How many of these were you aware of before this video?!
Chris Ramsay me.
I only knew about the box reveal
Chris Ramsay I can only dream of pulling that hat off half as good as you do.
Errrm zero... man that is a lot of layers. Like it
Another thing about the White Lions is that David Blaine's last name is White.
Blaine is David's middle name.
Another thing with the black lions, on the jokers, if you look in the bird’s mouth, he is holding a card, on one it’s the back and the other it’s the front of the card.
Yes!
And if you remove something, an 8 D appears 😊
Chris Ramsay is my favorite Amish Magician.
CoolNotCool24 YT so stupid it’s a joke
CoolNotCool24 YT vos of the beard and the hat lol
Lmfao!
Lol
didn’t think amish people could have electricity. (i know it’s a joke)
Dude, the real magic here is that I watched this one video and suddenly a set of David Blaine's playing cards somehow ordered themselves, got shipped, and are on the way to my house. Crazy!
O.o
Same here!!!! Aaahhhh
Imagine playing poker with these cards lmao
Who's to say someone hasn't. ;)
@@bubbybumble616 It's all fun and games until you get shivved. Not speaking from experience mind you.
I hope my drunk of a father never sees this video... I used these cards to convince him that he was never going to succeed in gambling
Simon Saldana *wait what*
Simon Saldana nice
Theory 11 has a deck of cards called NPH cards........or Neil Patrick Harris cards and the whole deck it self is a puzzle and each card gives you a clue to the final puzzle. I have yet to solve it but you might get it so I thought that would be cool to see you try to solve it..... just an idea!
Studson 25 I solved it, the reward is worth it - keep trying 👍🏼
Ik I just don't know where to start
Sam O'Leary i ordered the cards, getting them in a few days. Do i still get a reward or is the “contest” already over?
the reward is super awesome and totally worth it a tad bit tricky and you have to do some digging but once you get rolling its fun.
DenizUe no idea man, the way it’s been done I image they could keep going for a long time. Not saying any more than that :)
Never thought about "hollusions"/ "stereograms" being involved, but I'm so thankful that I'm able to easily see the 3D effect in these types of images. Actually, depending on how far you are from the card, you can get different configurations. But yes, on the first card, those two lines are the deepest. I'm seeing it more as the center row of symbols, not so much the lines. So, I'd have to train myself to think in terms of lines and not symbols....at least with that deck. With the ace, I really started to pick up on it. To me, it looks like a step, but the step is deeper than the others, hence (in your description) "a wider line".
Regarding suit, the first thing I noticed was the difference in color shade in that top left corner. In fact, that's what I thought might be designating the number when you began the tutorial. Now, to me, identifying this is harder than the eye adjustment for number. Of course, it's like anything else. Just work on it enough and it will become second nature. I used to play poker for a living when I was 19-20. One of the things I taught myself (aside from reading tells from opponents), was to ID my cards by only having the very edge of the number showing. Maybe a less than 1/32" and it was again, thru sheer repetition. Back then, unless you lived in a bigger city, you had to discover things on your own. There was no internet back then.
Now I'm now wondering what differences there are between the WL-R ($12 d), the WL-B ($12 d)and the WL-SB-BL ($20 d) Aside from the obvious, of course....laymen obvious.
Excellent video Mr Ramsay! Always compelling.....
@O O narcissist
I'm gonna be honest I didn't see the lines at all
They're VERY subtle
Same
Same
Stereograms. Google it - It takes practice
😂 me neither
I used to not like the white lions at alllllll coz of their simple red design on the back, but now, it feels like the best deck 😂
Picked up a few of the White Lions tour edition when i went to see David in November. They are amazing quality and with all these hidden gems makes them one the best decks on the market!!
how is the white lions tour edition compared to regular white lions?
Same quality I would say, different jokers and ad cards but other than that the same!
is the marking system the same on the tour editon
is the marking system the same on the tour edition?
yes
Wow those messages are very subtle. That’s awesome! I’ve used marked decks and they’re subtle but these are even more hidden
I just got this deck recently. I found a much simpler way to read the lines. The half spades on the side(s) narrow it down to one or two options and the direction of the thicker line tells you exactly what the card is. For example: read the half spades on the side from bottom to top. If the 6th half spade is lighter, it means it is either a 6 or a Jack. The thicker line will always be right next to this lighter half spade. If the thicker line goes from bottom left to top right, it’s a 6. If the thicker line goes from bottom right to top left, it’s a jack. Kings are always and only the 8th half spade. Twos are always the second. An ace is always a singular corner half spade that is lighter. “Lighter” can also be described as not having a thick red line that the half spade has. Hopefully this tip helps.
They are also marked along the long edge. There is a very subtle change in the width of the line that splits the spades in half
You probably get this a lot, but your video and editing quality is some of the best I've ever seen. It's evident that you are passionate.
Kid Kittrell on this channel we have the content and the container :)
Kid Kittrell shut up!
I started to question my eyes about those line thingies.
Same
@Corby Dorian Imagine a girl moaning Corby during sex LMAO
I have had my black lions for forever but they have a white box. I got it from one of his shows.
Chris, White Lions = WIDE Lines also, not just white lines. The marking is on white lines, done by wide lines :)
David, such a crazy bastard
Blaine is brilliant.
2 years and im still not seeing those lines xDDDD
I just got them. It's VERY hard to see them at first but you will soon enough. Next step is remembering which lines mean what quickly lol
relax your eyes
Bruh...
@@Riley_187 bruh
just practice. I practiced for an hour and i can read most cards in a few seconds
He stole my font
I thought of that this morning hahaha
Lol
Lmao
I don’t get this o_O
KhOrganization
just see another chris ramsay video when he meet David
There's also some interesting optical illusions on the Jokers. Plus, it also comes with a blank card and a double-backed card, so that's cool.
I just got my hands on the White Lions Series B Red Deck, by the way. Really awesome!
"The closer you look, the less you see."
Seriously, this is just about the only video that clearly describes the marking system. Thank you for doing this video!
I’ve just finished watching all of your videos. I’m sad that I caught up to real time. This is definitely my favorite UA-cam channel.
My favorite magician is Simon Aronson, any relation? He does memorized deck magic.
White Lions were my favourite deck before, but now, I like them even more!
The minute I saw the title I went to my shelf and grabbed a deck so I could "follow along" so to speak. Merry Christmas Chris.
Caleb Smith same dude
JUST FIGURED OUT THE MARKINGS AND IT'S ACTUALLY FREAKING COOL I COULDN'T SEE IT BEFORE BUT NOW I CAN IM SO EXCITED TO USE THIS
He didnt talk about the markings on edges of the cards, the half spades are also marked
Love the Queen of spades.. such a simple trick that you can make extremely interactive, and it surprisingly gets GREAT reactions..
Awesome video, I was considering getting them just for their beauty but this definitely sells them if I wasn’t convinced before. Thanks for helping me grow my new quarantine hobby 🤣👍🏻
Nicely done Chris! Wandered across this in one of my "Enh, I'll do my work in a few, need to look at this, and that, and..." I am an utterly NON-magic using/capable middle aged lady who simply loves pro's, and pro's that have deep mystery to them. Not the Cris Angel fake mystery, but Blaine works just fine for me on that. Plus? I find knowing some of the secrets seriously helps in my enjoyment of the tricks being used. I can watch for gives, and sleight of attitude used to distract the mark, etc. Doesn't hurt me or my enjoyment at all to know the secrets... Love the tricks even more watching a pro do them. Cheers!
My name is Indigo 🤔 am I a david Blaine reveal?
Indigo Basile someday.. just keep waiting..
that kirito profile pic though
Actually, someone has a video of your birth, and if you watch it, I think you'll be shocked about who delivered you...
This doesn't sound right
^^^^is this your word
Lol I noticed the corners before the lines and the lions face before the lady 😎😂
Is no one gonna talk about how good all his video's production quality is ?
So, like most regular people who only watch but don't practise magic, I'd never heard of "card marking" before.
This blew my mind! I could actually see the lines :)
New to the channel and cardistry! I've been binging your videos, and love learning from you!
- much LA love
Super cool dude. I am glad you did a reveal of the marking system on David's cards. I've always thought those cards were super awesome and my personal favorites....fun fact....the queen of spades that is in a regular bicycle rider back deck....is holding the 6 of spades. Not sure if many folks knew that....just thought u might enjoy knowing that in case you didn't. Have a good day. Thanks for the video.
I thought u were gonna make a joke when you said to look at the Ace of Spade's chest.
I'm all about the order these cards come in. A lethal weapon indeed. Hands off miracles abound
i nearly blew out my brain trying to read the lines
I ordered a few white lions black label decks last week. Can't wait to get em.
Know i need to get a deck of white lions. Merry "Chris"tmas
Ha you get it? That was so fun to me
Parles francais mon ami ;)
Wooooah I never knew they were marked that way. The white lions are double marked I guess? Because you can determine the suit + value from just the spades, without using the lines.
Love your videos Chris!! And I really like the outro music!
I was not aware of any of them. But now I need to get me some white lions.
