Wow! i know this effect has been out for some time but i thought it could do with a review.
When i first saw this trick I was amazed! The kicker at the end is truly fantastic. The patter seems to roll of the tongue with this trick with things like "So now we are left with 4 face down jacks, but we all know their are never 4 jokers in the pacl which is why they are Aces!(reveal)" FANTASTIC. Not only do i love the effect due to the magical quality of it but when you perform it you can allow the spectator to handle the very cards you were using(and no one so far has found the gimmick).

it would possibly be an even bigger help if you looked in the review index as there are already 2 reviewsposted for this effect :mrgreen:

Yes - sorry to curb your enthuisasm JuggleMonkey - I hope we haven't put you off posting reveiws or where relevant, adding feed back to existing reviews. :wink:

For the record NFW is also a big favourite amongst many of us here (if only I could master the dreaded aardvark...)

(Mandrake hears the dreaded word 'Aardvark', gestures hypnotically, develops nervous twitch, trips over large lemon, decides it's much safer down here on the floor and drifts off in an uneasy slumber.....zzzzzzz)

sorry to bump this up, but what is an aardvark? can you tell me or is that exposure?

Aardvark's are often used in this forum as a substitute for a move/gimmick that outherwise may expose something. Sometimes it get's used too much, sometimes it doesn't get used enough...

Im so confused! The fact that there aren't really any difficult 'Aardvarks' in this trick makes me cold and disturbed, as well as confused.

Ah! In this case 'Aardvark' refered to the count which is used as part of NFW! We're a bit braver these days and sometimes use 'EC' instead. Daft really but it keeps us amused at any rate! :roll:
