Effect- A card is selected through a process and taken out of the deck. All of the other cards are
shown to be blank except for their thought of card.
I will have to admit that I was a slight bit
disappointed with the method. With that said, it still fooled me. This uses a very old principle
that you already know (some may be scared to use it), but applied and dressed up in a way that not
many people would pick up on, even a few magicians. It isn't as clean as the ad makes it sound, but
it still appears super fair to the spectator and looks legit to them. It's extremely easy to
perform, but you can't have anyone behind you which may be a problem in some cases, but easily
managed.
The DVD is very well produced and attractive. No complaints. Oz Pearlman is a great
teacher and lets you in on the subtleties that make this more convincing to the spectators. There
are 2 variations taught which are the basic handling and the advanced handling by Luke Jermay. I saw
flaws in both so I combined them both so that they made more sense (you had to remove cards which
was a drag) and eliminated a lot of procedure. There are also a ton of performances throughout the
DVD and while I applaud the effort, Oz is a very bad performer. A problem with DVDs and younger
magicians is that they'll copy the performers directly. Oz is very technically skilled, but his
acting and presentation is weak in my opinion.
Overall, this is a solid product and I recommend
it.
