apart from the 50 or so pages on the curry turnover and applications it is also one of the classics of card magic!

It shouldn't do, if you go to http://www.harryloraynemagic.com/newmagicbooks.html and press order now by the CUCM book it should take you straight to a shopping cart where you can either checkout normally or with PayPal. If you're still having problems I would e-mail Harry Lorayne directly

Someone just did contact me. Yes, that is a stupid mistake on my website - trying to get it fixed. I've told the person that emailed me to just PayPal the amount without the "shipping" charge to my persoanl email address - the first one listed below this post - and I'll immediately send the link to Close-Up Card Magic. Anyone else interested - please do the same. Best - HL.

That was me, just made the mistake of using a different email, sorry of so much pressure, but I was so excited that someone with so great experience made a good trick with my same humble idea that I absolutely wanted to know it! Moreover it was one of the few ways to obtain a book of yours

Jrediens: I honestly don't consider that a "book." All the others listed on my magic website are "books."
