How to approach tables and show set up 1&2

Some great advice here Johnny!

Mentalism truly is a great thing, especially for adults. That's why I like using peeks instead of having them take out a card in many cases. They believe that they are merely thinking of a card, which makes things much more deceptive.

I also find card tricks to work best after another effect, that usually use some common props that are lying around. Otherwise, people may have a tendency to think, "oh a typical card trick". The envelopes are a nice touch. Just wondering if anyone saw the envelopes and asked "you trying to sell us something bro?"

Also, do you mind expanding on why you have a deck that can be destroyed while you have one that doesn't for those who may wonder why? I'm assuming that you have tricks that require a full deck or something to that extent. But if you have another reason, I would love to know too
