Nice product but poor description of the handling. He spends far too much
time on spectator psychology and perceptions rather than spending
more time providing a clearer description of the actual set-up and demonstration of the method and handling.

Hello friend, it is precisely the opposite of what I try in these projects. The games for me are the least important, and sometimes they are only small demonstrations of the theory that I expose, which often arrive almost every hour. Games you can find many and of all kinds, but my intention is to do a work that talks about psychology. The game is just the example. If you are looking for the game over the theory, I am afraid that this work will disappoint you.

Thank you very much for the feedback!

I do not have the video but I understand the review. I agree that psychology and theory are important, and I'm always interested in these subject, but if I buy a video where there is a good routine, I'm also interested to understand perfectly how to do this routine. So, I cannot judge the explanations of the handling, as I do not have the video, but there is no reason to criticize this review.

hi, friend. I'm not criticizing the review, and in fact I really appreciate his interest. What I'm saying is that this psychological explanation is an important part of the development of the game, and the main reason why the game works. I understand that many want to hear that by doing such and such a technique the game will be successful. but precisely the success of this type of game does not lie in whether you make some kind of false mix or not, but in all the psychological part that many skip because it is theory. But even for all those who want to go to the technical part, in this project I have incorporated a new section called "HOW TO", in which I only briefly explain the technical part. This explanation is augmented with great detail, with the "WHY" section. In fact, this chapter is almost an hour long.

When I tell you that perhaps this content may disappoint you, I am not criticizing and I am sorry if it seemed that way. I am simply informing her, because I understand that she has not understood the soul of this project.

Again, thanks everybody for the feedbacks!

I just finished watching the video. In my opinion, the "WHY" section is the most important part of the explanation. Far too often, we magicians focus solely on methods, and fail to remember that the real magic takes place in the spectator's mind. Understanding the WHY in this video is what changes the effect from an interesting card trick to a mind-blowing miracle.
