The reality of performing this trick is different than what the video suggests. Yes -- it's possible to have this outcome. But the odds are against it. And that means that most of the time, you won't be handing that deck to a spectator to count down to the cards at the end. And some of the time, you won't be ending very clean until you actually clean things up. This looks like a great trick, but it's often going to be less than that in actual performance. The demo video is misleading at best and dishonest at worst. Buyer beware.

Agree with other reviewer about best possible outcome in video.... Also should have been a ten dollar download.... We could do the minor arts and crafts required

I wish I could give this overpriced product -0
There are so many better products and books to do the same effect...

After playing around with this I actually like it....I don't think there's a way to delete my one star review...so hopefully this helps...spectators like this and that is what it's all about

This is a brilliant trick! Easy to do, shocking kicker ending, and everything examinable?! CRAZY - Want to give it 100 stars!

Come on people, of course not every time is the optimal scenario, but the creators cover all possible handlings...

BTW, I liked better the 2nd version in the tutorial (Sorry Joel... LOL).

1st Effect

instaCAAN by Joel Dickenson
https://www.penguinmagic.com/p/14418

Joel's a outstanding performer creator & innovator

I did find the procedures for instaCAAN
Way over the top way too involved and complex (but I'm sure there will be those who will appreciate his approach and methodology for the effect)

I'm thankful because it gave me the incentive to come up with my own 3 solutions and methods - which I did using similar elements already involved within the original it's not a New concept but it's a new way to look at things
I will be using my own method
With that said

2nd Effect

There are two absolute killer effects on the market released by penguin that everyone should check out

ZERO by Joseph B

As they both incorporate kicker blank endings
The ingenious method keeps magicians and spectators from backtracking the procedures and methods
