Hello, Im wondering what the best beginner card tricks are out their at the moment. Tricks that arent very hard

One question for you before yours can be answered...

"What skills/experience do you have?

Tree, I have bicycle cards have a few penguin lectures and know the basic tricks eg. 4 aces

I would suggest the royal road to card magic. There are a lot of good tricks explained in there but most importantly you will also learn all of the most important card sleights.

Thank You, I have already bought

Can you control a card, slop shuffle, riffle shuffle, palm a card, double lift, these are really the only moves I use.
there is really no reason to need more...ie...chops
it's like Harry Lorayne says there's really only 3 moves needed to do Great Magic, a good control, a decent DL, and palming a card.
you know what...he's right.

another note, go to the workers section, you'll get better reaction/help over there, a strange mix of cardists.

The ones you learn and spend some time with.
Heard you got Royal Road, cracked the cover yet?

A very cool and easy trick to learn and perform is "neither blind nor stupid" by the genius Juan Tamariz. It requires no skills at all and it hasn´t got any sleight of hand. Here you have the link with the performance by Tamariz itself: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hFBn6y9q-iQ

Harry Lorayne's 'The Magic Book' is unreservedly recommended.

It will not only give you all that you need to know starting out with card magic - but it will teach you other things such as magic with coins and other everyday items. The bulk of the book however is cards; it will take you through ALL of the necessary tools that you need - with Harry's excellent conversational style of teaching via the written word. No ambiguities - no confusion - it's as if he's sitting next to you taking you through what needs to be done.

Most importantly, it will give you enough material, powerful and solid magic, to last you a lifetime.

I started out in 1977 as a 13 year-old kid with this book - it had just been published. I still read it and perform tricks from within its pages. It has not only been my inspiration but it's also given me a living for many, many years.

I cannot stress enough the importance of this book to someone new starting out. So many books contain pipe dreams; this contains material to give you a reputation. To reiterate, read this book and it's all you'll basically ever need to know to become a proficient magical entertainer.

You can buy it from Harry direct - see:

Thanks for the nice words, Barry.

Incidentally, I believe that Juan's effect mentioned above was first published in the States (or perhaps anywhere) decades ago, in APOCALYPSE, titled Blown Away. (I do it as a completely impromptu thing which I'll publish in a book of "only my" contributions to APOCALYPSE over the twenty years - if I ever get around to it (it will have to be after another book I'm working on now).
