This is the very first effect I have purchased by Wayne Houchin. After watching the trailer once I knew the mechanics of the trick. I've been playing around with magic since 77, so very familiar with most sleights. If you are a fairly serious card handler, you will already know the sleights that Wayne uses for this beautiful piece of magic. Mr Houchin has basically taken a classic effect to a higher level. I purchased the download mainly because I wanted to see and hear Wayne's approach and his tips and extra touches. I've never been very good at the sleight he uses, so now I have motivation to really practice it. I will definitely now master the sleight required to perform this masterpiece. Excellent job Mr. Houchin. I'm very pleased with this purchase and look forward to purchasing some of our other effects. I especially liked the version with an ordinary small pad. The only downside to this is that you can't do it in a walkaround venue as there is a little setup involved in both cases, but at the right time, as a one time piece of magic, it will fry your audience. It's not impromptu, but it IS powerful. I think I like the routine with the 'pad' more than with the cards. It seems more impromptu. Well done Wayne. Highly recommended.

WELL I ACTUALLY DO USE THIS EFFECT FOR WALK AROUND AND SET UP IS SUPER EASY WITH A FEW EXTRA IDENTICAL CARDS ALREADY SIGNED INSIDE THE DECK BOX. LATELY THIS IS THE ONLY EFFECT I HAVE BEEN DOING BECAUSE OF ITS AMAZING REACTION. I ALSO BOUGHT SOME DESIGNER BICYCLE CARDS TO ADD TO THE EFFECT.

As a street performer a one off or a forcing deck sound like win win. Can it be done surrounded? And am I getting a gimmick or is it a diy?
Pr a pure manipulation. Can you tell me if it is pocket space friendly?
