Magic Tricks

Okay, so to begin, I will say that I did receive this as an advanced review copy.

I do really like this trick, and I will begin by saying that. However, the one fault it has is that there has to be a setup using the peoples names you are going to perform this for (for the prediction). This makes this trick fairly difficult to use for table hopping or for new groups, as you would have to write the prediction in front of them. The one thing that I did is pre-write the prediction, leaving the name section blank, and filling in the names as I met the group. This did take away from the overall reaction from the trick in the times I performed it, however, the reactions are still very good.

One of the biggest advantages of this trick, however, would be how impromptu it is. Seriously, with a sharpie and 3 pieces of paper, people will say you are in their minds. So while there may be a few complications with the set up, overall I would still recommend this trick. I look forward for this idea to continue to be toyed with, and seeing how other magicians adapt this trick within the discussion section for those that bought it.

Finally, is it worth the price? I would say yes. You will not forget the method, it is impromptu, and this idea can be used for so much more than just the trick that Rick presented.

So, taking everything that I said into mind, I would rate this trick a 8/10, and something that I do look forward to performing. Thanks again Rick, for a great trick!
