It is a mistake to practice poker tricks/magic tricks, and the so-called practice is not to ask you to practice hard, because every trick must have a skill, and this skill is different for everyone. The secret of practice is to "practice the performance well, and then think about what you did wrong and then revise it and practice again", but before you practice before the performance, you should practice and think about how to do it well (not what you did badly), and then correct your own technique.

If you know what to do after thinking about it, but you are not very flexible, you can practice while watching the video, so that after a long time, your fingers will get used to the technique you practice, and be more flexible with this technique, and the speed is guaranteed to be faster and faster. But if you don't want to practice directly, practice while watching the video, I don't have this guarantee that you will practice well ==

The fingers are flexible and you can do finger exercises. There are many people who see that finger is difficult, so they are impatient. But at least do something that helps you with your fingers ==

Try playing with instruments (piano, guitar, gongs and drums seem to make the response better), each with different benefits.

If you don't have anyone to teach an instrument or aren't interested, try something else, such as spinning a pen. Pen spinning is a cool looking finger exercise, it not only makes your fingers more flexible, but also allows you to train your brain to control your fingers, because some of the pen moves will not listen to the call, and as a result, you will turn other pen movements.

About the basics of coins and playing cards:

In the magic of life, the two most common magic tricks are playing cards and coins, don't think that magic tricks other than playing cards and coins will not use its tricks!

For example, the following life magic tricks use poker and coins:

Disappearing Batteries - You can play with the disappearing technique of coins

Business Cards – You can play with the basics of playing cards

About the small hand, in fact, don't worry about this, you can play well according to the play, if you really think that the hand is small can not play then go to buy a smaller deck of playing cards can also play. However, it is not recommended to use small cards, and if you get used to it, it is likely that you will not be comfortable with normal size playing cards. Because I don't feel very comfortable playing small cards ==

This is important when it comes to the strength of a newbie.

I began to learn playing cards, I take the cards regardless of his strength or small strength, just be able to take it == Later, I learned that the strength of playing cards depends on what kind of technique you play.

Why do some people do not do well, the force is too strong, or the force is too small ==

For example, if you do pass, the force is too big and a little stuck, and the force is too small, if you think you won't, you must be used to it!

Sometimes don't think that you will destroy the cards, so you don't use a little force to play poker techniques, this is the strength of the small and simple methods can be done, but the complex methods are very difficult.

I said that there are 3 basics, that is, holding cards, taking cards, and double-turning.

Why these three are the most basic? Because holding and taking cards will definitely be used in any magic trick. The double flip will be used in most magic tricks, and it will definitely be used at any time when you encounter an oak.

Most people hold cards with their left hand, but the opposite is true for both left and right handers. Left-handers like to hold cards with their right hands, right-handers are left-handed, of course, some people may be left-handed people will hold cards with their left hands (I am an example), the hand that holds the cards mainly depends on the individual, just hold it comfortably, it doesn't matter which hand holds the cards.

The main thing is to hold the cards steadily, you can see the English teaching film can notice that no matter how many times they have cut the cards or what the trick, as long as they hold the cards, they don't need to get all the playing cards. I've watched a lot of teaching videos and performances recorded by netizens, no matter what actions they do, they still have to get all the playing cards in the end, which is not very stable, so you still have to practice holding the cards

The basic way to hold the card is to hold the thumb on the inside side, the index finger on the top side, and the remaining 3 fingers on the outside side (PS: if you are left-handed, the left side is the inside side, the right side is the outside side, and the right hand is the opposite)

Thumb - easy to push cards outward, usually used in dealing, dialing and doing Blake, although some people will take thumb cards.

Index Finger - Depends on what magic tricks you play, such as card change, illusion guide, hole card Blake. At the same time, this finger is also used to play cards

Middle finger, ring finger - depending on what magic trick you play, such as playing cards empty-handed.

Pinky - Mainly used for Blake, Pinky is actually used for many purposes, such as moving the card to the lowest (the face of the moved card will be reversed), and moving a single card. Some people hold the cards with their right hand, and the left and right hands are the opposite (the rest don't say much, because the difference between the left and right hands mentioned above...). ）。

The most common number of times to draw cards is the basic technique used in cutting, spending, and getting the opponent to put their chosen cards on top of the other half of the pile.

The basic way to take cards is to put the thumb on the side of the lower card, the index finger on the back of the card, the middle finger and ring finger on the side of the top card, and the little finger can be placed on the side of the top card or not touch the card.

Explain what these locations do:

Thumb - Most will use the thumb Blake, drop cards

Index finger - easy to cut cards, display cards, why is it related to the display cards? Because they are all the same posture. So the index finger is on the back of the card for a reason, and can do a lot of things.

Middle finger - take the card is more stable, I don't believe you can try to use the ring finger alone, although the same that gets but not so stable, and the cut is often used.

Ring finger - a single move card is used (down version), and the ring finger is used to adjust the balance of the card when the middle and little fingers are pinched (the flower cut is used)

Pinky - Basically I don't seem to do much with my pinky finger, except for playing with flower cuts.

Double Flip:

I also said, there are many kinds of double flips == I personally don't recommend Liu Qian's use, because that kind of test skills are more skilled, but if you really want to turn around before you are willing, don't use your palm, use your index finger!

Why would I recommend the kind of double flip that you have to push with your thumb, because you often do Blake, and you push out the card and then take it back with your little finger, is it the same as this double flip? Of course, Blake and Double Flip are the same, and the smaller the better.

There will be a lot of questions from newbies (including me) about this double turn, why did I accidentally push 3 or 4 cards when I pushed the cards outward?

In fact, the fingers are not used to the cards, basically adapted to the thumb to push two cards, it can be said that you can't push the third card, unless you move a lot ==

If you do the double flop you can see that you are taking two cards, the reason is that the flop method and the hand of the cards are not right! Personally, it is recommended to draw the upper left and lower right corners to flip, because you can't see that it is two cards, if you like to play cards, you can also play cards after the flop, but I don't recommend novices to play cards! Otherwise, the cards will be a clown.

A beginner's change is the way to push the first card and get the second. I also said this change, if pushed up is found to be unqualified, in order to avoid this problem, it is necessary to fold and push the card at the same time, of course, with the middle finger may be seen, so still with the little finger push, slightly push there is enough space for you to pull the second card down.

If this action can not be done, has been let people see is pushed, this problem is actually quite simple, at this time to use the double turn, if you are accustomed to change the card in the front of the hole card, the front 2 cards do double flip to the top card back (of course, you want to change the card, it is impossible to move to the back on the reverse cover), then you have to pay attention! only 2 cards in your hand are heads up, the rest are back up, this is to imply that the other party only 1 card is open, the rest are covered, and then change the cards on the good.
