Trick: McDonald's Aces
DVD Which includes "special" cards.
$19.00 Canadian
Difficulty: 2/5
Pros: This is an amazing trick for any beginning magician at only $19.00 or an expert since the DVD includes two trick versions and many different vannishes from beginner for expert giving somebody at all levels to practice.
If your just starting you can get better at magic and still do this trick as it contains many different vannishes to practice. This trick has i think the best reactions compared to any trick, the ace's are clearly seen then seem to actually vanish like REAL magic. If you just want to perform the trick fast you'll be doing it within 5 minutes using the easy version included on the DVD. Works with any U.S. playing card company printed cards. i.e. Bicycle
Cons: The deck you use for McDonalds Ace's you wont be able to use for any other trick. Not completly examinable which can cause audience members reactions to shrink but if you good all you gotta do is put the trick away and do something else. Can't really be used as a closing act.
All in all i think this is an amazing trick which i rate 4.5/5 stars (.5) because not completly examinable) but recomend it to ALL card magicians.
Buy this TRICK!!

Nice review, Random fool. This is an excellent effect that I come bakc to time and time again.
One smale gripe - with a bit of work the effect can be FULLY examinable at the end of the trick. You just need to do a few things and you're golden.

I agree with both of you.........great effect, but with some thought, the deck can be used for other tricks, and then fully examinable at the end!

I have posted this on another review, but here it goes again. Is the name of the DVD MacDonalds Aces? And who is the author? Where can I get it? Is this the Gary Ouellet DVD, Dream of Aces?
Please list this type of info on future reviews.

Mine is on the way. Can't wait to see it. Anyone can tell us how to make it clean at the end? Thanks.

Yes, I'm srry it is called MacDonalds Ace's, and there really is no author but it is tought by Tomas Medina, he teaches it very well.
You can get it at almost any good local magic store or at
www.penguinmagic.com or
www.penguinmagic.co.uk
