I remember learning this game in a logic class 25 years ago. Unfortunately, The video teaser ( as with many of them it seems) chose to leave out a performance of the full effect. I understand the excitement of having a foolproof effect, but it is easily reconstructable by anyone who wants to take a little time to run through the choice/options. The video would have you think that they are choosing a hand behind their back, pulling them forward, and you amazingly just guess {correctly, every time} which hand the coin is in.That is NOT how it happens at all, and the teaser is very misleading (perhaps to keep people from working it out and not having to purchase it}
It is, as he says at the end, something to use casually on the fly.... you could use it to win A free drink, but likely wouldn't want to try it more than once for the same crowd. Like his/their thinking in general and he admits that it is based on premises that have come before. I don't think it's worth the amount of money asked- NOT because the idea isn't good, but because it can't be done over and over safely, and it was not represented correctly. If enthusiasm is genuine, the video demo should show the whole routine

Completly agree. It's really overpriced for what it is. I personally really prefer: "ANDANTE Murder Mystery" by Andreas Dante. With that one people cannot get behind the secret easily. You can even repeat it by simply changing from 3 to 4 spectators and they don't have any clue at all.
As with all effects based on secret logic: it is all about your presentation.
