Hi all,

I am half way through learning this stack I can do all positions up to 27 and know the cards at where they are in deck. Im using the test a lot on Stackview great help.

My question is this, why do you think he came up with this stack, it is a totally random stack do you think he just liked the way the cards are in the stack or what.

Do any of you do Everybodys Lazy ?

Everybody's Lazy is excellent. I do it whenever I do mem deck work. The tamraiz stack was developed to look random yet have all the capabilites of a staystack as well as built in gambling and spelling effects. The added bonus is that the stack can be gotten into and shuffled into NDO.

I like that in the stack the ace of spades is number 7...i have found that several times when I ask for any number between 1 and 52, I will get a reply of 7...this leads perfectly into some sort of build up of how the ace of spades is the best card in gambling, and that you can control it to whatever number they say.

Umm, there's a huge book out there with many reasons as to why he developed the stack...

This stack was constructed with specific goals in mind. Read Mnemonica and this will become apparent.
