I like everything I've got by Rafael including this.
It works identically to what the
trailer looks like, but don't think it's a self-working trick. This is going to take some handling,
so I'd recommend the purchaser have been in card magic long enough to know some of the basics.
The Beginning phase is not difficult, but very clever. The exchange packets phase will take a
bit of work and belief in yourself.
The ending is a give-away of a pretty cool move and
should not be a problem with a little practice.
So... beginner or self-working, no... but
definitely worth the price.

Always liked Pat Page's original. Now this has been 'upgraded' and given the Rafael Benatar touch to
provide a workable Parlour Routine you can do anytime, anywhere. Rafael's additions are brilliant (I
love the 'request' element) and I'll certainly be doing this in one of my Parlour Shows.

Those that know me, know that I do not like cards or card
tricks. Being a magician, you need a
few card tricks. I work the tables every Friday evening, and do a few pet card tricks. This will be
one of my pets, and you will see why.
It has every thing you need !!
Trust me, I am a

I'm excited to try this but not without putting in the practice time. This appears to be a precious
routine for Rafael and it that really deserves your time and dedication.
Besides, it's
really great fun to practice.
Rafael describes and demonstrates the routine with his usual
precision and charm. Video and audio are very good.
He shows a few slights that I was not
aware of which can
be used in other routines.
This is a great closer for any card
routine with no gimmicks.
Thank you very much, Rafael

This magic game is one of those jewels you keep in your pocket to make someone's smile last miles
before you are gone. You can have fun, add your style a personality to it and make it your own. I
love it when something like this comes along.

I was familiar with the initial effect created by Pat Page. The effect is very entertaining for
almost any audience. Rafael has added some very nice touches to the original effect allowing for a
stronger presentation. I would definitely recommend this effect.

this trick is sexy. this trick looks like sloppy random shuffling but you are in complete control
the entire time. you can edit the routine to fit your style as well. And he has ideas for
different ways to end. I like the Jokers Wild ending.
you can do this trick with any deck,
just need a quick 15 second set up.
it’s worth a lot more than the 9.99 I spent on it.

Hello everyone,
OK, sometimes I do things that just don't make any sense, but then it does
to me. I knew what was going on but I "Bought it Anyway" because I wanted to learn this from the
master himself.
Sometimes you just need to see the creators techniques, handling, and bonus
materials, which can include alternate endings and much more. I was not disappointed.
This
routine may not be for the novice but it's not far from it. The slights used are pretty basic "Magic
101."
It will take some practice, but I can assure you that you will be wowing spectators
once you have it down. No Elmsey Count here.
If you handle cards well, you will be working
this on crowds the same day.
I hope that this helps,
The Magic Doc

Could see myself successfully performing this. Hope to let my Rafael personality show through. His
anticipation of choices that spectators might option and how to handle were very good. I like
borrowed (prep’d if need be) vs gimmicks. Gracias Señor Benatar.
