Magic Tricks

NOTE:I did not buy this effect here but from Alakazam`s website

My main reason for buying this effect was my obsesession with think of a card effects. One of the first things i learned when venturing into "the mind" was the 8 card brainwave, then offcourse the invisible deck (wich i did not like despite everyone elses praises...)and as i progressed blizzard, kolossal killer to name a few and even a few methods of my own. All are good but a very clean looking method i ended up sticking to was an effect by Andy Nyman called "Big reaction" wich i adapted to having numbers on the backs instead of Nymans original presentation and predicted "lucky number" as the reveal.

Now with this new effect i can do this as well as predict two more 100% free choices and i can do so with the deck and my prediction in full view the whole time even held by the participant(s).

I just watched the DVD, prep`d the gimmick and did it first try, no hard memory feats, and i would imagine anyone would be able to, if you unpresumeably mess up first time i doubt it will take many tries. There are so many things happening at once and so many layers of deception in this method that makes it very hard to backtrack. Cant wait to take it out on the town :)

I will say this tho, the gimmick is kind of fragile so dont go too hard on it but if you treat it nice it will probably last a long time.

Also the gimmick can not be inspected but i wouldnt worry too much about it really...just follow instructions :)

I also wanted to add that the problem with many "think of a..." effects is that once you reveal, the trick is over. This effect gives you alot of bang for your buck and i very "routine-friendly" wich will def help you take the plot to the next level.

This was a long one, but i had alot of thougths on the matter and truly liked this product and urge anyone doing mentalism to check it out.
