Effect: The 4 aces are cut from the deck and displayed on the card mat. Then, three cards are placed atop each ace. One by one, each ace dissapears and ultimately lands under the ace of spades.

Great trick, its actually called McDonald's Aces, but I always incorporate my grandfather into it just like David Copperfield, it gives it a more unique characteristic. This was $20.00 BUT, it came with a demonstration video and gaffed cards and booklet. VERY COMPLETE. The techniques used in the booklet to vanish the cards are kinda...well...bad. I like to incorporate the elmsley count to vanish one, I'd like to use "blink" to vanish the other (that would be pretty hot) and i use the way shown to vanish the 3rd one, but as i said, once gone, they ultimately land under the spades. Its a great trick.

Reaction Factor: Will think your the hottest guy there, personally and physically!

You can get this trick if you buy "Michael Ammars Easy To Master Card Mirracles" video (Vol 2).
It comes with the gimmick cards, the routine/method and loads of other tricks too, and all for a measley £22.50

Ask at Abrakazam or Alakazam

Good work TJ, where were u when I spent 20 bucks on that one trick??? hehe...well, I eventually bought the Ammar tape and it came with the 3's instead of the aces, well....I'm figuring i spent my money well on that trick because it came with a demo tape. But...other than that, if the A's don't matter, buy the ammar tape, it's pretty hot!

This effect sounds exactly the same as Daryls Jumping Jacks, which i have reviewed elsewhere on this board.

Raj, if you read my my review, can you confirm that the 2 effects seem the same to you ?

Cheers.

Hi Raj
Just a thought..
Before buying anything, post a message with your intentions and I'm sure there will be plenty of advice, or maybe even someone who is willing to sell theirs to you.
If you need different cards to the 3's try here
Cards4Magic
