The Devilish Deck MagicTao & Takel

Postby daleshrimpton » Feb 15th, '11, 16:59



New from Costas at magictao ....

Type: Mental magic

Items used: deck of cards..( Supplied)

Setup: None . minimum reset

Difficult: 1 . Easy as pie!!


From the mind of Takel, the man that bought you the traveling deck, comes his latest miracle The Devilish deck.

The basic plot of the deck is a familiar one. A full deck is shown, together with a single playing card, which serves as a prediction.

The spectator is asked to name a number between 1, and 52. It is explained that what ever card that lies at that number will be the one that is used.

Lets assume they say 19. The cards are counted down, one at a time, and the 19th card is set to one side.



It is shown that had they chosen any other number, the choice would be different.



the chosen card is turned over, and the spectator removes the prediction. both cards match exactly.



This effect, is just one of several on the instructional dvd.All of the effects are very clean, and very stong. No sleights, no funny counts, no outs. This is as close to self working as you would wish for.



The deck can not be examined, but when the magic is this clean and open, the spectators will never want to.



Easy re set, and comes with full instructions on dvd, which also includes information on something else that could be usefull. :)



highly recomended, and a great adition to the card at any number family.



£15.00. Available from 18th of Feb

I think you could do this with a second deal. That's if you can do a second deal of course! Not an easy sleight, or so I've heard.

true. But with this you do it slowly, and at the finger tips. Handling wise, It is very clean.
