Wow, I can't believe you guys gave such low reviews. I personally loved it. But it would be nice to replace your voice with some nice background music.

Hey daveywavey......
I have another handling that I can suggest.....it is a similar effect, but a much cleaner presentation......if you are interested in the "exact" name of the effect, I will get out the manuscript and send you the info you need to find a copy of it.......like I said, best as I can tell, it is not going to be any more difficult than the one you performed, but yet is much cleaner, and allows you to show both sides of the cards at the beginning, and througout the trick....let me know if you are interested in the exact name of the handling I use!

A nice performace. I could only critically comment on 2 aspects of the trick. Its been said before by others, that the ending should be more climatic. But this can be done by a simple bit of research into coin handling and coming up with a nice little feat.
The second thing which no one seems to have mentioned is your patter. Ive been doing magic for about a year now - but ive only just reached the stage which can only be classed as an 'obsession', and it seems without a good patter line the trick isn't half as good. Try to come up with a little story mabey - or if this sounds stupid just sound overly enthusiastic! Enjoy yourself and so will every1 around u!
But generally your sleights are lookin v sexy - keep it up
Hope this helps!

Ok, I get how to do all of the trick, apart from the most vital part I guess. I don't get where you get the coins from that go under the bottom right card. I might have a suspiscion, but even if my suspiscion is correct, i still don't know how you put the coins under the card.
Very good trick, but I agree that the finish is a little bit of an anti climax, but on the other hand, it does make the trick easier.

Ok i have been thinking more, and I realise how to get the second coin under the card, but the third one still eludes me!
