I love doing this routine. I use it as an opener and it gets a great reaction. I feel it sets the tone for my personality and show. It will take some work to get it down but it is worth it.

So I own multiple versions o of this trick I've been doing it since I was 14 years old when it was Emerson's West whole thing. Daryl made it into a stage routine where the handling could be done from the stage or parlor it can still be done close up but the handling is much better. The first set came with a factory flaw. Penguin was fast in doing the right thing and sending me out another set ASAP. I have to tell the quality of the cards is amazing. Although I would have liked the plastic sleeve with it as in the other versions I've bought , it keeps the corners of the cards from getting bent which they still do anyways but not as bad. If you like this trick by multiple sets now I don't think you're going to get quality like this ever again. That being said I own a couple plastic sets and they just don't feel and move right .This is real good quality cardstock and of course Daryl's directions in the mirror are awesome.

This was so much fun to learn and perform! The directions are easy to follow and the cards are very good quality. There are places in the routine where you can add your own personality. For anyone looking to add a routine to their stage or parlor repertoire, I would highly recommend learning this trick and adding your own jokes.
