Magic Tricks

You get two very well-made gimmicks that will last a very long time and allow you to perform three versions of this effect. Also, as delivered, it allows you to repeat the effect with two different outcomes, for example at adjacent tables at a restaurant. That kind of part is a minor annoyance and I wish the card revealed were more different between the two versions. However, Erik provides sound instruction on modifying the gimmicks you have or making a version of your own where the outcomes can be more different.

Beyond the gimmicks and effects, Erik provides excellent instructions for EVERY aspect of every version. He does this in a way that is both clear and interesting. There is one move that shows up in a lot of effects and some people may be uncomfortable trying. I won’t name it because that would be revealing part of the method. However, his instruction on this, as with everything else in the video, is as outstanding. Andl, much like Paul Green's "The Odds Are With Me" provides the world's best place to practice a classic force (actually two of them), each of the Lucky Coin routines provide a spot where you can do this move that is so well covered there is no way to get burned.

Erik even spends some time explaining something that I’ve known about for the past 30+ years and have never seen explained. While I can’t say any of that part was new, it was certainly never laid out in as clear a fashion.

Even if you wind up not performing any version of this, though you probably will, you will walk away a better performer for having watched his instruction.
