:roll:

The effect itself is quite interesting. A moving hole in which the hole visually moves. Sure to us magicians it may not be totally deceptive but in the right hands this could and would look rather impressive.

I think this looks pretty cool! It keeps getting compared to Hollow and other moving hole effects, but what we as magicians keep forgetting is that this is the only hole trick (that I've seen, anyway) where the hole VISIBLY moves. In all other versions, you cover the hole with your fingers and drag it across.

I'm not saying that I prefer either version to each other, just pointing out the difference here. I think this could be a good follow up to Hollow - justify putting the card in the wallet by saying that you don't even need to touch the card, so to isolate it... blah blah blah.

Clever idea though, and certainly visual.

its great that one can examine both the wallet and the card

and hwy does he say a borrowed dollar bill, why waste money like that ??

and its not as good as it looks,

its looks amazing, but on closer inspection, its quite simple and quite badly done



also, whats the tune he whistles to the card, is that a famous song ???

But notice that he keeps his thumb over the left side of the card at all times after he's opened the wallet again - untill he reveals the "moved" hole under his thumb. Aha...! :)
But it's a great effect and I can imagine how it's done, but the only puzzle is if you can hand out the wallet to be examined. There should be a tiny *(Beep)* that shouldn't be there.

OK, you have come up with a way the illusion could be done, as you have knowledge in the field of magic. This doesn't mean that lay-people will immediately suss it out. Try to see the effect through the eyes of a spectator.

and hwy does he say a borrowed dollar bill, why waste money like that ??


Im guessing he means that you can move a hole thats been punched into a borrowed note. This isn't a waste of money as Im relatively sure you could reuse the bill, and the fact that it is borrowed must add another layer of impossibility to the specs.

its looks amazing, but on closer inspection, its quite simple and quite badly done


Im not sure I follow you. It looks amazing, yes. But on closer inspection its quite simple? Surely thats a good thing? And quite badly done? Huh? And your saying all of this without even have bought the product?
Wuzzah?


at first glance its good, but its nothing amazingly special

Again, what? Im thinking spectators only see it performed once, so then its obviously going to get a good reaction.
