A wonderous - relatively impromptu - packet effect with four cards. Through a series of sequences, you show an ambitious card type of sequence with one of the cards in impossible situations. The specs begin to feel that all four cards must be the same....A of spades for example...you then show them that all four cards are indeed the same, they are all the 10 of hearts....and you proceed to show all four cards are indeed the 10 of hearts. You then move into the last sequence, showing that they couldn't all be four tens, that is impossible, and you proceed to reveal the four cards to be all four court cards, jokers, or whatever set you wish.......it is kind of a packet ACR meets NFW, with a twist!

Purely sleight of hand, no gaffs, gimmicks, etc.....is maybe a 8/10 difficulty wise, gets easier if the more comfortable you are with a DL.

I have seen a video of it on a site...I think the site is called ebaumsworld.com Look it up and let me know, otherwise I can try and find a clip for you....I think there are some hanging around out there!

darwin ortiz " at the card table" videos or book

You can also find it on Michael Ammar's Easy to Master Card Miracles Volume 6, and Gregory Wilson's Double Take DVD.

It's an outstanding effect that gets powerful reactions.
