The color you order is the color of the gaff, but it's a packet trick, so unless you do this trick in connection with your every day deck - (like how I listed above) it really doesn't matter

"Crazy HOLE is the close up version of the classic stage effect girl without a middle. Each phase is a beautiful moment of astonishment! Visual, impossible and SOOO much fun to practice." - Justin Miller

I agree with David's review. This is very easy to perform, great angles and fun to do. If you are worried about the cards being examined, Mickael does teach a version in the tutorial in which the cards are examinable in the beginning and at the end of the routine. Overall, I think I like it and will also give it a whirl at my next performance.

I purchased this and am currently exploring ways to add it to my show. It suffers from one MAJOR problem. As has been discussed here already, the cards SCREAM to be examined, and they cannot be. The "solution" provided on the explanation video is not a good one because it lacks motivation and will likely only arouse suspicions further. Bottom line: this is merely an interesting puzzle unless you can find a good, clean way to switch out the cards or a logical explanation for not letting anyone touch them.

For those that say you can't show the card up close, I don't think that's a true statement. as long as you don't show one of the cards entire face you'll be good to go. you can certainly hide the bottom of the face side with your hand or use the other card to block the obvious. in addition, as long as you are moving the gimmicked card slightly around showing only the back side to the spectator you'll have no problem having a spectator watch 2-3ft away. I say all this from me performing it for strangers.

it's cool, don't get me wrong,, I love mickael's work so I usually buy his tricks. his work can act as great quick visuals ("look at this") which are nice transition to your next trick. in short this is more of a puzzle than a magic trick.
Theres a new day tomorrow and it aint been touched yet.

Hey guys.

I reviewed this on the latest episode of my review show. It’s ridiculously good.

My son performed it on the show and I can’t about why it’s so good.

Here’s a link to the show. Any questions please let me know

Awesome review, Craig and wonderful performance by Ryland.

People were all tied up about the trick screaming to be examined- It is so easy to just immediately put it back where you keep it and move on to the next effect with abig smile on your face or keep it where a dup examinable set is next to it.

As you are putting the cards away puposefully slowly as they are staring at them ask if your spec can repeat this three times fast- Hole moley the cards vanished slowly.
How many magicians does it take to change a lightbulb? Regardless, for magicians darkness is a time for d'lite.
