For a long time, my dream was to be able to reveal a thought of pin code, without the spectator appearing to give anything away. I read everything I could get my hands on that was relevant. I have always loved working with prop-less techniques, but when I examined it from all angles, I just couldn’t find anything that felt as clean as the vision in my head.


Along the way, I started to develop my own prop-less techniques that enabled me to slowly break through the limits of what could be achieved with what was already available. I realised that as well as taking me closer to my dream revelation, I was also building up a toolkit of prop-less techniques that could be applied in a whole range of different circumstances. Mavoch is the result of the journey that has overtaken my thought process for over a year. Within these pages, you will learn each of the techniques in that toolbox, and ultimately how they can be put together to form a super powerful prop-less pin divination. Three versions are presented, but in many ways, this book is as much about the journey as the final destination- and what a journey it was.


Included are my breakthrough prop-less two-digit number reveal, two versions of my spectator as mind reader number routine, as well as a whole range of other new techniques including (amongst others) the Eureka Principle, the Corridor Ploy and three ways of discovering a thought of single digit.


The issue with many number-based routines is that they feel far too procedural or involve lengthy mathematical calculations on the part of the spectator. As my philosophy in mentalism is to make it easy for the participant, this was one of my conditions in the creative process for this book. The result are the routines inside- all of these are understandable, making sense and, above all, entertaining for your sitter.


Even though they are easy for the participant, the routines will require some work and dedication. However, if you are willing to put in the work, then it is totally worth it.


Even if you are absolutely terrified of numbers and maths in mentalism, I'm positive you will find value within these pages. The mathematics, presentation and subtleties – when done properly - make the effects feel natural to your spectators, as well as keep any suspicion away from the principles in play.
