J.R. Russell started the evening off with a presentation of Joshua Jay’s prism deck. He performed a very nice four ace production and a complete deck color change including the original four aces. The deck was a hit among the group.

Mark Paulson performed a second sight routine from a recent Genii magazine where three predictions are initially incorrect yet his second predictions were right on the money.

Jim Earnshaw presented a handling of twisting the aces as well as “Coins in the Mist” by John Carney.

Enzo Lombardi performed a nice four ace production card routine where he presented the card deck as a computer. Each time he “programmed” the deck he would push out some cards and then by pushing in the cards back in an ace would be produced. The final ace production was a very clever shocker.

Evan, a new visitor to our club performed a quick coin trick where a penny grew in size. Although the trick was quick Evan’s execution was perfect.

Hugh Castel presented a nice haunted key routine with a great back story involving a local state mental hospital. Hugh’s story was very compelling and he really transported the group with the story.

Sam Shaefer presented David Stone’s Invisible Aces routine. Sam did a great job with the routine making each king vanish and appear on the table very smoothly. Sam even added a bit of smoke from his hands to the last vanishes!

Chuck Kleiner performed Frank Garcia’s “New York Opener” involving not only a great color change deck, but a beautiful visual card change that got a great reaction.

Larry Dimmit broke out the ESP cards and had a spectator choose three and place them in different pockets with his back to the spectator. Once Larry turned around he was able to tell the spectator what card was in the chosen pocket.
