I totally agree with you if we paid for the app we should have the right to perform it however we want and we should have the right to put the performance on the internet! Really liked the tip for the one ahead about crossing the word !!

Great video, exactly the kind of stuff that is helpful. One Ahead is great.👍

There's another really nice way of doing a one-ahead for say a name/place routine; you openly write name on the top half of a billet, do a double turnover so that you are now writing on a different billet which has place pre-written on the back, you then fold the billet into quarters so what you wrote and the category is inside the billet and the outside is blank. That way you can keep the billets on show at your finger tips the whole time and you don't really need to switch them.

I think your BTS reveal was fine it came across to me like you'd got lucky and were disappointed to get it so easily, but I agree mindreading is much better when the audience believes that you are going to fail because it almost rules out that you got a peak.

For me people who try to stop people from posting live performances on the internet are usually doing it because they want to mislead people into thinking a trick is better than it is.

Great video. I like to do double cross at large parties but with cigarette ashes. I like to find a couples, and tell them to think about the first time they met. Load up ashes on my middle finger. Do the plant. Make a fist. Have the other hold their hand out and tell them to think about the first time blah blah blah, really play it up as I openly rub the ashes from the other persons hand, other opens their fist. Big reveal. It hits pretty good specially around a bunch of people. Got tears a few times. Happy ones though.
