Great explanation by Dan. Very thorough. Writeup and promo video a bit misleading in there is a "move" that is not shown or mentioned. And the "gimmick" is one you've owned since you were 12 years old. I feel a bit "taken" which is unusual for Penguin.

I'f you have worked with multiple ideas for OOTW then you have done something similar before, if not exactly what this is. The handling is different than a way I already would do this, but the basics are nothing new. Done Deal, yes, as in I have done this basic thing many times before...since childhood. I hate spending good money unnecessarily. And, I bet you already have multiples of the gimmick on your shelf, so it's not like you needed that too.

Yes it is a good routine, but the advertisement led me to believe it was something new...

Simply the best out of this world ever. The fairest and the cleanest. Easy to perform and with the same "gimmick" you can do thousands of others different card tricks and effects. SIMPLY PERFECT. Thanks Penguin. Thanks Shaun.

The Dunn Deal is one of those effects where you'll ask, why in the world didn't I think of this??!! Clever, magical, easy to perform, and the spectators shuffle and can examine the deck! What more could we ask? And as always, Dan's teaching is great. Buy this--you will use it.

Ladies and Gentlemen...I am giving no secrets away when I say IF the cards are to separate into red and black...the spectator is not going to do the separation. You must take responsibility for creating the Magic. What the presentation of Shaun and Dan has done is CREATE the illusion that all of the MAGIC takes place in the spectators hands.

We should acknowledge the contributions in Greg Rastami's Cosmos Duo. Greg uses the same gimmick to good effect at the get ready. And he uses a couple nice subtleties to finesse the classic midway cross over and the ending cross over display. But really a presentation variation on manage the cards to start, mange the cross over and manage the display. That is the classic method.

Here...the spectator shuffles...the spectator deals...the spectator collects the cards...and the spectator (could) do the whole reveal. Dan simply reviews where we are...based on the spectators handling. The magic moment is moved all the way to just before the reveal.

No ordering the cards to start...no ordering the cards in the middle...no ordering the cards in the display.

Done right...the EFFECT should FEEL as if done completely in the spectators hands.

No funny move upfront...no "leader cards"...no change the red and black in the middle...no funny display at the end.

Here spectator shuffles...Dan clean demonstrates good mix...Spectator deals with absolutely no interruption...Spectator collects the cards...Dan Recaps...Spectator reveals all black and red. In demo Dan does the reveal but there is no necessity...the magic is all done. Spectator could with direction do entire reveal.

Now ladies and Gentleman...eliminating the starting ordering...eliminating the management in the middle ordering...and eliminating the management of the ending display. COME onnnnnnnnnnnnnnn! That's true advancement.

All for the cost of one move facilitated with the gimmick in a strong routine the move is easily invisible. Clean to start...clean to end.

Use the gimmick for effects before and after. Yes...its not going to be a magician fooler. But at the odds of a billion to one...its going to FRY the minds of spectators all.

Bravo...Shaun and Dan.

This is a super trick.
But it will take practice.
Dan & Co do great job explaining the effect, the outs and other helpful tips.
I’ve never handled this type ‘of trick’ before so for me, it is taking practice.
But it is so satisfying when it works correctly.

This is a trick that will go into my routine ‘soon’.
It depends on the time I put into it.

I feel it is worthy of the time you should devote to it because it has such a powerful impact.

Buy the trick
Put in the time
Call yourself a Magician
Such a reputation maker

Thank you Dan
Steph :)

Well, i will be honest with this review. I spected something more elaborared, instead i recieved a “normal gaffed deck” is a deck i use for other routines, for that 3 stars. This version is clearly better than the normal OOTW, but there are other really More interesting products around. A huge (easy with practice) move needs to be secretly done. Not a version i will use!
Hmmmm... Greg Rostami CD.

Love the effect. Not the easiest to do.

I’ve had this trick for a while and just revisited the tutorial. Using this method is such an excellent idea. Dan has done an excellent job teaching this and covering all the bases.

Was kind of concerned about the quality of the gimmick but after seeing it up close it's awesome. Very well made. Great mystery. Thank you well done!!
