This is it. Hello my friends. My name is Woody Aragon And I am very very very sad. I am not it's a joke. I am very happy because I have a new book Memorandum and I am very very very sad because I am going to share for first time all this stuff It's a four here. I have a four. I have a four and I have a four four. So it's very good It's very good I can't believe it. I can't believe it. You will be So I am very proud of this stuff and I think it's the time to share So memorandum what's it about like I said, it's a brand new deck stack the deck stack that he came up with the memorandum Stack it's a memorized deck stack that takes on all the properties of Wontemarie's Mamonica and Simon Ironson's stack plus it has a couple of other concepts that Woody's created to throw it into there And it's an easy stack to memorize Woody promises that after reading the first 200 pages or so You should have this deck stack memorized in 30 minutes. Alright, so what's inside? What's inside the table of contents? Well right away your forward is from Max Maven So right there, you know, it's got to be good and then in the next 200 pages or so He describes the stack and then a lot of his features and right away You're initially going to get a lot of poker tricks You're going to get something called 10 card poker deal the Texas hold exhibition Why aces the almost dead man's hand matching the cards double psychorama how the real card sharks? Octo poker octo poker to stud poker the ultimate NBC the name to blushing card Clash the gambler divines and so much more Like I said, Woody says that if you read through these first couple chapters You're going to have this deck stack memorized in no time then in the next hundred pages or so You're going to learn a new stack at the Siamese stack this Part of the book is worth the price of the book right here. This part is awesome It covers a brand new and memorized deck that some people already know but it has killer applications and The best part is it's adaptable. So let's just say you've already memorized a Ronson stack or you've already memorized my Monica Or any other deck stack these are going to be applicable chapter 4 goes into the Siamese deck You're going to learn an any card to any number. You're going to learn a two heaps trick a grandpa's poker trick a spelling trick a phone trick And just oh my gosh It's just so much more this chapter is filled with routines that would even fool magicians They're going to learn over 50 magic tricks in this book now I would say a little later Woody does introduce some I would say extra props That you would carry with you to make some of these effects work And it's going to be up to you whether you want to carry them with you But in this book Woody is seriously offering some ingenious Thinking in memorized deck stack work and in card magic work just the ideas Okay, just the ideas and theories alone this book will get you seriously thinking It'll really start pumping your brain about memorized deck work. All right, so what's it cost? What's it going to cost? It's $60. It is $60. It is up there It is one of the more pricier books, but it is a hardback book Okay, it is a hardback and it is almost 400 pages with illustrations. All right, so what do I think? What do I think I think if you already don't do a memorized deck like if you haven't memorized my Monica yet If you haven't memorized the deck stack, this is probably the one you want because this is going to be simple This is going to be easy. Like I said, it's it's certainly user-friendly It's a really good option and the Siamese Section like I said is worth the price of the book. This is a brilliant book All right So that is my review of memorandum from Woody Aragon as always I want to thank Murphy's magic supplies for allowing me to have this book so that I can do the review for you And if you would like to purchase this book for yourself, you can find it from one of your very favorite Murphy's magic dealers Thanks.
