Red Hot prediction by Cameron Francis

Effect: Two spectators freely select ANY two cards from a blue backed deck. The cards are placed on the table. You state you previously made a prediction, on the back of two red cards. You then burried the red cards inside the blue deck. You ask the spectator to name any card in the pack, no force. Let's say it's the 2 of diamonds. You then turn over the two freely selected cards and they're read back, and correctly predict the chosen card!

WHAT YOU GET: You get a normal, sealed deck of blue backed Bicycle cards. You also get all the necessary gimmicked cards. Instructions are included

REVIEW:

PROS
Any 2 cards seen can be touched and any card can be freely named

There is only one sleight that is required for the effect. It is a sleight that most if not all card magicians already know.

Two BIG names really liked it!
“This is one of the strongest tricks I've seen in a long time. I've already done it several hundred times in my restaurant work and spectators fall over in disbelief. It is so strong, I close with it as few things can follow it. Great job Cameron!”-Devin Knight

“This is one of the best tricks to hit the market in recent times.”-Peter Duffie

CONS
The moment the perfomer tells that he took 2 cards from a different deck, he takes two cards from the same (bluebacked) deck; however, the move can be justified.

Over all:
If you are looking for a card trick to reveal 3 cards, I do not think there is anything better. The move is justified just like Larry Jennings does in his effect impossible and by the time you do the final reveal, the spectators will most likely forget anyways. If it still bothers you, any good false cut can be thrown in right afterwards.
The one real move can be easily smplified by using a cody fisher suggestion in his card to wallet routine.
It is very fun to perform reason and a mind boggler being it is a clean 3 card reveal.

I do mostly comedy magic and this fits in perfectly into my set.

Hey, thanks for the kind words!

BTW, if anyone bought this from me during my recent sale, or even bought it from another shop, let me know and I'll email you some extra handling suggestions. It was supposed to be delivered automatically when you purchased the trick from me but some people did not get their bonus PDFs for some reason.

You are welcome.
This might be the most overlooked effect on the market today.
IMHO, just as strong as revelation and at a fraction of the price.
