Andy Leviss’s IT’S A MATCH has long been a best seller in the world of magic and mentalism.

This updated version now includes 25% more custom printed matchbooks (with a different hotel from the original release), a custom manufactured hotel key, and detailed DVD instructions which include bonus ideas and tips. Here’s just a few comments from real world performers…

“I love this trick! It has little to no set up. It’s easy to do. It can be performed close up or on stage. The presentation and patter possibilities are endless!”

“Mentalism really doesn’t get better than this!”

“There is no switching of matchbooks, no using clear forcing bags or any such madness! This makes a lot of sense and is a wonderful effect.”

“It is visual, baffling, and has room for comedy. Do not overlook this one.”


  • The spectator FREELY chooses ANY matchbook.
  • There are NO switches or funny moves.
  • Perfect for close up or even platform.
  • Comes complete with everything you need and a detailed instructional DVD

The effect is simple and straight forward…You display a glass bowl filled with over two dozen matchbooks from hotels around the country. You also show a hotel key card which is placed face down on the table. The key stays in full view the entire time. The spectator randomly removes matchbooks from the glass bowl and stops on any one they choose. The sepctator is in complete control and yet when they turn the key over, both it and the matchbook are a PERFECT MATCH!

This is so diabolically clever; we wish we could tell you how it’s done!

Great props, almost self working Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on June 5th, 2016
"It's A Match" is a clever, simple-to-perform bit of mentalism that would work best if part of a larger routine. Since the effect is so direct and frankly pretty quick to perform, it could lend itself as part of a three-part routine. It could easily be incorporated into a one-ahead, vacation-themed routine for instance.

As a one-off effect, it might appear to an audience as much ado about not much, hence the loss of one star, but don't let that discourage you from ordering it. I'm glad I did and will certainly work it into a close-up or parlor presentation.

The props are very well made and the handling explained in the short DVD is very easy to follow. Only one, simple sleight is used and it is not necessary to actually execute it if you don't want to, but it will enhance the overall presentation.

Good value, great props, easy-to-follow instructions.

So it uses a principle which has been used in other avenues. I have several Jay sankey DVDs in which similar secret but in a different context. It's good for a small group of people. Like 2-5 or so. Something you wouldn't do one on 1. I combine this with inferno with joshua Jay . It has a great routine. It will last you. Good teaching as well. I'm glad that it's combined with 5 for $99. I like this effect. Not easy to carry with me. But when I do magic for small groups, especially at a hotel it works.

Very good Report this review

Great parlour magic. Worth it for the props alone. Needs some audience management or another gimmick so it lost a star but it gets good reactions if you add the right patter.

Focus On Performance! So Simple! Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on March 15th, 2020
Everything is High Quality, from the Effect, Routining and the Props! You can play this routine as minimalistic or "organic" that you can use on the street, all the way up to a "Black Tie" Event with the matchbooks in a beautiful lead crystal bowl. And it plays as BIG or SMALL as you want it to!
Everyone props are normal everyday looking items, and the method, subtleties and tips are superb.
Save this Routine for a special show or to get gigs.
This is NOT a Table Hopper or a Strolling effect.
But if you Have it in your Case, you have a weapon for a special circumstance...You'll know when to use it!

Loved this effect, very simple method and possibly easy to do right after opening. I would suggest working on presentation with this one and you're guaranteed to entertain your audience. I plan to use this often in my stage shows.

Easy Almost Self Working Miracle Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on April 15th, 2017
This is a pretty easy to do trick and virtually self working. You do need to do some set up, but different quick options are explained. It's basically what you see in the video so if it's something you're interested in I'd get it because it is deceiving and easy to do. Not a knock your socks off routine, but as part of a larger set well worth it.

I just love the simplicity of the method. You can really focus on your performance/patter.

I feel the props used are timeless and simple. This is the type of effect that you can do almost anywhere.
