Very nice Foz. I couldn't pick up any major problems. One minor problem I had was the way you turned the card over to show that there was no coin there. The way you held that card didn't feel natural to me from how I hold cards and how I've seen many others hold cards. But again, different people hold cards in different ways. So very nicely done.

Thats the way i turn cards over....

Not that i`m looking for an excuse....but i had a bit to drink when i filmed it last night....Glasss just out of shot.

Cheers for your comments....i`ll look at the card turn over and try and make it smoother....

Maybe i`d should film it when i`m sober... :wink:

pretty nice, apart form the cards being turned over the only other thing is the first time round, when you went to take out the penny something just didnt look right....
maybe its possible to adapt the mogtrix to work with this.... could be smoother.

The turning of the card, makes the whole trick loose alot of touch, and it reveals itself.... Good thoughts and moves elesewhere, but you should find another way to turn the card etc.

That turning card is something i will have a look at.......

The last one is`nt as nice as it should be....

Needs a rethink...but i think it is a good foundational trick to build on.

Hopefully i`ll get this looking sweet for next visit to the magic club.
