Hi,

has anyone experiences with Stefan Olschewski's PDF "Key to Your Card" avaílable at www.stefanmagie.de/shop.htm ?

I know Peter Duffie wrote a very positive review in MAGIC but I never heard anything from people who actually bought the effect. is it difficult to achieve, is it really as clean as it reads?

Best

Peter

You just CUPSed me. Dang.

The method's nice, and I don't think I'm giving too much away to say that it's not a thought of card at any number, but it's a very clean-seeming selection.

Not sure you genuinely can make it up for $15 though.

May publish a more complete review when I've digested the ms.

In my head I've been comparing and contrasting it with the Bogus Effect. I'd say this was on a par with that, though they have very different ways of being clean and/or dirty.

Thanks for this short insight.

I would love to read a more elaborate review on this. I like the premise of ACAAN, but was looking for a version where you do not have to touch the deck.

I just googled the Bogus effect and it appears in this version you handle the deck quite a lot.

The ad for the "Key" says you never touch the deck. Is that true?

Peter

You touch the deck that the initial card selection is made with, though theoretically I suppose you don't need to as long as you're nearby and have tip-top audience control. To be honest this would probably look weirder, especially considering the openness of the card selection to begin with.

In terms of the deck that has the right card at the right number, you definitely don't need to go near it. Will post a review over the weekend hopefully, with the caveat that I won't have performed it.

I am looking forward to it

Hi,

thanks for your interest. Meanwhile, Mr. Grue postetd an review which pretty much says it all and also states the negative aspects.

Luck me he did not find too many

If you have ny further questions on the effect feel free to ask me via PM or on the board.

Stefan

I would like to take this thread back into focus as many of the owners of the effect asked me if I could supply a demo video.

Finally I can - but have it password protected so onyl people who have the original PDF manuscript will be able to see it:

The password is the first word on page 11 of the eBook. Have fun!

Stefan

Lovely stuff!

Thanks!
