Alot of annoying magicians keep saying the trick that fooled Houdini was the double lift. I keep seeing comments like " OMG HOW DID HOUDINI GET FOOLED BY SUCH A SIMPLE MOVE"..... When I reality the move was the Marlo Tilt. Don't you think alot more people should notice these under rated moves??? :mad:

In "Card college" the Tilt technique is atributed to Dai Vernon, also, it wasn't only the tilt, but the use of a double back card (or atleast a reversed one).
The tilt is an awesome move I don't use enough! Garrett Thomas gives some awesome tips on it in "Reel Magic Video Magazine". So what was the trick that fooled Houdini? :thinking:

it's a great technique when used properly. Daryl's work on the tilt is pretty awesome too and the believe that the subtlety of pushing cards from the middle is from Arturo de Ascanio A.K.A the Spanish professor.
