[@glebrao]

[@OBrienMagic]

Thank you for watching!!!

wow i like the strolling magic table idea on wheels,that would be fun,i wonder where i can find one,and really light to carry? Hmmmm,i was carrying a bag,green military bag with all of my effects.

[@OBrienMagic]

Not sure what they are called. Like a podium almost but on wheels haha Your carry sounds great!

I go along the lines of the three sets of three for my walk around, I have a belt pouch with deck of cards, Adam Wilbur's In case of emergency, a deck of black face cards all for my ambitious card, Professors nightmare set of ropes to do my version of fiber optics, chop cup w/collapsible metal straw as a wand, charming Chinese challenge, Garrett Thomas's stand up Monte, fast and loose chain and coins, couple of silks and TT , your purse frame and sponge balls, and overdraft in Z fold wallet. As backup I have a couple other card packet tricks I can switch out with the stand up Monte. Only fast and loose by Pop Haydn needs a table. I have the TCC Close up carry case to carry it to the gig and home :)

[@OBrienMagic]

Such a wonderful set of effects!!! The carry bag for your belt and box for transit is smart!

[@christopherkram4935]

@@OBrienMagic thank you, just wanted to drop in that even in my walk your training with your purse frame allows me to keep it out using it to pull out my other props and keep it in play.

[@jrwmagic]

I carry a regular deck & 1 gimmicked deck (choose on venue), my phone & my wallet (usually nexus)

[@OBrienMagic]

Sometimes that is all you need! A phone is like a deck of cards too! You can easily have 20 effects ready to go with just a phone.

[@jrwmagic]

There are some amazing effects you can do with a phone

How would one approach a house party set for 2 hours?

Hey Michal. Nice video and the right message i would say. Less is more. Everybode has to think about the tricks in his pocket and get the most out of less. I think its always a savety thing why we all put to much stuff in our pockets 🤣

[@OBrienMagic]

Less is more for sure!

[@thomasboguszewski7288]

What effects do you do with Pokémon and Yugioh cards? That’s my people!

[@OBrienMagic]

@@thomasboguszewski7288 glad you asked! You can check out my magic using YGO and PKMN at obrienmagic.com. Plenty of performance vids and what not there too!

[@westonding8953]

Do you ever have difficulty remembering who you performed for? Have you ever unintentionally performed an “nonreplayable” trick twice for someone?

[@OBrienMagic]

I am terrible with remembering names, but pretty good with remembering faces! So no, not in the same day. Haha I have performed for people months later without realizing it tho!

[@westonding8953]

@@OBrienMagic does this factor into the B and C sets of performance routines?

[@aaronpaulmagic]

For me, less is more.
