The problem here is that you're leaving gaffed cards all over the table, and the manner in which
you're displaying the "matches" looks so unnatural. Let's face it, the normal way you'd show a
"match" is to put the cards face up next to each other. The required method for displaying these
matches attracts suspicion, and instinctively, the first thing an engaged spectator will want to do
is pick up a pair of these cards and check them out.
There are other effects in which the
spectator is in control and yet manages to correctly match or identify cards, which don't leave you
exposed like this. The only good thing about this effect is that you end up with some gaffed cards
which you can then use for other effects.
