I love it! Here's what I like to do (mind you, this is not for walk around): Bring out 4 glasses
with cards in them. Do the same routine but have the spectator pick the glass. BAM. Their card is in
it. Then, all three extra cards are blank. While they are looking at the blank cards.....did someone
say deck switch? I did. I said deck switch. Blank deck.
Seem like a familiar routine? It
is. But updated using One Shot by Sebastian.
Sebastian has a bunch of small tips and
details that are worth seeing!

This is a good idea and solves the problem of carrying around a card box for one trick or piece of a
trick. The only downside is that the switch (if one is not careful) looks like a switch. By
spending some time in mirror work and making sure not to rush the throw down of the card, I believe
this could become a thing of beauty. It will take some time, practice, and thinking; but isn't that
what we all want?

The 3 stars are for the following.
β£ About as impromptu as it gets.πππ
β Super
organic.πππ
β¦ The price. I mean, come on now! That is NOT the kind of wonderful price-tag I
am used to seeing in the magic world these days. That's enough to drive me to buy it, regardless of
what the trick actually is.πππ
β₯ They could have used a bunch of cuts/edits & a ton of
on-screen graphics in the trailer to cleverly hide the method itself, but they didn't. They chose to
listen to the magic community and create a trailer that isn't deceptive and over-the-top. πππ
The missing 2 stars are for the following:
β£ I found a necessary utility
move(finger placement, etc)to be very poorly explained.πππ
β The overall production quality
is a little wonky.πππ
β¦ You can't use just any shot glass.πππ
β₯ It definitely
helps if your audience arrived at the bar before you did.πππ

I knew all those years I spent folding cards would eventually pay off. I was actually impressed when
watching this. Any card magician knows whatβs going on. But the details is what we pay for. I can
remember using a TV remote. A card box. Or a shoe to perform this. I think he took a tool in magic
and discovered a way to dress it up more. This is something I will be using. The required move does
take practice. But there are alternatives to making it easier. Luckily for me, the MCF and I are
very familiar with each other.
For this type of card effect, I give it 5-5 stars. Very
good.

If you're looking for a "card to impossible location" effect that doesn't require much props and
that "makes sense" to laymen, then look no further! I really like this effect: it is organic.
Simple. Strong! What more can you ask for? Make use of your shot glass from the cupboard, a marker
and a deck of cards. This is definitely a "worker".

Outstanding effect with a deck of cards and a shot glass! Great teaching! It will take a little
practice (it always does!) but this effect is βmoneyβ - your audience is not expecting this!
Wonderful bar trick but it can be done just about anywhere. Some great βtipsβ and additions on the
download makes this effect highly customizable. You canβt beat the price and you wonβt beat the
impact of this little gem!!

Pretty cool but doesn't work with all shot glasses..a lot to go wrong. Kennedy and/or Clarity box
all the way.

This kid is ridiculous! Great thinking, and many possibilities. Especially with the appearing
card. A great way to produce the appearing card would be, if you can make it work, using Tony
Giorgio's holdout which was described in his card to mouth in his Genii issue.
Regardless, this is worth may times the cost.

This is a great way to do a card to impossible location. It is totally improv. I will definitely add
it in my collection of tricks to do. I can picture you can use this as an out to psychological card
forces by Peter Turner. You can also just use it as a sign card to impossible location. It is well
worth the money.