Merry Christmas man, thank you very much for all your effort making your videos, for me the theory and your thoughts about the craft are priceless, thank you again and greetins from Monterrey México
All I know of the stack they come in is that it's called the Tamariz stack. I don't know what that stack is, though.
i just happened to click on this video... one year later to the day lol
Also look on the left side of the card backs, one of those half spades should be lighter than all the others. This can help you narrow down the number, but usually it leaves you with two options. Hint: (count up to the light spade from the bottom of the card)
Dude you deserve everything good plus more that comes your way. You are awesome bro. Love your videos. Thanks for making great content for us 👍
I don't really comment on UA-cam videos but man hats off to your hardwork for spotting all this stuff,I hope we see you on a show one day doing magic. Love from India
I've got these exact White Lions. Tried seeing the lines, can't really do it. Need to persist!
Edit: actually you're wrong on this one, Chris. It's not the lines, it's the half spades on the sides. You have to start counting from the bottom and find the lightest one. I.e. if it's the bottom one, it's 2. Second from the bottom - 3, etc. I'll let you figure out the 8 and up :)
Cypher I see what you're talking about now... When I look at back of card and look for white lines I can see bolder white lines but the lines that look bold to me don't always match up to which ones are suppose to be the bold lines.. So I can kinda see the way Chris is explaining but I do see what you are saying too. If you look at the half spades counting from the bottom like you said, the line that runs down the center is less bold on one compared to the rest.
Also I was thinking white lions name came from telling "white lies" magicians are lying to you but they are small white lies. And so if you are lying or lyin or lion to someone about your trick your telling a white lie. Lying sounds kinda like lion.
I could be totally wrong, that was just my take on the name.
Cypher what yo are saying is true because there is two lines in the negative space of the spades i.e exactly what Chris is saying. You are wrong here my friend. That other kid that made a tutorial saying what you are is wrong also. Keep looking
The lines are also there, although at 7:05 I think he accidently draws the top red line through the center, but it should be up one level instead.
The line distance looks all the same to me.
@@igniteice same;(
thats will make white lion my favourite deck , maybe
I can't, for the life of me, see the lines that stand out from the rest
If your eyes are in focus, you won't see them. It's pretty odd that way. Keep practicing.
Chris, my family situation isn’t the best at the moment but your videos make me feel better and when that Outro song hits I feel just a little bit happier.
Merry Christmas Ramfam! ...and Chris
Chris there is a way better marking system with the white lions and black lions. Look at the half spades on the very left sides
I don't see it (on phone). What is it?
Today is Christmas eve eve today 2019
Watching your vids while practicing flourishes = my new weekend tradition 😀
every video of urs always inspires me to be a magician .. tho :v im having exams rn
n i just noticed its the 666th comment
anyways love you man
I'm in love with your color correction.
Crazy russian hacker: BOOM!! I LOOV IT. WOOOOOW!!
I love all the Lions too! I knew about everything except for the lines. That's one I've never heard about before. Awesome vid brother! Thanks Chris!
Actually Chris, the BLACK LIONS are marked aswell even though it only says Mark Stutzman!
Yep! Thought that was implied
Chris Ramsay I can’t decide whether to get cherry casino or black lions
what is a reverse deck.
Chris...I am 52 years old and you are making me interested in this stuff. I don't even know why I started watching one of your videos...but one, your videos are well, done...you are pretty funny/entertaining...but also you are great at showing the depth of this stuff. A world a never really knew about, cared about, and now I find myself just practicing basic card handing. Getting pretty good at the basics of controlling the top and bottom cards of a deck! Fun, fun, fun. Keep up the good videos. Non sequitur ...what camera do you record with?
I want he white lions so bad but I can't afford them because of the exchange rate in South Africa
And also because I'm 13
But either way as long as someone else can entertain me with them it's fine and that's why Chris Ramsay is awesome
He is my role model and I have been practicing your tricks for about 6 months and I have been using a R5 pack of cards which is less than 50 cents I believe
Pls like so my role model can see how he is an awesome Inspiration
Keegan Altern exchange rates are also crazy up here in Kenya.
jay jr I feel ur trouble man
Keegan Altern but the magic lives on. Is it easier to get magic books in South Africa?
jay jr no I can barely find any
I think the seven of diamonds on the tuck case is an easter egg of Ed Marlo, since his favourite card was the seven of diamonds.
👏👏👏❤❤❤❤❤❤
Kinda funny I was never into magic but now I have kids and I learned a few simple card tricks to do with the kids now I find myself watching these videos and trying new tricks to show my kids lol keep the videos coming 😁
DID YOU YOURSELF NOT TELL US ABOUT THE ORDER THE DECK COMES IN IF YOU CUT IT SPECIALLY?
