The method is so sneaky! So fun and easy to perform! The only restriction is that nothing is
examinable.

I like the trick but the revelation is bad. As mentioned before, it makes no sence to turn over the
selection to open the envelope. I performed it a few times and people saw that something odd was
going on. So I have come up with another method to reveal the prediction, a method that makes sence
to turn over the selection.
So that is why I only give 3 stars because of the bad
revelation that makes no sence and makes people aware of something is going on here...

This is a great effect that can be dressed any way you want to (Serious or Light) Mark does it with
humor and light, but don't discount the effect.
Many dismiss this routine because it is simple
and doesn't fool us Magicians. If that it how we measure the worth of an effect, we are in trouble
(along with lots of classic magic!)
The Effect is good, straight forward, and easy to
follow. Best, it can have different outcome; getting rid of the "magician choice" or "forcing"
issue.
Packs Small and Plays Big, EZ to carry and Automatically resets so perfect for Table
Hopping.
THE PROPS are made of durable material that will last a long, long time (they are
NOT made of playing card stock) The only paper portion is the "envelope".
They are a bit larger
than Poker Cards, so it is easy to see them for larger groups at a table.
SLEIGHTS: only
one "move" and it is a super simple, and you are free to enjoy performing and having fun with the
spectators.
STROLLING? It is not suitable standing in the hands. So if there is a
"Negative" it would be it needs to be displayed and performed on a surface (Table, Car Hood, Bar
etc..) Anyting with enough room you see on the trailer.
So I Highly recommend and have FUN
with this effect!
Blessings,
STEPH

The performance is kind of strict and has a point that does not make sense. You can cover the odd
bit if your personality is strong enough.
The quality of the cards and envelopes are decent and
should last a long time. It's a fun routine that is sure to entertain.
Don't expect it to
be a hands-down fooler tho. If the participant is being over-analyzing the effect, you will be found
out. There is probably a way around the awkward move that needs to be done, but I have not figured
it out yet.
Quality of the cards:
7/10 (for durability)
Difficulty level:
2/10
(only really 1 sleight needed at best) Super simple
Video Quality:
3/10 (usual level of
quality found on his products)
performance:
6/10 (Easy to do, can get great results but
marginal room for error)
Likeliness to end up in your magic junk draw:
8/10 (decent trick
but is just pocket space for a one-trick wonder)

Obviously not a magician fool. I got lucky and got this very cheaply via open box. The method is
obvious but you need the gimmicks. It blows people's minds. FYI, every time the result is
difficult.

This is a pretty great trick! With Covid right now it's a great virtual trick! I don't really
understand the negative reviews. If you buy the trick you watched the trailer and were most likely
fooled, so why are you complaining about turning the card over? It's perfectly natural to use the
card to scoop up the envelope to get it in your hands anyway.
This is a well made set of props and a great fun mentalism routine that is quick and to the point.
Well taught.
However, I like how Magick Balay does the handling. Look for it on youtube. The
way he does it justifies ‘the move’ a little better.
