Your counts are smooth and well executed. As far as what you are doing it is great I really don't have a lot to criticize.

That said this is the type of routine that for me, has a great idea, a good handling but is begging for something more. I don't like that you show some cards and not others. And because some are quite deliberatly shown it makes the ones that are not a little bit suspect.

Now that I'm typing my brain is starting to kick in. Perhaps not giving such a deliberate view of the cards that are show. Just a flash during conversation? I'd really have to sit down and work out the patter and presentation to figure it out how I would go about it.

And just to repeat myself. As far as your handling of the effect. Very good.
