The Travelling Aces

[PaulTheillusionist]

Completely amazing!

[GhostofLenoir]

“It is essential to perform this sequence with an air of finality, not purpose.”

— Paul Wilson, on Vernon’s Travelers

[brianweidner]

Wow, cool

[NoelGrassy]

Dang, Loogit all that hair he had!

[FunnyCowboyDance]

Ouch. Terrible performance.

[AugustinPeng]

@FunnyCowboyDance you are joking, right ?

[FunnyCowboyDance]

@AugustinPeng Uh, no.

His pacing is off.

His palms, while executed extremely well, are executed at the entirely wrong moments.

He shuttles the deck from hand, seemingly without motivation to any degree.

That ploy for the last card kills the entire trick. It muddles up what should be a climactic ending. You look like a bungler.

Attempts at suspense come off as they what they really are--methodological necessities.

And last, but not least: "Hey Mikey, why are those cards so bent up?"

[magicelliotth]

@FunnyCowboyDance that's Michael ammar for you though.

agree 100%

[FunnyCowboyDance]

@AugustinPeng Although not all the blame should be placed on Ammar--those are faults with Vernon's construction as well.

[TheBradTobin]

@FunnyCowboyDance This is not the original travelers routine exactly, while displaying the card that comes out of the left pocket and displaying it, the next ace is palmed by one hand top palm, here, amar uses a two hand top palm before taking the first card out with the boottom palmed cards, i agree the palms here take place at the wrong moment, and the procedure is a little off.

[aroad4abetterplace]

modern efects are inspired by him.hes a hero.

[MagicalLobo]

A Legend in the close up art of conjury.

[TheatreHead]

wow, he looks young.

[JeffSCorn]

I got to sit with Michael a couple of weeks ago. He's one of the nicest guys I've ever met.

[CARDMAN365]

Michael ammar is a great teacher of magic.

[3ofclubz]

daryl is the greatest teacher of all time

the 2nd magicians magician next to legend dai vernon

[bairdyboy1]

"as soon as a snap ma fingers" lol

[3ofclubz]

yeah he did so

[magictruitt]

I love ammar. he is one of my idols in magic, but i must admit, he had the moves down flawless, but he lacked entertainment in this specific show. but overall, very nice!

[gamemeister27]

He was probably nervous, he's much better now.

[TheBradTobin]

@magictruitt i agree hes much more entertaining now that hes older.

[Fbido]

That was a very nice palm for the 3rd card...it clicked hard, though.

[JeffSCorn]

That wasn't a palm clicking, that was him snapping the card to show that it was single.

[sebaba001]

nice paaaalm very nicee

[ljqzkw]

Ammar is a genius, the professor is always above him though, he must be nervous...

[jordangavin]

fuck what kind of palm was that he did for the 3rd card he did it with one hand and swung the card in his hand never seen that before

[TheBradTobin]

@jordangavin lowey palm, not sure if thats the right spelling though.

[wetandwild123]

how you do it tell me any nose to do the houdini ring flight trick

[magicjazzzXCM]

Michael is the best

[verialflip]

holy crap! ammar flashed!? wow.

[onelegtwoshoes]

Yeah he flashes a few times. Still pretty good.

[LukeNP]

Simply fantastic!

[pici6100]

i got the trick...though i couldn't ever do it...at least not without 2-3 day of intense practice...the hesitation makes part of the trick when he look in all the pockets he actualy take the aces from the pants pocket and put it in the upper pocket...preety hard to explain...

[d3rfliw]

so you really think you can possibly do it like Ammar does it with just 2 or 3 days of practice? oops, i'm sorry, you said "intense" practice, my bad.....

[arleco12]

Nobody asked you for an explanation, so don´t try that hard.

[Adilinar9000]

Revelations has been one of my best purchases in magic.

[Johansonson]

He does look hesitant, must be because the professor is sittin watching him to. have any of you seen the revelations DVDs?

[magicbird05]

I have all of them,and I've only watched the first two.

I gotta see where this is.

[jigglypuff988]

Michael looks so young here

[kishz]