In one video of yours?
Yes he did. I believe it was in the video where he compares the Criss Angel cards
Buttons Q yup
DR. UJJAL Misra sorry for the late reaction. Can you link me or tell me what it was?
@@Magetank4445 The video is titled "DAVID BLAINE VS CRISS ANGEL"
My gf got me some black lions (actually blue) and I missed these! That was awesome. Thanks!! Makes already fantastic to handle cards even better.
Yo! Do you know something interesting Chris?
Emmmm, No
Let me tell you....He stole my font!
I'm so happy I bought these now. I always had a feeling but I couldn't solve it. Thank you so much!
There are two markings
Aemilius Fuentes explain us ?
Eventhough I don’t do magic, I thoroughly enjoy all your vids... great job...
Who's here from The Joe Rogan Experience?
Wait what happened?
Today is my Christmas Eve, and I get about 65 decks tomorrow!! So excited!! keep up the great work
Hey chris u should do a tutorial of c3 on your next tutorial
Sandra Julian you have to buy that
Please do it
My grandfather used to travel from his hometown, Glasgow down to London & back. He'd go first class.
He had some great card tricks, slight of hand etc he'd make small talk, this was in the 50's & 60's when people used to talk to each other on trains. On good days he'd make some decent money & mum got a present & some sweets perhaps. He would rinse money from the people he'd meet with his tricks.
He taught me "find the queen" the three card trick people do on street corners, bars, parties. I used to do it at school winning some extra cash for sweets, arcade games & things kids like to spend on ✌🏼😁
Now I just do it for fun or to show off.
Happy days & memories.
I'm late :-( There's no way he wuld reply ( sounds of silence for the background music)
I'd like to see reviews of other marked decks, this one deck is really intricate and almost unnoticable!
first?
yep lucky
aye chris pls pin this
wtf nickspics I know you lmfao how did I spot this
haha! im a big fan of chris ;D
that fun. make me wonder how many people bought cards used as normal cards or did own tricks had no idea all stuff in them.
I love your magic and you have inspired me I am only 12 years old but I now do tones of shows thanks to you
Thanks for this video. I was debating which cards to look into and you my friend have made it easy for me.
Hey Chris! Just bought your "Knights" cards today! Both classic and the red ones. They are really classy and the quality is fantastic! My chess fan inside me is having a good time today! Thank you!
The expressions at the end of all of your videos are always awesome. You are awesome. Your life is awesome. People who watch your videos must be awesome.
The white lions are also marked in an other way, on the sides of the back designs you will be able to see changes in the spades.
Black lions are still marked also under the sticker on the tuck case of the black lions is and 8 of diamonds
My way of finding the card value is looking at the other side ... cool hint there ... works everytime
Hey Chris Ramsay I found your videos very interesting first found your puzzles solving videos on a fb friends facebook after the first video I was hooked watching your UA-cam videos. I was wounding if you can please do a video on
1. Your top 5 marked and readers decks
2.how to read your top 5marked and reader decks also can you put where you can get all your top 5 marked and readers decks at?
3. What are your top 5 Bike Cycle marked and reader decks and why ?
4.What marked and readers decks are good to start out with as beginners and why ?
Great Video - I really enjoyed it. I definitely want these cards. Sterograms on the back!! Brilliant!
OMG I just purchased my first deck. I got the White Lions series B red. I already have so many other expensive hobbies. I know I'm going to get hooked.
I’m getting these cards and I’m glad I’m learning these secrets. Have a merry Christmas
You're probably talking about the 'Si Stebbins stack'. Not that big of a secret, however, I too am a magician, just not a pro. It was a hobby of mine for many years. These days I tend to work at factories that, strangely, require some of the talents I've picked up from that hobby. Such as manual dexterity and attention to details. I mainly watch your channel for the puzzle solving videos. Those are greatly interesting to me, but quality puzzles these days are so expensive. Anyway, love your channel. Take care. Cheers.
I’m an artist, as is one of my step fathers - Eric Evans who’s been doing street magic professionally for decades.
I think these kinds of subtle details are much easier to spot as Artists. Other friends who are visual artists agree.
Still very very cool!
You are my inspiration sir.....just keep making videos....your channel is best place for emerging magicians...we love you sir
I seen a very old set of marked Bicycle cards once for sale in a flea market and on the back where the spokes would be that's where they were marked. One of the spokes on the bicycle wheels would be missing. It was not very noticeable and i really had to study them for a long time before i caught it. I wish i could have bought them but they wanted $250 for them.
This is Exceptional amongst your library!
Great video man!
Thanks for this video just ordered the black lions. Hope the marked system works the same on them.
