Well, to begin, this trick is worth $20. More like $40. I have bought many other of Rick's products (and I have never been disappointed) but this one blew past all of them. I will use this trick every day.

PROS:
-Rick's teaching is excellent.
-Rick teaches an incredible method of memorization for one part of the trick and it alone is an awesome trick.
-It's so easy!
-It's cheap!!!
CONS:
-At one or two parts of the video Rick drags on a topic that's not very relevant, but his teachings are still A+

With a little practice you will be doing this trick every day. A must have for card magicians, and basically any other magician out there too!

I absolutely love this trick. I wasn't sure what to expect, but this turned out to be one of my favorites. I will be using it all the time. Rick does a great job explaining this and the production value was top notch. I give this 101 stars (5 in binary). Can be done with no memorization or very little if you do the whole trick, which I recommend. Very clever concept. Don't hesitate to get this right away, you won't regret it.

After playing with Binary Code I just wanted to say that this is fantastic.

Rick is very likeable and easy to listen to. The video is shot in a well lit clean space. It has a live performance of the 3 phase routine as well as detailed explanations.

I would say that the second phase is pretty similar to the first phase, more of a convincer that you are doing what you are saying you are doing, memorising the cards. However the first and third phase are different enough to make this a truly magical and very clever trick.

The memorisation idea for the 1st and 2nd phase is awesome and very well explained using demonstrations and on screen graphics. Not to mention loads of fun to practise.

All in All this is a fantastic trick which really could be shown as a gambling/ memorisation demonstration or magic trick. Well done Rick Lax and Penguin magic.

I have to admit, I was fooled by this one. The method is ingenious, and so simple. The fact that this can be done with a borrowed shuffled deck makes it that much greater. I won't use this all the time because it is kind of long and drawn out, so it requires the right situation, but I will definitely keep this in my repertoire. The teaching in the video is great, and I like how Mr. Lax gives several methods for the beginner and more advanced card handler. This is one of the best instant downloads in a long time.

But this product is a stroke of genius. I like any-time, any-deck card effects. Rick Lax covers every detail. I also like the inexpensive cost of the product and immediate gratification through download. Now I am going to track down any other effects by Rick.

Once again, Rick Lax has provided a great effect for such a little price.

Rick's teaching is friendly, precise and covers everything you need to know... AND MORE.

Love this effect and it's simplicity, even for a beginner, at this price is a steal.

The trick is great! AND... The teaching is amazing!

Keep the good work Rick!

Rick Lax is an amazing creator, performer, and teacher. Binary Code comes across as an awesome feat of memorization and Rick teaches alternate handlings so that anyone from beginner to expert can look like a Mensa member!!!

Whether or not this effect is in the Coolbox, it is definitely worth the price!!!

This trick really allows you to deal cards into a red and black pile. Although the part with the 12 cards requires a bit of memorization, the part where you deal the whole deck does not. THere are also some basic sleights but Rick shows you alternate methods that are not so hard. In summary, this trick is amazing and worth money.

I was surprised how much there is in this video. Not only is the trick pretty good, theres a lot of techniques that you will learn to be able to use in other similar type of tricks. I bought it cuz it was pretty cheap and was pretty happy with it in the end.
