"Alright, so now I'm going to show you sort of a combination of some stuff that we've done and a complete routine using the Svengali deck and then we're going to break it up and show you how we do it. Here's the performance...I'll have you say stop, look at the card and I'm going to mix it into the deck, we'll give it a couple of cuts like this. Now I'd like for you to say stop again and we'll cut the deck at that point and amazingly enough you have found your own selected card. Let's bury it int he deck one more time. See if you can do the trick again. Only this time we'll cheat a little bit, we'll wave our hand and the card will jump right to the top. Now it doesn't just work on top, if I give it a little snap, we can cut the deck and get the card to come to the bottom and I can get another one and another one and another one, it's almost like a copy machine and there's another there. As a matter of fact if we give it a little shake like this, all the cards have became the same. But if we cut it one more time, the queen of clubs has completely vanished, there's the queen of spades, the queen of clubs has completely vanished from the deck. Until we can cut it one more time, they can cut can turn it over themselves to find the queen of clubs. That's a complete routine and in the minute I'll break it down for you and show you step by step."

on 8/2/2008 Nicely done and overall very informative as were all Malik's videos. I have a Svengali deck and have been timid to use and this gives me confidence and a great routine to use.
