Michel W.Potts – Straddlevarious

In the seventh installment of Michel Potts’ card magic series, he offers six more commercial effects – all well routined with the kind of engaging storylines that you’ve come to expect from him. Michel is a working pro in Bangkok, Thailand, who performs for some of the toughest audiences any magician can face. So you know his material WILL “go over!” Like many magicians, Michel avoided the Faro Shuffle for most of his career, at least when working for paying customers. However, all that changed when he learned the Straddle Faro which is much easier to do. In the Introduction to this latest release, Michel explains how even though it looks quite impressive, the Straddle Faro is actually quite simple and walks you through the process with four crystal clear color photos. He even gives you some helpful preparation tips that make the shuffle even more surefire. Plus, none of the effects call for a full deck Faro Shuffle and at the most require you to weave just seven cards. 36 pages.
