The first lesson is a masterclass on Palming:
You’ll learn Vernon’s Topping the Deck (the proper way), the Erdnase Top and Bottom Palms, and an “Easy-going Bottom Palm.” Then Swiss will talk about what is, perhaps, the most overlooked detail concerning palming: how to replace the palmed card back on the deck. We’ll examine palm replacements by Erdnase, Marlo, Thompson, Vernon, Carlyle, Latta, and more, exploring ways to add the card back to the top, the bottom, from action, and from repose. These moves will be put to work in tricks Swiss will demonstrate and then teach: Paul LePaul’s “Quadruplicate Mystery,” Vernon’s “Travelers,” and Schwarzman/Jennings’ “Night Visitor.”
