Especially for Move Junkies

Here is Dan Madison again, but this time he is not masquerading as a profession card cheat. Here he simply does moves, moves, moves and more moves.

I though this might make a pleasant interlude to the more serious discussions so very prevalent on The Gambling Spot.

I especially liked the tattoos on all his fingers, hands, arms, neck and who knows where else.

Enjoy...

And as usual, he has invented everything. All is his creation, invention.

^Easy, easy... lol

I got this around the time it originally came out, and it's cool and all; they did a great job of hyping it up and using DMs whole character to sell it, but it wasn't all that exciting. After going through the whole thing I only found about 3 "moves" that were worth using/practicing. And the bulk of the material which makes up the 26 moves figure is really just the same thing but used in different applications, for changes, for controls; it's all about the same. Enjoyed it, nonetheless.

I should consider releasing a DVD myself, about sleights. I already have the title: "2,478 sleights which are gonna kick your niece's ass. Yo!". $250. 10 moves for a buck, isn't it a real steal?

I think you may be a little hard on Madison. After all, here is a guy who invented the second deal when he was three years old, the bottom deal at five and then the center deal at 8 years of age. He was beating all the pros in high stake poker games when he was 15 with his advanced moves, all of which he developed and invented.

In fact, rumor has it that 95% of the material in the Arcana series was originally developed by Madison.

So give the guy a break. He is exceptional, incredibly talented and has more tattoos on his body than the Tattoo Lady in the Ringling Brothers circus has.

I am concerned over the lack of warning to epileptics.
If there is a single truth about Magic, it is that nothing on earth so efficiently evades it.

I understand he never got caught cheating and got the tar kicked out of him either.
Mr. Quackenbush believes that there is no such thing as a good magic trick.
