Cool post refnulf, you're right. Collecting playing cards is not really the point here, it is all about practice and perfecting your skills...Nothing wrong with collecting playing cards as a hobby, but I personally think it has nothing to do with magic. Magic is all about practising, and performing. Just use the ordinary bycycle deck will do. I personally think, we don't need fancy and expensive stuff like black tiger etc to perform good magic effects..in fact, the simpler the better. Well of course, if you can affort them, go for it. The reason why I don't use them is because people will think they're gaffed. I would say, stick to something that doesnt look too fancy, after all magic is all about simplicity. I think it is ok to use split spades, ghost (not the black ones), but in US, ordinary Bicycle playing cards are identical to most of them. If ppl see these cards behave in a different manner, they'll shock! To them it's magic!

beginner here...where should i start? why is magic trick must use bicycle deck?

quality of the cards. u will know after u try em

not necessarily true.

I find the rummy king 001s handle just nice for cuts and sleights.

The only problem is that they don't last. But for Rm1.20 per deck, this is something you can afford to waste.

where to get rummy king 001s playing card ?

it's a local deck. Gotta ask around.

Opened Jerry Nugget for sale.. only used twice.. condition good ! red & blue available !

nice for cuts and sleights.. but just not as nice as bicycle.. and also, for sure it doesnt fan as good as bicycle

depends on what you use them for i suppose.

EDIT: you can still fan with the rummys, probably just not as good as the tallys/bikes.
