"I have carried this routine in my wallet for the past ten years, and think it is one of the most entertaining and utterly mystifying routines that can be performed with a small packet of cards. I have performed it for groups of one, and groups of fifty, always with equally satisfying results.

This routine is also in the repertoire of Larry Jennings, who normally disdains routines using gimmicked cards. This is one of the easiest routines using gimmicked cards. This is one of the easiest routines I do, yet perhaps the most mystifying to a lay audience."

The capitulating queens is a fantastic effect to add to your repetoir. The trick is full of surprise, and the final ending is really something special. Plus you get a green tally ho card. so.....yeah.

Great Effect Report this review

This is a great packet trick that is fun and easy to do. You can probably learn the effect in about 30 minutes. Highly recommended.

Great packet effect Report this review

This is such a simple packet effect but plays BIG. Two basic moves is all you need. Highly recommended for street performers.

Capitulating Queens Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on April 14th, 2020
I have been doing this effect for many years and have, in fact, bought several copies of it - I can't afford to not have it handy. To me, this is a perfect trick as it builds very nicely, one impossibility following another until the surprising, inexplicable end. And the best thing is, it is very easy to do. The only real move is the EC which is easy to learn.

Tip: don't rush through it. Practice the EC until you have it down then practice the routine smoothly and slowly. If you do it slowly, your spectators will have nowhere to go when you're done. And, when you're done, you can end clean with a little thought - not difficult at all.

I can't recommend Capitulating Queens highly enough. The pain to glory ratio is wonderful. Get it!!!

My audiences LOVE this! I LOVE THIS! So wonderful! Tons of magic happens again and again. Multiple climaxes.

I've carried it in my wallet for 25 years or so. I've worn out many sets. I do it with Jumbo Cards, too.


Carry this everywhere, every day! You and your audiences will love it too!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Go-to packet trick Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on September 10th, 2014
As the title indicates, this is my go-to packet trick. It never fails to get great reactions from spectators. I usually save this for one-to-one or small group presentations, and if you're good enough with the sleights, you can perform this completely surrounded. I use mine so much that I had to order a new set!
