The Camirand Academy considers this brainchild of Montreal's hot new magic star to be very, very, very clever. It's an easy, professional, inspired version of the classic name deck!
A deck is introduced with the name of a person written on the back of every card. Two predictions are handed out, whereupon the magician accurately divines both a FREELY CHOSEN CARD and a FREELY CHOSEN NAME in a stunning double prediction!
No sleights, no forces - just incredibly clean magic! Simon Lovell called it "Fantastic", and Hank Lee called it "a killer card routine - it'll fool even those in-the-know!".
Comes complete with an illustrated booklet and with the special Bicycle Poker Size Deck.
This is a really good one. A forgotten gem. The ad copy above is a little out of date--you can tell by the Hank Lee quote--and I think that, by this point, the method will be pretty easy to work out for most magicians. But it's a _great_ trick for laymen. Simple, fun, fooling, and very engaging. Two climaxes! The fact that you write your own names on the backs of the cards gives you an opportunity to put in whatever jokes and bits of business you want (I have a "Steven" card and a "Stephen" card, I make a joke about the one that says "Mark," I (accidentally) misspelled "Eileen," etc.). Also, the written-on backs justify pulling another pack out of your pocket, which is often an issue with other "one trick pony" gaffed decks. If I'm heading out and I think I might perform for friends, I usually grab a straight deck and one of my many gaffed one-trick decks. Lately, this has always filled the latter slot. Highly recommended.
