I've just watched the DVD and played a little bit with it. And even though I know how the trick is done, I'm still unable to follow exactly what's happening when Thomas performs. And that's a really good thing. There are quite many phases of the routin, and some of them is optional. It will take a little bit of concentration/practice to remember the correct sequence, but nothing you should really think about once you get the handlings down. Taking notes while watching the explanation as someone suggested is a good idea. The sleights are dead easy, but very deceptive as I mentioned I could follow the cards even when I'm supposed to know the secret.

I really like the way Garrett presents this trick. He performs it as a demonstration of street hustlers way to get money from laymen, and therefore it's merely presented as a "secret move" uses by gamblers to con people, and I think your audience will actually enjoy being fooled again and again because this trick is very entertaining and magical.

Highly recommended.
