Magic Tricks

First off, I would like to thank Rick for releasing this effect. I had nothing but a smile on my face while watching this video, especially when Rick discusses the history of the trick and the overall method. The method itself is quite good, however I must say that I was a little disappointed that Rick never discusses how to get in to the trick from a walk around stand point. I know this isn't the case because I have been doing magic for several years, but for a beginner picking this effect up is kind of like doing a coins across routine without knowing any coin sleights... It is never discussed how to bring the gimmick into play, whether or not the gimmick can be stored in the box with the other cards, and if it can be kept in the box, exactly what you need to do to prepare for the effect and bring the gimmick into play in the simplest way possible. Like I previously stated, these questions weren't hard for me to answer, but from an objective standpoint looking at this video under the guise of a beginner, those were just a couple of questions I feel should have been addressed. Overall though, I'm very happy with this trick and will definitely use it in the future.

Thanks a ton Rick!
