Basically he does not explain every technique

He does explain CONCEPTS which are important

It seems like he made this for casinos and to just show case what he knows as oppose to teaching magicians

Don't get me wrong ,you will learn some nice false shuffels and you will see how he palms and switch but only quick glimps here and there.

another thing I learn is that most of us card magicians don't know anything.

and you get all the names of these techniques and why they are used and you will understand the concepts

I still want to learn more from Oritz and I will take another chance on him.I hope I can learn more from his the next video I invest in.Just don't get too excited and think your going to learn everything he teaches here

Not exactly what you'd expect Report this review

This dvd is mostly demonstrations, he does explain concepts of most of the techniques that he demonstrates but doesn't teach them in detail. Mind you, if you have prior knowledge you can learn most of these techniques by viewing this dvd over and over again. I would still recommend this dvd because it is possible to learn, and learning off this master of cards is always amazing.
