Magic Tricks

Lately my main complaint about most of the tricks put out in the magic market is that they aren't workers. You won't actually do them more than a handful of times in real life. Either they're not that strong, they have terrible angles, the set-up is impractical, or the like. This is the first trick I've bought in the last few months that is an actual worker that you will do all the time.

One thing I do want to point out off the bat is that the first phase is really weak. First of all, he has the worst version of the monte move I've seen in a long time. Secondly, even if he was doing a better version of it it's not meant to be done so overtly. It's meant to be much more casual. That being said, in this particular trick it's not as bad. There something to be said for starting off this trick with a not so convincing transpo and then building up from there, but I would still jump straight to phase two. From there on it's really strong and people understand there's no such thing as a mixture unless you have two of each color.

The moves are very well taught with great close ups on the more complicated moves.To be honest a beginner is probably going to find this trick too difficult and the more advanced magician probably already can do most of the moves in his sleep since these are common moves for the most part (though I should point out his version of the c*** looked fishy to me. You'd be better off with the standard version of it).

One thing I always ask myself when someone puts out their version of a standard trick is "Is there a reason this trick was published? Is it significantly different from previous versions of this trick in a good way? Will people who already do a version of this trick gain anything by learning this version" The answer to these questions are yes less than 20% of the time but I'm proud to say that this is within the 20% that do deserve to be published.

This trick is highly recommended for the intermediate or advanced magician. It's impromptu, has very good angles, and for the most part uses moves you already know so it shouldn't take you too long to learn.
A beginner should expect to spend a lot of time learning this, but consider it time well spent because these are very useful moves and this is a trick that you will be doing for the rest of my life.
