Nothing makes me happier than learning good impromptu card tricks. This is not only easy to do, using sleights you probably already know, but it's super visual, can be done anywhere anytime, and resets instantly.

This is a great closer for your ambitious card routine. I've seen some really great closers before but they've all required a gimmick of some sort. It's hard to believe from seeing it performed but it requires no gimmicks at all.

Video quality is good, thorough instruction including 2 cleanup methods. It's not too long, rambly, or full of filler B-roll. It's short, to the point, concise, and easy to follow.

Pros:
- No gimmicks at all
- Can be done with any deck
- Incredibly visual
- Resets instantly & no real prep required
- Fairly easy to learn and perform
- Inexpensive
- Clear, concise instruction

Cons:
- Angles. Not bad, but definitely something you'll have to be aware of.
- ... That's all i can think of.

Angles not bad? Did you see how he holds it for the spectator to view as if looking down from a blimp? The angles are terrible! Also, the part of the trailer where it shows the card sliding in just above the bottom card? Can't be done! Misleading, to say the least.
