Such a simple method for a stellar effect

This is a super simple method that doesn't require any knuckle busting slight of hand. It requires more performance than anything.

Amazing

I love all work of Mark and this trick is so cool. I performe this every day good work

Not Bad

This is a fine purchase if you don't mind using gimmicked cards. You can perform the effect without gimmicked cards but I have found that performing with the gimmicks is more powerful, though that does mean you need the gimmicks with you to get the best result

Red mango yes!

Incredible routine, just the method itself will give you so many ides on how to use it. Very powerful.

Summary

I really don't like to rate products with low star ratings but unfortunately this one gets it. Very simply, whilst there are two ways of performing this trick, neither are particularly effective in my opinion. It's not that this is a bad trick by any means, but compared to other card tricks, this one is definitely lack luster.

J
Javier
Summary

It?s a very good trick, but...you may say that you need (and buy if you haven?t) something extra to do it.

R
Ryan
Summary

Personally this trick is one of my favorite tricks to ever perform. It is very very smart and the gimmick involved is pretty much supplied in your deck. However to do the two deck version of this you do need something else to make it work. It really was worth it to me. This trick is so freaking great and just omg it?s so smart and I can't - there are no words for how great this trick is. It is taught beautifully and very clear. I do recommend this very much

Summary

I decided to purchase this effect after a bit of research, and with that said it has put me off of buying single effect downloads. I made the decision to buy it after reading a message by Mark on the Magic Cafe forums about it not using a well-known method. While that is partly true, he states the complete opposite in the tutorial video, almost contradicting himself entirely. Needless to say, I felt cheated. But I learned my lesson and will stick with my gut next time when hesitating to purchase these downloads.

I will say that his change, to this actually classic plot in card magic, is an interesting one, but it muddies the effect substantially. Chances are if you have been into magic for over a year you will already know some variation of this effect and will be better off sticking with that one.

Summary

It's an amazing trick, and trust me when I say that. Yes there are "things" you must have and other things to know that might take time to master. But if you put in the right amount of effort and practice you can fool magicians.

Summary

Well designed effect, very powerful. I have docked a point, not for the gimmick required, but because it disappointed me a little that said gimmick was the cleanest way the download taught to reach the point of reveal. A couple of ideas on sleights that could be used instead would have been nice, but it's a minor issue that just requires the performer to come up with an alternative.

Summary

The trick is good. It is what you see on the trailer. Just 4 stars because I was disappointed with the way it works. You need something extra, and with that it is obvious you can read anyone's mind.
I'm not talking about the gimmick, actually if you're okay with sleight of hand, you don't need it.

Summary

This is an amazing effect. The presentation is so fair, this will fool even fellow magicians. You do need an extra item to perform this, but it's worth it. Honestly, the method is so simple, when I first heard Mark explain it I thought to myself: "Why couldn't I think of this? This is brilliant!"

Summary

I think its a great effect, but I have never performed it just because of lack of will to do so. You need specific item, nothing really complicated, and it can be learn in minutes. 4 stars because the method can be improve, but that's our job to do it!

Summary

As a card magician and mentalist, I love this effect. Once you get all the stuff you need for the effect, it becomes super easy to preform. Only reason that it is not 5 is because you will need special material that you may have to buy. Other than that, it is a great effect and well worth the price!

Summary

After reading reviews and seeing you needed something extra i got a little discouraged but after purchasing i realised i could use an extra slieght and avoid one of the extras so it worked out well. Gets really good reactions and super fun to do.

C
Cosimo
Summary

Good trick, but if you don't have a deck with?special brands?, you have to buy something more to performe the miracle. The idea is really clever and I liked very much. If you are a magician you have all the stu the trick needs.not impromptu,little preparation, great work MARK calabrese, 9 $ ...recommended

Jeremy
Summary

Great Trick! What I like the most is the simplicity. This trick is very hard hitting. I think Mark's patter is overkill though. When asking the spectator to shuffle, Mark is saying that there are infinite possibilities for how a deck is arranged and no two will ever be the same, he laments the point quite a bit. While that statement is mostly accurate, I think it is to cerebral and detracts from the elegance of the effect. I think you are better served to just let the decks be shuffled and then allowing the spectator to contemplate the unlikely possibility of both spectator and magician picking the same cards. All in all Mark is a magician that impresses me with every release.

absolutely brilliant trick, effective and simple. small amount of prep required but nothing that cant be done in front of a crowd.

Nice download with clear instructions. Very easy to perform and you could apply the principle to an ESP card routine if you like. $9 well spent.

This is extremely clever and well thought out. It's a killer effect and worth the price.

Summary

I bought this download because of the first effect shown in the trailer. To my surprise, it was something that I had thought about it a long time ago, but I had problems with one solution...well, Mark got that solution and completed the idea that I had.
Insanely good effect and extremely fooling, even for magicians. Why just 4 stars?, mainly because you need something extra to perform it, and not everyone has that extra thing that you might have to spend extra money on.
