There will be those who will feel cheated when they see the method. I can see the complaints about
the performance video now. Yes, the critical moment is left out. Anyone with a smidgen of magical
knowledge could devine the method were the video uncut. No matter! Though there is absolutely
nothing new here — the techniques couldn't be more basic — as a trick for layman, this is a KILLER!
I spent a couple of minutes learning this before trying it out on my usual first audience, my very
over-magicked wife. She was blown away! Though very hip to the basic techniques of the art and
misdirection, she neither saw nor suspected a thing! In fact, her reaction was more dramatic than
those of the spectators in the video! This is a keeper! Brilliantly simple with stunning effect!
Can't wait to take this out in the real world once we can mingle again!

What can i say? After downloading i sat and watch the explanationvideo with Nick. My smile only got
bigger and bigger when realizing the simplicity of it. This trick is going directly into my show, i
would say its would work both at stage and in the street. Its 10 dollar, its 4 rides in the subway,
i think this trick will take you longer than that.

I've seen quite a few reviews saying it's frustrating that you don't get to see the whole trailer.
That complaint is so stupid! If a spectator were to describe this trick it would be the exact same
as the trailer looks! Maybe the trick doesn't work for you, and that's totally fine, but to dismiss
it just because it doesn't work like you wanted isn't a very good reason. Sorry, not trying to be
rude. At the end of the day if you bought this trick because you didn't know how it worked and they
show you how it works, isn't that enough! You didn't come up with the idea so it doesn't matter if
you thought the method would be different. ANYWAY, this is a great trick! It is pretty darn sneaky
and totally works in real life. You'll probably be kicking yourself at how easy it is! I will
definitely use it.

Excellent effect! just what I've been looking for as an alternative to some shoe things I've done
before. although I definitely recommend using it as a closer to some other card effects instead of
just a 1 or 2 phase effect. While they dump out the cards, the misdirection is perfect for loading
something else into the shoe, but like I said, I'd rather close with this and move on to a different
prop, like coins, etc. Also, you could possibly use this as a heckler killer. do an omni deck
routine and just be ready for when someone says "where the cards at, then?" In my shoe, bozo. Lol
I think this effect hits so hard because of the distance to the floor. To them, the card
under glass type effect is entertaining, but possible. This to them is just.. impossible. 5 stars.
Teaching is great like always with Nick. Met him a few times in person and as you would
hope, just very down to earth and easy to get along with and it comes through in his teaching on
these vids.
One complaint... please raise the price to 50 bucks so there's less people
performing this gem. Lol

This is a routine YOU will perform.
I saw the performance & immediately worked out how I would
do it & I was correct after being in magic many, many years BUT the devil is in the details & it’s
the details that really make this a 100 percent WORKER of the highest order.
You have 3 massive
kickers.
1- the SIGNED card appears under your shoe
2- the DECK vanishes & all you have left
is their signed card
3-the DECK is now in your shoe.
That’s 3 MEGA effects that are
easy for your audience to remember & easy for YOU to perform & get this THERE are no gimmicks
This is a beautifully routined masterpiece by Matt & Nick does a great job teaching it
I
Will use this a lot & so will you

I wish I would have listened to the other negative review before purchasing this. Another
misleading trailer where penguin edits it in such a way to make it look more magical than it really
is. Trailers should be uncut so we can see exactly what the spectator sees.

So simple, yet such a great trick!!! Easy to learn and perform. This takes the card to shoe trick to
a whole new level. Performed it doing street magic and totally freaked out the group.
