{"product_id":"all-in-by-allan-ackerman-and-john-lovick-1","title":"All In by Allan Ackerman and John Lovick","description":"\u003cp\u003eThree decades of card magic wisdom from the legend Allan Ackerman have been crammed into a stunning two-book extravaganza from Vanishing Inc. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAll In\u003c\/strong\u003e boasts over 400 pages filled with top-notch material from one of the most respected card magicians on the planet. You’ll find nearly 90 tricks and sleights jam-packed into these glorious hardcover tomes. Each entry showcases Allan's remarkable ability to pinpoint those little nuggets of genius that transform a decent card trick into something truly memorable (and likely to leave your audience scratching their heads). \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOutside of his iconic book \u003ci\u003eLas Vegas Kardma (1994)\u003c\/i\u003e, most of Allan's recent gems have surfaced as limited-run lecture notes (which, let’s be honest, are now like hunting for unicorns) and the odd video. Now, for the first time, you can scoop up all his latest brilliance in two beautifully linen-bound volumes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThanks to the literary wizardry of John Lovick, \u003cstrong\u003eAll In\u003c\/strong\u003e is not just a treasure trove of tricks, but a pleasure to read. The material has been updated, polished, and comes with stunning full-colour photographs that might just make you weep (or at least consider taking up photography).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs you dive into these books, you'll quickly grasp that Allan's sleight-of-hand prowess is only matched by his extensive knowledge of card subtleties and mathematical wizardry. He’s crafted a delightful selection of card tricks with smooth handling that caters to magicians of all walks of life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach book is neatly divided into sections: techniques and tricks. In the tricks section, you'll stumble upon polished takes on classics, like a no-set-up version of MacDonald's Aces and a Koran-style double thought-of card routine that doesn't require a marked deck (because who needs extra gimmicks?). But let’s be real—the section on Memorized Deck Magic and the “Thirty-Minute Memorized Deck” is bound to spark some serious chatter among magicians at your local pub for ages to come. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf you fancy honing some versatile moves, you’ll want to dive into the techniques section. Allan's \"HP (Hidden Packet) Maneuver\" is a clever little number for controlling, loading, and forcing cards that will definitely earn a spot in many a magician’s repertoire. His slip shuffle technique, which can handle up to 20 cards, and the brilliantly deceptive \"Rhythm Count\" false count are other highlights that will have your mates asking for tips (good luck with that!).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eProduced by Vanishing Inc., the world's leading producer of magic books (seriously, they’re like the rock stars of magic literature), the \u003cstrong\u003eAll In\u003c\/strong\u003e volumes are crafted to match the brilliance of their contents. They come in a stunning slipcase that you’ll want to show off to anyone naïve enough to ask about your collection. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen it comes to creative card magic, Allan Ackerman has truly gone all-in. If you're serious about card magic, a copy of \u003cstrong\u003e*All In*\u003c\/strong\u003e is an absolute must-have!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vanishing Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56476769976644,"sku":"ALLIN","price":99.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0943\/1826\/4644\/files\/76486-full_5a367133-7b37-4cba-9728-9db343bda0e2.png?v=1779988521","url":"https:\/\/www.handpickedmagic.com\/products\/all-in-by-allan-ackerman-and-john-lovick-1","provider":"Hand Picked Magic ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
