“I was lucky enough to attend the MAGIC Live convention in 2015, and I probably spent more time at Magic Wladimir’s booth than anywhere else. I’m so happy that we’re bringing a couple of his tricks to Penguin Magic, because he’s an amazing creator and an amazing performer. This trick is perfect for magicians looking to play bigger gigs before bigger groups. The method is diabolical.” Rick Lax

Packs small, plays HUGE. The best part? NO SLEIGHT-OF-HAND NECESSARY!

It’s the Jumbo Card Problem.

So what distinguishes this trick from, say, NFW? A LOT. Each of the jumbo face cards is DIFFERENT…meaning, you show 4 DIFFERENT jumbo face cards…and they become 4 DIFFERENT jumbo spot cards. (And yes, you can show the BACKS of ALL the cards both BEFORE and AFTER.) Also you don’t have to do any fishy counts or ‘moves.’ You just show each card individually, then spread them out…and the magic is DONE.

The secret principle behind this trick goes back to Johann Nepomuk Hofzinser. Over the years, it was developed by Brother John Hammon, and Lubor Fiedler & Magic Wladimir.

Penguin is proud to present Wladimir’s most-improved version of the amazing effect.

So Happy to Share Wladimir's Work Report this review

This guy is awesome. And he's got 3 or 4 tricks that we'll be sharing with you, starting with the Jumbo Card Problem.

The biggest thing that makes this so deceptive (moreso than NFW) is that at first, you see 4 different face cards. And then 4 different spot cards at end. And the backs both times. I'll admit that this one fooled me when I first saw it in his booth. And then the handling is very easy also...self-working. The cards will last you forever and you'll be happy with this one.

All i can say is Wow!!!! Report this review

I was really fooled by this trick. Never did figure it out and i have been collecting magic for 15 years now. I have to say this method is so clever. I don't think i have any card tricks quite like this one. The idea so simple but ingenious.
I guess what fooled me was the handling of this. There are no tricky moves here. This one is a winner!!!

This one is awesome. I love how the cards are jumbo too, this makes it much easier to explain why you are doing a packet trick, rather than just having some random extra cards in a silly plastic wallet lol.

I have done this 5 times so far and it lands every single time I do it. Great effect, great concept and the cards you receive are well made. Great job Magic Wladimir, can't wait to see what else this guy has.

Awesome trick Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on October 3rd, 2015
Dont underestimate it's simplicity. It hits hard on the audience and the reactions are great. They don't know what to look for.. In the first place. It is so simple and yet gimmick does everything for you. No sleights or count to learn unlike NFW. So this is easy even for a beginner in magic.
Don't think. Just get one. HIGHLY RECOMMENED

Rarely do I get excited about new tricks. But this is so simple and so deceptive I can't wait to add it to my show. Thanks Wladimir! (and thanks to Rick Lax for the "how to" video")

I use "Jumbo Card Problem" as an opener: I say :It's an attention test, Watch closely and try to remember the cards I 'll show to you...
Kids or adultes like that!

This is such a killer trick. Very easy to perform, packs flat and plays huge. Always receives jumbo applause!

If Penguin gets this back in stock, do yourself a favor and pick it up. You'll be happy you did.

This trick is perfect It is so easy to do and it will knock their socks off. The cards are of a good quality and the method is so devious.You can do this a couple feet from spectator and they will not see a thing.

This is not a new trick. I can't remember the name of it but it is a total knockoff of a trick I had a few years ago. It's a good trick but not a new one.

AMAZING Report this review

OK: So if I ever decide to sell my secrets, I want RICK LAX to be the one to do my videos. As ALWAYS "Rick Don't Push No Junk Magic."

Once again I found his video short but to the point. It's just what you need. I can't stand it when someone spends 5 minutes to tell you something you understood in 5 seconds.

This trick is a keeper and is going right into my stage act. You will be performing this trick the second you open the box if you have watched the Learning Video from Rick first.

Surprisingly, this is a very simple trick to perform. If you do Card Magic, Stage Magic, Small Stage Magic, this is the trick for you. I suppose that you could even do this trick in a Parlor Magic show. I plan to find out. I just bought and watched the Learning Video. I love a Zero Learning Curve Trick. LOL. I will find out if I can pull this off doing Close Up as well. Kinda think I can.

So this one is simply "AMAZING"

Hope this helps,

The Magic Doc
