Masterclass 2: May 10, 2026 (4pm ET | NYC Time)
GOAT Opener
One at a time, you use the Jokers to find the four Aces. Once all four Aces are found, you put the deck away, and the Jokers visually switch places with the Aces!
Queens
A two-phase Sandwich routine where a selected card appears between the two Queens. But just when you thought you knew where this was going, the two Queens are lost in the pack and reappear on either side of the selected card.
Miracle Folds and Applications
Alex dives into unique ways to fold, load, and switch folded cards. Youâll also learn a number of applications, includingâŠ
Ambitious Color
After showing a paperclipped blue card, Alex performs a visual Ambitious Card routine with a red deck. The big twist is that in the end, the signed selection from the Ambitious Card routine becomes the folded paperclipped card!
The Paperclip Mystery
A folded piece of paper thatâs been on the table the entire time becomes the spectator's signed card.
Torn and Restored Card
An incredibly clean handling of the Torn and Restored Card done in your participantâs hands.
The Prediction Miracle
You start by predicting the exact card that your participant will cut to. They sign their card, but then you repeat the effect - this time in reverse. Their signed card is lost back in the pack, but when they unfold the prediction once again, itâs now their signed card.
Delayed Fold
This is Alexâs version of folded Card to Wallet. Even if you donât have a magic wallet, this is an incredibly clean way of making a chosen card appear in an impossible location.
