Has anyone got this one yet? It looks quite smooth and could be a quite cool start for another trick involving aces.

Hello,

Personally I'd say avoid this...

It's $15. $15!!! You're paying for one single trick and what looks like a main sleight and a production move. Not at all worth the money you're paying; IMO of course.

I'm not positive that it's just the two moves but judging from my rather limited knowledge on card sleights, however I'm 95 percent sure.

Buy a book, Royal Road to Card Magic may be what you're looking for as it contains more tricks and sleights than you'll know what to do with. Plus the paperback version is 12 bucks on amazon. Plus maybe 4 or 5 dollars shipping. Two dollars more for so much more.

If, however, you ignore my advice and buy this regardless I'll tell you two things. One, it's exactly as the ad says it is, ungimmicked and it's very clean and nice looking. Two, you will probably never perform this; this is a very angle sensitive trick and requires a long amount of practice in front of a mirror. ( )

However if angles aren't an issue (practice should never be an issue if you really want to perform the effect) than ignore my advice and blow your money on this overpriced trick.
