Hi Harimau,

One question, why did you not show the faces of the cards before you started the effect ?

by **harimau** » Thu Feb 28, 2008 1:51 am

Thanks to everyone who has taken time to watch my vid and for the comments/feedback, much appreciated.

I havent seen/read Vernons trick, but I can say that this was inspired by Peter Kanes take on "gambler vs magician" plot and some of Roy Waltons theories. That was my handling of the plot minus last transpo.

Hi Tenko

I am not sure why I didnt show the faces. I can only guess its because Im used to using a full normal deck which can be handed out and shuffled

Has it taken away from the effect that the faces arent shown?

It looks nice, although the initial part where you show the 2's I got a bit annoyed when you repeatedly snapped the card. Overproving that it is one card methinks.

I really liked that!

That was very enjoyable, a real pleasure to watch!

Very smooth all the way through!

My only niggle was the way you table the deck between the productions of the "2's" at the start. It just looked a little awkward and wasn't as silky as the rest of the performance.

This is me being hyper-critical so please don't take offence as the routine was excellent, just a little tweak that may (or may not) help.

u left me stunned!! wonder if i can do that too

I really liked the last transpo, something a little different. I was half expecting you to go into a version of Reset and was pleasantly surprised! Hoorah!

Good stuff

2 things.

Firstly, very good particularly liked the ending! and secondly, BLOC PARTY! good choice.

I really think it was a clever integration of tricks. Very nice.

by **Citrus** » Wed Mar 26, 2008 1:20 pm

I really enjoyed that, very well performed.

Only one minor criticism, is that you handling at the start of the trick seemed a bit fiddly and ever so slightly rushed, the rest of the handling however was good.

Might have to steel this one for my routine, i think it could be a very powerful opener.
