So I read "The Game" for the first time this summer and I'm pleased to say that I did learn from it.

On a number of occasions, Mystery performs magic tricks and illusions, so I looked up some simple tricks involving bottles, cigarettes and notes. This has been a hit and miss method, but then again, the magic tricks aren't amazing. My housemate has taken his magic further and actually manages to pull off some impressive illusions. Obviously, his success rate with women is higher on the field of magic.

I was wondering if anyone else out there uses magic tricks when picking up women, if not, anything similar?

I've seen the vids for using them, but havn't gotton a chance to experiment yet.
It takes to much set-up imo, while i know some simple easy and effective ones whenever i go to see a girl I get there and i go "crap i forgot (some part of the magic trick) at home". Also you have to use it at the right time, if you go up to a woman and do it right away she'll think "wow hes trying to pick me up with magic" so theres a time to do em too.

To game at your best you have to be willing to do your worst.

Play down what you do a little, ask for a volunteer bottle(or whatever prop is required), or just do them. From the beginning to ending work to build intrigue. And never reveal your secret, or do it twice (so easy to figure it out the second time). I also agree with what Char said, wait a little bit. Let her find you attractive then add icing to the cake by doing a magic trick or routine.

Personally I wouldn't use magic tricks even if they worked like a charm. It's just not my style and I wouldn't feel good about my success if I used magic tricks or gimmicks.

Oh yah forgot to mention I don't use any magic tricks but I do use a few routines, the cube, rings, one with memorization. They essentially do the same thing. Instead of a physical illusion you are making one with your words/mind. Usually not necessary in a pick up, I just have fun when doing them.
