MyMagic eNewsletter #955
August 14, 2021
A while ago I introduced you to the highly secretive Negative Stripper decks. Many of you purchased them and a short while later, other companies tried to copy them, which is not easy for people who are not experts in their use.
To read my original newsletter about them where I explain what they are and how they work go: HERE
What I briefly alluded to back then is that the Negative Stripper I offered is nicknamed an N deck, but it is really an N3 deck.
The N3s stand for 3-way which allow you to find three different cards, in this case the Aces, Kings and Queens.
Today you will be introduced to the even more secretive N4s and N5s. Which are even more difficult to make correctly.
The N4s are 4-way decks which allow you to also find the Jacks and the N5s are 5-way decks which allow you to find all the Royal Flush cards 10s, Js, Qs, Ks, and As. The N5s allow you to control 20 out of the 52 cards in a deck.
We have a new video tutorial for the N-Strippers that includes the instructions for the N4s and N5s. If you previously purchased an N-Stripper deck from us the video tutorial in your MyMagic media library has been upgraded to the new 20-minute tutorial.
Although no routines are taught on the tutorial, imagine being able to hand the deck to a spectator to shuffle as much as they like and in any way they like. You then have them name a high card (10, J, Q, K, or A). After they name it, you proceed to find all the cards of the named value using cuts and shuffles. Can it get better than that if you want to show off your card handling skill?
►N-Stripper Decks:
For a very long time the N-Stripper Deck, also known as a Negative Stripper, has been a closely held secret among card cheaters and very few advanced card magicians.
Unlike any other type of deck that shares part of its name, these cards can be shuffled and cut by the spectator in any way they like. They can even be washed and turned as they do in casinos.
After all the shuffling and cutting you can strip out the Aces, the Kings, Queens, Jacks, and tens.
You will get a precision deck of Bicycle Cards that has been hand-gaffed by Steph. In addition to the cards, you will get a 20-minute instructional video by Steph and Meir Yedid where they show you how to use the very special decks.

►Silver M Ring:
The Sterling Silver M Ring is worn by many magicians and mentalists. If you look through some magic books or even videos you will see many well-known magicians and mentalists wearing them.
The ring design which resembles the letter M when cut in half and flattened has also been used as a holdout device because of the pointy edges. You can easily stick a card, a coin, a poker chip, etc… and have the ring hold it in place.

Stay happy, Meir
