I really enjoyed watching this DVD.
I especially liked adding a little something to my
current coin through table routine, with Mr Eaton's DropN effect.
The Rule of Five is
indeed fast but not as effective or plays as big. It's actually a small card trick that's more
suitable for beginners in my opinion. It's not bad, only that needs a little more work on the plot
and the reason behind it (as it's end doesn't really correspond with it's beginning that well). If
we're using gimmicks we might just as easily transform an entire deck to a chosen card, using a
gimmicked deck, which plays a greater impact in my opinion. I don't see myself using this one.
Card Under Glass is a nice little addition to your card routine, since it can be easily combined
at every stage as I'm going to give it a go. I see no reason not to. I wouldn't be using it as a
stand-alone routine, and I would take Mr Eaton's advice, about getting back to it after the heat is
off.
Two-Card Monte Payoff is just a simple two card monte routine with a little addition.
I don't like this routine where all the heat is on the cards, which cannot be examined. Mr Eaton's
addition is supposed to take some of the heat off, but I would still much rather choose something
that's less obvious.
What I really liked about this DVD, aside the fact that I did pick up
a couple of moves here, is the way the video is edited. Everything is kept very simple, staright to
the point, and professional. I like it when I can complete watching a DVD without wasting too much
time on fillers and tedious conversations. Mr Eaton's approach values your time, and in my opinion
shows much respect. He offers his magic very professionally. I may have found some of it not to be
for me, but I enjoyed watching it all.
