In Step 4, Card Mentalism, Richard Osterlind teaches his crowning achievement, “The Breakthrough Card System”, with the most comprehensive and thorough instruction ever put on video. You will learn every aspect of his ground- breaking, revolutionary stack as well as his insights on the use of cards in Mentalism. As a bonus, Richard also teaches every detail of his new “Hands Off” effect which has stunned every magician who has seen it!

TODAY, Richard Osterlind is offering you an unprecedented lesson on mind-reading with a deck of cards. Some of it for the first time EVER. Don't miss it.

Here's what mentalists are saying:

"I have been a mentalist/magician working for 20 years. Anyone who is serious about there craft will buy not only this but the entire series. Great product worth every penny!" -Anthony Spinelli

"Listening to Mr. Osterlind is like listening to an old college professor who is skilled at breaking everything down. He helps you to grasp a better understanding." -Mister Xman

"I already have most of Richard's DVDs, yet I learned new things. Thank you, Richard!" -Bill O'Connell

"Watching this helped me with some issues I was having in my own routine I put together" -Nat Lawson

"Very thorough,taught at a good pace. You will need time to understand the reasons behind his method ,which he has mastered over the years ,and get the technique down, to where it is flawless. But I really think it will be worth the time spent." -Jeff Chambers

"His biggest gift may be his ability to explain in practical, down-to-earth language how to become a legendary mentalist." -Maxwell Murphy

For over 40 years, Richard Osterlind has been pioneering new ways to read minds, hypnotize, bend metal and more. He's considered one of the living legends of mentalism.

Aimed at serious students of the art, Osterlind's 13 Steps is a MODERN look at the fundamentals of mentalism based on Richard's lifetime of experience. It has some obvious similarities to the classic text, Corinda's 13 Steps, but is an entirely independent course based on Richard's own experience.

PROFESSIONALS: If you use cards, or want to start, there's no better time than today. Osterlind has been mastering his craft for 40 years, and today he's generously teaching in more detail than ever before. It's truly a must-have for any serious student of magic or mentalism.

if you have bought osterlinds' live this is a repeat and I guess 13 steps other than the hypnosis is also going to be a repeat I just want to inform this because I bought both so it was a waste of money. Its better to buy osterlinds penguin live rather than buying 13 steps for $19 each

lack complete instrutions - i.e., pdf Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on May 31st, 2015
I buy magic videos for the instructional value of the material taught and not for my own entertainment and/or amusement. Osterlind instructs Lessen 4, Card Mentalism, by often referring to his “The Breakthrough Card System (Anniversary Edition)” instructional manual. Even though Osterlind finds it necessary to refer to this manual in the video, he fails to supply a pdf version of the manual to the customer that buys this video “Instant Download.” If one chooses to spend hours studying this download to figure out what Osterlind is attempting to teach, then buy the download – I found the video only instructions to be worthless in terms of instructional value for the time investment required to learn this material, especially when a pdf manual exists.

a closing effect Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on May 16th, 2015
if al that you got was the lat trick on the download your money would be more than well spent. This is a great, great, trick. It will close your show with a bang and leave the crowd wondering how in the world this could have happened. the rest of the download is wonderful, but this trick is mind-blowing. For the price of the download you re getting a gem that will never go out of style.
Buy it, But it. But it. You will ever regret it.

no breakthrough for me Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on May 20th, 2015
Outside of a couple of simple but very good effects, this download is a description of Osterlind's Breakthrough System, which produces a random-looking deck that can be used to identify the next card starting anywhere in the deck. This convoluted system is inferior IMHO to a standard memorized stack (I use the Aronson stack), partly because the latter allows you to know instantly any card at any position in the deck. So besides Osterlind's tricks, you can do other more powerful effects, like Ortiz's Zen Master, with any memorized stack.

Excellent Mentalism With Cards Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on May 15th, 2015
Richard Osterlind explains his ground-breaking break through card system, which is easily worth the price of the download. I already use it, but still enjoyed the refresher and appreciated Richard's handling tips and effects. It's hard to go wrong buying anything that Richard Osterlind produces.

One of my Best purchases Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on May 17th, 2015
Took me only about 1-2 hours to quickly master this principal, but it was well worth it. It's powerful as it is, but I can see combining this with other effects such as some of the cell phone tricks and invisible deck to knock it out of the park. No regrets here. A must buy.

Richard is the Best !!! His hands off routine using Jumbo Cards, (Also featured on the Sapphire CD set) is a real honest fooler. I was able to see him perform this at the conclusion of his latest Lecture at Penguin. NOW yoU CAN Learn how to do this, as well as learning a memorized deck stack. Great instruction from the Master on His Breakthru Card System. Nice job Richard !! See you soon, my Friend. Rick Gaffney, from Cincinnati (Norwood), Ohio.

Awesome "tool" Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on May 16th, 2015
This is not so much an effect, but a tool that you can use both for mentalism and magic tricks. Very clever system. I just wish a pdf would have been included. Now you have to make notes while watching the video to really get everything. Once you understand the system it's easy to remember the rules. Will probably take some time and practice to speed up everything, but it's workable even if you're not that fast.

Only four star, add a pdf and I'll add a star :).
