Use ANY deck. The PERFECT trick to open your card set. Here’s how it looks:

You write down a PREDICTION on a POST-IT PAD and set it aside. You take out a deck of cards. The spectator deals down to a random card. You turn the Post-It pad over…and YOUR PREDICTION HAS VANISHED.

But not entirely…

When the spectator FLIPS UP the card she dealt to, the note is now STUCK TO THE CARD!

And, yes, that’s the only card with a note on it. ;)

DETAILS: No palming, ditching or loading. No difficult sleight-of-hand. When you’re done, you can peel to note off the card and GO RIGHT INTO WHATEVER TRICK YOU WANT.

Great trick Rick. Even me, someone just beginning in magic can be made out to look good doing this trick.

Great explanation, thought out method, and I'm sure people will get great reactions. Can't wait to set this up to try on my family first, then branch out to doing with friends.

Nice to see someone reads Report this review

Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on February 15th, 2016

So many great tricks are buried in books. Anneman and others spent lifetimes creating and performing and people cannot see the greatness in what they have done. Mr. Lax has bypassed dvd's and quick downloads and taken forgotten work and forged magic that even a neophyte could do. I grew up at Ireland Magic and have seen many of the greats. Mr. Lax is on his way. Keep hitting the books!

Like the idea Report this review

Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on February 23rd, 2016

I like the idea of an "post it" on a playing card, but I didn´t know that it was a counting trick. Nothing personal, but I just don´t like counting card tricks.
But still, I am sure you can perform this routine and impress people.

Rick Lax for President Report this review

Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on February 16th, 2016

I believe my first Rick Lax purchase was "Detached." I've been hooked ever since. This is at least the 12th trick/lecture I've recieved and have been absolutely thrilled with since. Going Postal lives up to the prior praise. First off the deck is un-gimmicked and allows you to immediately go into another trick as advertised. Rick covers all aspects of the trick as usual. The discussion forum also has a lot of useful information and fresh ideas. I highly recommend to any card trick enthusiast. Skill level of 2 on a 1-10 scale.

Impressive Report this review

Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on February 15th, 2016

This hurts the average person's head just to think about how it was done. The whole project in creating this really is a lucky find. This is also a pretty clever idea on how to force a card. Thanks Rick and Justin for the interesting "202 ways to force a card" book is a lie! Well. Happy with the purchase.

First off, I am beginning magician and have been doing mostly card magic. I have been looking for a good trick to start off a routine with that wasn't an obvious stack (can I say that?) I wanted something that couldn't be done in the middle of the routine, yet wasn't obvious that I set it up before hand. THIS TRICK IS PERFECT! Wonderful trick and totally worth it in my opinion. Rick seems to do this over and over with ease. If you are a Rick Lax fan, then this is must.

This is a great trick. One I will certainly use. I like how clever it is and how logical it progresses to the finish.

Don't bother Report this review

Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on June 2nd, 2016

First, the trick plays best if you can do a really convincing, reliable false shuffle to start out. Don't buy it if you don't have a false shuffle ready to go.

Second, the trick relies on something that Rick Lax could have written down for you and posted, but instead he makes you pry it out of the video by playing it again and again. When I suggested to him that he share this information, I got an insulting reply.

So I'd stay away from this one, and I'd stay away from someone who insults their customers.

I have been doing this trick all day! Report this review

Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on February 17th, 2016

I substitute teach by day, and do magic by night. I've done this trick 10 times in the last 5 working hours with the night crowd and my students. Everyone is amazed.
1)This trick is easy to learn with limited practice.
2) a beginner can perform with pro results
3) from shuffle to finish routine. No "choose your favorite method" cheat in the instructions.

As a magician for almost 20 years. I have created and performed, and this is exactly the style of trick that any magician can have in his pocket in any occasion.
I'll be doing this one in my routines!

Trick is Fine Report this review

Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on February 28th, 2016

The trick is fine and I can tell a lot of thought went into it. However, the same end result could be accomplished by forcing a card.... Would it be as clean? Probably not. But could you get creative and simply force the card? Yes. Plus, the last thing I need is another stacked deck to carry around. With that said, I really enjoy Rick Lax and buy up anything he puts out.
