> Chosen Card at Any Number with Ben Seidman

Not practical for close up situations Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on January 4th, 2011
If I'm doing a Card at Any Number routine, it's generally going to be a close-up situation. Yes there is a utility sleight that is taught well in this tutorial, but all the practice in the world isn't going to make this ideal for close up (especially if performing for more than one person....though even for just one would be tough).
The angles are extremely limited and looking back at the demo (after purchasing), I see why the shot switches to a second camera angle at certain points. If the angles for this trick can't survive a single stationary camera shot, I don't see how it's to be performed for an actual close up audience. I honestly have to wonder if the positive reviews for this effect have actually tried this for an audience.
