I think it is also known as Four In A Row. Penguin changed the name swiped it, as they have done with several tricks from TRRTCM, and sells it as an single trick. I think one of the reasons it does not appear to be a favorite is because it uses the glide. I find that using it as an opener before other slights are employed raises no eyebrows. I also introduce it as "The Trick That Never Works" which seems to go well witht the reveal at the end while evoking some sympathy that I play out for as much yardage as I can get. It really is a great opener because at the end the card is not on the table, but then it is making it impossible. If you try this one do not use the glide again in that session. It has been called to my attention that I seemed to be saying the trick suffers because of the use of the Glide, that is not at all what is meant. What I mean is, and this is only a guess because I do not see the trick getting any votes, that the Glide might be felt to be inadequate and a suspicioius way of showing the cards. Someone at (The Magic Castle?) once told me that when beginning a routine one should "Hit them in the head with a 2 by 4." It will stun them into believing anything that follows. This trick does exaclty that because when the card is revealed it is impossible that it is there. "The only difference between a Card Cheat and a Magician is that the Magician shows off."..........

andre combrinck Special user South Africa 953 Posts	Posted: May 23, 2004 04:15 pm 0 Timely Departure-Bannon.Almost self working,easy to do and contains great elements ie vanishes,reverses. Jumping Gemini-Ortiz.Resonably easy(very easy if you were Ortiz),with and excellent reaction from the audience. Triumph-Dai Vernon. Membrane-Paul Harris.Moving a pen mark on and off a card is a hoot. Between the Palms-Elmsley. This is just the effects I perform the most and get the best reactions from.There are many other excellent tricks and it would be impossible to list all the best card effects.Fayaad give your favorites.

Also, some assume the because you state card to ceiling is the best trick, when it really isn't all that spectacular in comparison to a lot of other card tricks, but hey: The trick is only the vehicle and the MAGICIAN makes the magic. A lot of the new effect are on ellusionist.com and penguinmagic.com, but you already know where to go for old school. Vernon is God....
Marco S. Inner circle 1017 Posts	Posted: May 24, 2004 02:25 pm 0 Ambitious card Two-card monte These come to mind immediately
Jonathan Townsend Eternal Order Ossining, NY 27300 Posts	Posted: May 24, 2004 02:31 pm 0 Still very happy to avoid most of those tricks. I suspect the one where you table a card, then ask them to name a card is about the strongest direct trick one can do with cards. The other stuff tends to come across as 'clever'. ...to all the coins I've dropped here

Metalepsis Loyal user 232 Posts	Posted: Jun 12, 2004 11:12 am 0 I know its a less popular trick these days but surely "Drunkman shuffle" deserves a mention... Its my favourite trick because there's no prearrangement necessary...borrowed deck...One sleight, one misdirection, good patter, visual illusion and verbal confusion, and pow strong visual finish. Maybe this trick goes under a different name? I have never found it in a book, just word of mouth passage... M
Doomo Inner circle 2364 Posts	Posted: Jun 12, 2004 03:54 pm 0 What is the double lift? I hear a lot of you mention it. Is it a good trick? If you ever get to a point where words have no meaning, you're probably talking to a dog. Remember! More Bang For LESS Bucks! It is the right way! www.rfaproductions.com

Doomo: I assume this is a joke. But in case it is not, it is not a trick. Pick up a basic beginner's book on card magic and you will find your answer. And, hopefully, we've avoided the onslaught.
