Hi everyone. My life is all about cards. UNO cards and some other sports cards during my childhood. Poker cards for blackjack games and magic in my teenage. Plastic decks for poker games in my early 20s. Credit Cards all the way. :off:
Yes, i'm a freelance underground poker player now. Awaiting for the day to go pro. Have been doing a lot of investments which generates a good amount of passive income allowing me to pursue my dream and interest.
Yes, i got in touch with magic 14 years ago through my uncle. My uncle is a street magician in Thailand. Not like those street magicians we see on tv. But rather, operating a mobile magic store in Patpong. For those who don't know, Patpong is the red light district in Bangkok. He will come back to Sg during Chinese New Year and he will always perform for us and will also teach us a trick or 2. But that ended very soon due to some family conflicts and from there, my hobby comes to a pause.
Many years later, met a friend in a pub and started my route to magic again. I uses all sorts of funny and weird looking decks for my performance. I do a lot of magic using normal decks with sleight of hands, but i occasionally uses gimmicked decks on the right audience to spice up the routine.
The above seems rather long for an introduction. I will stop here for now and continue throughout my days here if you guys are interested. I hope i will be able to contribute some useful stuffs to the board.
:rolleyes:
