Ace assemblies are one of my favorite card tricks have been performing different versions for years
this is one of the cleanest without gaffs but does take 10 minutes preparation time but well worth
the effort and can be performed with any size cards for those with smaller hands.I perform this
version because at age 75 arthritis has set in I have been performing on and off for 60 years
Good effect basic slights required Oz Pearlman does an excellent instructional job

1 of 1 magicians found this helpful.
ok there are pros and very little cons
pros.
1. amazing reaction
2. gimmick is only
like 4 buks u can get it anywhere
3. very good for any level of magician/illusionist
4.
people are saying how LONG it takes to set it up but it doesnt take that long ohh wow a minute so
long!
5. you can use the same gimmick more than once so it is easy to set up but once it is too
worn out need to get another one butthat 4 buks gives u like 100 seprate gimmisks so no worry!
cons.
1. there is a slight noise when ur just begin the trick but after a few times and
wearing the gimmick in it wont make that noise which is already a little hard to hear
this
trick was very thought out oz if you ever read this review i must say it is genious.
a must
add to cart for all magicians/illusionist

This trick is one of the best card tricks i've come across and is very easy to perform. What's cool
about it is that it looks like real magic, you yourself just cant believe its happening! It is
gimmicked but I like a good gimmick if it gives insane reactions. Get this, you wont regret it!
Pros:Impossible trick
easy to perform
you'll want to perform it!
Cons:
Its
gimmicked, but its easy

This is my first review on Penguin, so please be gentle.
Skill level required:
Intermediate. This will take a beginner a while to get down. Experts will have it in a flash.
Pros:
Fantastic looking effect -- just watch the video.
There are some strong and
reusable slights taught here.
Teaching quality is very good....typical for Oz I've found.
Magic in the spectator's hand is powerful.
Cons:
Gimmicked. This trick is *so* not
impromptu.
Cold Deck. You'll need to either switch this deck in or out (or ditch some of the
cards) if the deck is going to be safely examinable.
Important notes about previous
reviews:
Some have commented on the sound problem -- this can be overcome by method and style.
Forums have good tips in this regard.
Setup -- The first time you setup will take you several
minutes, but after that, setup goes very quickly. You'll find you can setup in about a minute with
some practice. (I actually setup this trick in reverse when I practice, as a lot of the moves are
the same (so you can practice while you're setting up the trick).
Bottom Line:
If you
feel that you can routine this trick, given the cons, then get this trick. If you can't imagine
switching in a cold deck and/or switching it out in the way you perform, or if you don't typically
have a surface on which to work, as demonstrated in the video, then leave this trick alone and find
something that will better suit your style.
A note to the creator: Oz...I love your
effect; it's beautiful!

This is an amazing trick which I've mastered and is not so hard to do. This trick isn't for
beginners although with some practice it will become easier every time. Some setup involved but is
well worth it for the amazing effect.

Holy Moly, this is hands down the best ace assembly I've ever seen. Its even better than McDonald's
ace trick. Buy right now and start amazing people immediately. My only problem was that one move in
the tutorial wasn't explained very well in my opinion, but still amazing
Whatcha Get: Downloads
Whatcha don’t get: Cards
Pros/Cons: You can play this BIG.
You just can't let spectators examine the cards, which we've grown to think we deserve. But, for
this price, it's a good first trick.
Would I recommend it to a friend? Everyone should be
able to do some Ace work. Assemblies can be the most visual and jaw-dropping. I would tell a friend,
and with a little arts and crafts, I'll see them performing it with a couple of hours of practice.
Evaluative System of Points (ESP):
(1 = “Regret buying it. Wish I could send it back.
Going to shoot Penguin an email pleading that they remove the product from their site. Wouldn’t
recommend to a friend… or enemy.” - 10 = “Can’t put it down. LOVE it more than my firstborn. Would
pay double. Perform it all the time. Not telling a friend because I want it all to myself.”)
