It shouldn't but it does Report this review

I agree with many of the other reviews that this effect is flawed in concept. The routines are riddled with illogicalities. Why write a prediction on a postit note by removing it from its pad and sticking on a card fdor support, and then either lose the card in the deck, or remove the paper and put it in your pocket?
I also agree that the explanation could have been done with more elegance.
Nevertheless, try the effect in the real world and you will find that it does have a great impact on an audience, it shouldn't but it does. You can't judge an effect until you've tried it. I wouldn't like to repeat this trick with the same audience, but that is surely a rule good for most magic.
This just proves to me that it is unfair to review an effect until you have performed it, and to underline the fact that a lay audience is not sensitive to the same things we are.
