"Alright, a little worried about using the svengali deck and putting together a routine. One of things that happens if you are a kind of a magic beginner and you get a cool new tool like this is you want to just use it and show everybody. You want to do every svengali trick in the whole world that you know for everybody who will watch. One of the things I want to encourage you to do is if you're putting together a larger routine of magic, only use the svengali deck for one or two tricks. Actually, you can really only use it for one because the force card will be the same. Later on as you understand magic theory and practice a little more, you might be able to use that to your advantage. There's nothing wrong with doing a set of tricks for somebody only one card trick in using a svengali deck for that and doing a different card trick with a different deck later on. I'm going to show you later a bunch of ways to use some of the svengali principals together in a routine. I talked to you a little bit about combining another deck, but the thing I want to discourage is you do a million svengali decks for the same person. A million svengali tricks to the same person like in one sitting that's probably not good. Put together some routines that have some variety to them."
