In some memory competitions there is even prize money to be won.
Lorayne or any of his students in a memory competition. I can memorize a number with 250 digits in five minutes, a deck of cards in 40 seconds - and I do not have to use a single technique, that has not been known by people at least 400 years ago! I would love to compete against Mr. Lorayne after nearly every post I write on memory. Is it because you are paid by him? Maybe this would explain why I get insulting e-mails by someone working for Mr. Magicfish, why do have to write, that you think Harry Lorayne is great about after every second post? On a good day, I memorize a deck of cards in about 30 seconds using this technique. Within the "inner thoughts" I published my technique, which was published (for free) by the German memory-athlet Steffen Bütow about four years ago. But if you like to memorize a deck of cards in less than a minute or even 40 seconds (after a lot of training) it might be helpful to read what experienced memorizers do (just small changes to old and basic technqiues).

If you like to learn how to memorize a deck of cards in two minutes, any of the known systems will help you and Lorayne maybe is the first one, who ever published the technique specialized for playing cards (still using the same, 2000-years old. If you like to, you could learn all the techniques you need for great memory effects from the books of Socrates or Keos! Lorayne claims to be the inventor of a lot of techniques, that have been known for ages - because the major basics of all the memory techniques we are talking about have been invented/found by ancienct Greek people more than 2000 years ago. It is sad, that nearly all people dealing with memory training on a really high level are very disappointed by Loraynes statements about memory and memory-performers. He would have no chance at a memory competiton. Lorayne is to often overstating his success and minling memory effects and "pure memory". Are you kidding me? You've obviously never seen Lorayne work for the paying public. Do not confuse memory effects with true memorising. This is a bold statement but O'Brien's is to Lorayne's what Lorayne's is to rote memory. There is no way that you can memorise a deck of cards in order ,through the Lorayne system, in less than a minute. The O'Brien approach (outlined in How To Develop A Perfect Memory) can boost the Lorayne approach several times over. The O'Brien book is a strong adjunct to the Lorayne (or Feignale, as Scott pointed out ) material. Scott Cram has invaluable performing tips buried within his blog and websites. Tony Buzan wrote about memory, and organised the memory competitions in the UK and US, but as far as I know he is not a performer. A good source of cheap used Lorayne books is through If the Memory Book did not do it for you, you may try Good memory, Good student, which bears great many practical examples of applying the method to academic material.
Stick with Lorayne, if only for the fact that he is the livelier teacher in print.
