This is truly a great routine . . . But it is poorly explained.
Patrick goes into great
detail, but the explanation is not as clear as it should be. All the info is there, the presentation
jumps around a bit. First they give a couple real life examples, then go into the history, then go
into the details without giving adequate framework of how the trick is done.
The way
Patrick performs this is well thought out, but I think it is overly complex. This can be done with
business cards with no folding (much easier), and the volunteer takes away your business card, not
just the billet.
Patrick also goes into other presentations, including a business card
presentation, but it is obvious he has not thought them through.
Everything is there for a
great routine, you just have to work at it more than you should. He goes into billet folding in
great detail, and I think is completely unnecessary - especially if you are using business cards.
All in all the effect is a 5 star (higher if I could), but the explanation could be much
better.
