From my experience as a magician, I had a idea of how the trick worked before I purchased the
download, but out of curiosity, I wanted to see if Ilyas may have had a unique twist on the
performance since the advertisement on Penguin's site made absolutely no mention of the use of
gimmicks. As it turned out, the trick was done my the method I had suspected.
The trick is
adequately explained, but I rated it with only two stars, not on any fault of the performer, but
upon Penguin's convenient omission of the fact that GIMMICKS ARE REQUIRED. This is NOT a purely
sleight of hand trick. And while I realize that it is only a $5 trick, I believe that Penguin is
capable of far better advertising than this. I have bought a number of cpin trick downloads from
Penguin that I gladly rated with 5 stars. The tricks were well taught, and the adverts were written
so that the buyer would know exactly what he was getting.
