Atinczor,
Since you like "Shock Twist" I bet you would like Danny Archer's "Eye Exam" and Ton Onasaka's "Back-King" because these two use the same principle and I would be 99% sure the effect you mentioned uses it, too. (That automatic little count that turns one card over , each time being a different card while hiding the actual backs) In "Eye Exam" you use four jacks that turn over one at a time under a guise of several "eye tests" that you give to the spectator. Then the backs change from red to blue, and as a kicker, the backs are all revealed to have doctor's eye charts printed on all of them. Then if you wish, the spectator holds out his hands, and a plastic "eye ball " pops out of the cards into their hand. In Back-King, four kings turn their backs one at a time, and as a kicker, the Bicycle back designs vanish to show each king from an actual "rear view" as if they had actually turned their backs. You already have the basic moves down pat. You could add these two with no sweat.
The difficult must become easy, the easy beautiful and the beautiful magical.

I like several packet tricks and can't really say any particular one is a favorite but at the moment I do-
B'Wave Double Back (which doesn't have to be done as a packet trick with the cards coming out of a regular deck) Mirror Card Illusion (Presto, though the effect is similar to Eye Exam of various versions) Royal Scam (When I've a table) Royal Oil There are many more by Peter Duffie that I like and some by Aldo Colombini but these are my favs right now. |

My favorites are:
Paul Wilson's "Gypsy Monte" - variation of Color Monte Nick Trost's "Trick Kards" John Bannon's "Duplicity" - a gaff-free version of Twisted Sisters Just my drop in the bucket. |

Color Monte sans diamonds
Dr Daley- sometimes I do this trick following Gemini Twins with whatever two pairs we end up with. Sidewalk Shuffle Card Warp I'm just getting my Elmsley down to where I'd like to try some Bannon material. I love the look of his work, can't wait to try some!

I'm just learning Intiution/Out of the Blue.

The best reaction I get to a packet trick is for Virginia City Shuffle. Easy to do, a real fooler and perfectly clean.

Been having a packet trick resurgence myself. I'll go for a period of time not caring much for them and then fall in love with them again for no apparent reason.
Been doing Twisted Sisters quite a bit and follow that with Sander's Ace, except I use Queens for the climax cuz it flows with the sisters better and the change looks more shocking IMO. Plus I can use "almost" the same cards as sisters. I also like using the single odd backed joker too. Jon Allen's Double Backed has always been a fav, except I use slightly different cards and have a "How to win at Blackjack" story line. Just ordered Capitulating Queens by Gary Plants and Entourage by Gordon Bean after seeing recommendations for them here on the Café. Looking forward to having something new to play with. |

All great packet effects, and I have been doing Double Back for many years, just a great and now classic effect by Jon.
A good friend here on the Café from Canada put me on to "Capitulating Queens" a while back now and I've been doing it ever since. And I can tell'ya that it's also a wonderful packet trick to conveniently pull out and do for folks. It always plays well and is quite stunning. You'll enjoy it for sure, actually, forever probably.

Thanks Mb217, for the excellent suggestion. I got Capitulating Queens yesterday and absolutely love it. This is a fantastic effect and one I'll be doing for years.

Stand Up Monte by Garrett Thomas ranks very high. Definitely one of the best ever.

Stand Up Monte, has it all.
Four Card Trick (Greg Wilson Double Take DVD, I believe) is an impromptu winner |

I still enjoy performing corner of picadilly, bullet party and reswindled. I like them as they all have multi layers of deception and the cards can be pretty much left with them to grab. Does anyone still perform Mega wave in their act?
