21st Century Canasta

Inspired by Chan Canasta, so you know it's good. But when spectators lose their minds, you'll know it's great!

21st Century Canasta is the product of Mark Elsdon, and you probably won't believe it can be done until you read this book!

A spectator shuffles a deck (even their own!) and turns over the top card. They take your phone and open the Facebook app to your feed...to see a prediction of the chosen card. That's it. Really. And the amazing part? You never touch the deck or the phone!

And all this happens without a special app, stooge, assistant, dual reality or preparation! You can even show the prediction before the card is revealed!

Yes, it's the impossible made possible, and a massive upgrade to 'The Trick That Cannot Be Explained'.Buy your copy today and start making some impossible of your own!

"21st Century Canasta is another elegant, practical slice of creative mentalism from the wonderful mind of Mark Elsdon. What you'll love is the clarity, the apparent simplicity and the 'hands off' nature of the baffling effect. What's more, it's bang up to date: a piece of smartphone magic that just uses a regular phone with no stooges, special apps, programming or technical tricks."Ian Rowland

"Mark has given some classic methods a TOTALLY new twist and created a physical and technological impossibility that would no doubt have fooled Canasta himself! It certainly fooled me!!"Michael Murray

"Great addition to the jazzing repertoire! I will be performing this often."Jason Messina

"Mark has created a chimera; an intensely fooling effect that uses an ordinary smartphone but is somehow delightfully low-tech. Requiring no expensive special app, or even any sleight of hand, your spectators will never stand a CHANce!"Steven Brownley

"I just wanted to thank you for 21st Century Canasta. It was the thing I was looking for to make ***** from ***** ***** a better effect. It is not often I add new things, but your stuff seems to find a home in my sets."Matthew Crabtree

"Thanks Mark. The effect is brilliant!"Greg Glau

"21st Century Canasta has a wonderful feel to it, simple, professional, and easy to do... a completely hands-off method and presentation, this is one of the best effects for the cell phone I have seen! Definitely a user!"R. Lee Davis
