"He likes magic, he likes good magic, and he likes sharing good magic." - Jeremiah Zuo

What will he teach?
The Contest: Poker Players Picnic REDUX by Ed Oschmann/Tom Dobrowolski
Hana Ho Card by Curtis Kam - With a pedigree that includes Michael Weber and Curtis Kam, Tom has honed this trick into a masterpiece. "Hana Ho" means "Do it Again!" in Hawaiian. And Hawaii magician Curtis Kam uses this simplified moving hole effect to answer that call. It's a quick encore to any effect using a signed card that transforms that card into something just a little more special for the lucky person who gets to keep it.
Naked Deck Opener/Wait? What?? by Trent Ketchmark/Tom Dobrowolski - The perfect opener to a card or close up set. A blank deck becomes instantly printed with faces and backs. Very fun, simple, visual magic and a variation where a card is selected, the deck turns blank, faces and backs reappear, and the card is found! At the end you can hand out the deck!
Neither Short-Sighted nor Mad by John Carey - John's great take on Tamariz’ classic “Neither Blind nor Silly”. This one, like so much of John’s brilliant material, is SO much fun to perform!
Away We Go by Tom Dobrowolski - A no-fuss and direct handling for a selected “cards across.”
Jim Ryan's Last Trick by Tom Dobrowolski/Jim Ryan - From Tom's first lecture, this is an absolutely GREAT opener based on two of Jim Ryan's classics, The Portal.
Increasing the Odds by Patrick Flanagan - One simple, strong, entertaining demonstration in “cheating at cards” that you can use to lead into another routine or as a stand alone effect.
Misdirection:The Way of The Monkey by David Kuraya - David sent me a clip of this strange and wonderful effect and I HAD to have it for the notes!
Something Borrowed, Something New by Jack Carpenter - You’ll be doing some amazing visual magic with very little effort and a freely selected card. You’ll love this!
Whitewall by Jeff Prace - A wonderfully simple concept, limited only by your imagination, that turns your iPhone/Smartphone into an even more magical device. Heck, it’s so simple even I can do it!
What You “Wynnn” in Vegas, Stays in Vegas by Tom Dobrowolski - Dubbed semi-automatic coin magic by Curtis Kam (Mr. “Palms of Steel”). With just 3 coins you hit the Jackpot and then just as quickly hit the road, busted out. You’ll learn a few easy moves and displays that will make you look like you have Curtis Kam “Palms of Steel”.
BBQ Ribs Three Coins Across by Jeremiah Zuo - More semi-automatic coin magic. It is a simple handling of the 3 Fly/Visible Coins across which maximizes each magical moment by reducing the number of coins in the hands during each phase.
AND...
The REAL Theory 11 Magic Theory Summarized in 11 Words by Tom Dobrowolski - Yep, Tom’s condensed magic theory down to 11 well-chosen words!! Agree or disagree, you’ll want to hear this!
