Item description for Real Ace Cutting by Benjamin Earl

Real Ace Cutting by Benjamin Earl

"Many people would see this DVD as two hours on one trick, but one should not look at it that way. The fact of the matter is that these notes that are being taught can be used for a great many other things. He teaches in-the-hands and on-the-table Ace cutting methods." -Norman Beck, M-U-M Magazine

Card lovers rejoice! Ben Earl's definitive treatise on legitimately cutting to the Aces is finally here. With a running time of over two hours, this DVD will show you:

How to find four Aces from a spectator-shuffled deck

Numerous new false shuffles

A dozen controls and control finesses

Single and multiple Ace-cutting sequences

A system to produce Aces that feels like the real thing

Benjamin Earl is widely regarded as one of the finest exponents of sleight-of-hand in the world. He guarded his material closely for more than a decade, and has just begun sharing his incredible discoveries with magicians.

Real Ace Cutting is a new system--an outlook--on how to find four Aces from a shuffled deck. Ben realized that if you were to actually cut four Aces from a deck, it wouldn't look like a routine, "pat" with productions that seemed cozy and pre-planned. Instead, it would appear as if you were improvising, using every advantage, and dealing with whatever the order of the cards presented. This is, in fact, exactly what you will do with Real Ace Cutting.

Ben takes you through how to take any shuffled deck and locate the four Aces. He will share with you controls, dodges, and subtleties on how to maintain control over four Aces, and produce them in ways that seem completely fresh and organic.

When you master the contents of this revolutionary new collection, you'll never produce four Aces in the same way. Even when your audience views you doing this multiple times, it will always look different and feel quite different. But every time, it will feel real.
