Just check out his popular videos and see for yourself and be more specific when you say that I didn't notice his tricks.
You should watch The Amazing Randi. Or Fool Us (There are mentalists on there who admit they are just magicians, not claiming powers).
ALL mentalism is fake, just tricks. Just because you (I should say we, because I don't know how it's done either) don't understand how the trick is done does not make it a real power. That's part of being a good magician, making up a great trick and keeping it a secret!
But I promise you some other magician or mentalist somewhere knows how it is done, and can replicate it, and will honestly tell you it's a trick.
Oh, what I was going to say is that James Randi offered a Million dollars to anyone who could demonstrate real powers under controlled lab conditions.
Why hasn't this fellow gone and claimed his easy million if he's got real powers?
The answer: because he hasn't got any real powers, and he knows his trick(s) will be discovered under lab testing conditions.
Here, check out a debunking video from the famous Mentalists himself:
