Just a quick trick for you guys. I learned it off Michael Ammar's Amazing Secrets of Card Magic. Tell me what you think.

Amazingly easy to do with extra cards.
But I dunno if anyone would be silly enough to post such trick heh.
So tell me, were extra cards used or not?
If not, it was amazing, couldnt spot anything suspicious.

He doesn't have to tell you, you know. That's just exposure.

Very nicely done though. No other comments

Thanks for the comments, guys.

I don't really understand. Do you think it's silly to do tricks that use duplicate cards? As stevebo said, it would be exposure if I told you, and anyway, I think the method is irrelevant in most tricks. If the effect and presentation is impressive and entertaining, then method doesn't matter.

K, sorry for being so, so.. so newby. :)
I myself wouldnt do such, cause my friends are just too "show me that, show me this" so I rather use impromtu trick instead.

But ok, it was all good.

Great trick!
If the trick is performed like I think, I would add a bit more of "false maneuver" (casting a shadow, "cuts"...) to increase its final effect

But then they could think that you have controlled the card to the top.

Nice Trick :D Well Done :D
