Hello everybody,
This effect is not new. However, sometimes you just need to get it because
it's Rick Lax. This is a keeper that you can do anywhere and anytime. Rick does a great job, as
always, in getting the instructions to you in a simple and easy to understand way.
It's
Rick's Psychology that you learn that makes this a great trick. Even if you already understand the
principles of the effect, it's well worth the price to hear Rick's take on this alone.
I
only have 7 tricks that are on me everyday of my life. One is "CONTACT" by Rick and it is very rare
when a day goes by that I have not performed it multiple times.
This will up my pocket to
8.
If you need to know, the others are:
1) Hoping Halves by Johnson Magic Products
2) Cooper, Brass, Silver, Transition by Johnson Magic Products
3) Smoke by Alan Rorrison
4) The Deluxe Pen Through Dollar by ???
5) Hundy 500 Patrick Page's updated version by
Gregory Wilson
6) Contact by Rick Lax
7) Sorry... You'll just have to run into me someday
for that one.
Along with a deck of cards, these effect are very powerful and easy to
carry. You may have trouble finding the first two coin tricks listed as they were bought in the mid
70's.
OK, Back to this illusion:
PROS:
1) Easy to carry around.
2) Easy to
learn. Got it on the first viewing.
3) Great Instructions from Rick
4) Has a great
alternate/additional ending with a prediction.
5) Any country's money will work.
6) Works
with any value but I recommend ones and hundreds.
7) No skill level required
8) Pretty much
self working.
CONS: NONE
Recommendation: I do the Hundy 500 with ones and
hundreds because it is far more impressive. Rick uses ones and hundreds as well on this routine. If
you can't afford to tie up that much money then both effects still work with ones and fives or tens.
However, it is your money and not being spent on a trick. This means that at anytime you can use
your trick to pay your bills and still do the trick with a lesser valued bill. I would suggest that
you save up to do it with the higher amounts. In my opinion, it's just a better trick when you use
high currencies.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
Thanks,
The Magic Doc
