Sorry, I don't agree it worth every penny. Yes, it is well made but the asked price $90 is too too HIGH ! The DVD comes with it have no explanation or instruction just a few minute of demo, Although it is a very simple gimmcik but I think he should at least give some hints or suggestion on the DVD.
On the demo video even Mickael himself need to put the deck of card behind his back to switch a ungimmicked card to handout! NOT recommended!! If anyone still interested on it, I will sell mine for $50 please pm me. |

The price isn't an issue for me ( meaning I'll pay through the nose for a miracle ). But, it does not come near Mike Close's pothole trick.

The DVD contains a lot of explanations as far as I remember, with multiple way to end up clean. You may want to consider using it on your computer and look through the chapter instead of looking through the menu.
The gimmick is really worth the money when you see how much work it takes to make a clean one, I wouldn't spend the time to try to make one myself. The Dollars is low right now, and the product is made in Europe. It makes all imports look more expensive that they should really be. Each time I get a new product, I also try to do it "my way" with my own handling. What could fit Michael when he performs doesn't specifically fit me. I'm doing an "Instant reverse matrix" by returning all three holes at once, and perform the actions a second time. However, the second time, I make the holes jump visually from a spot to another by shaking the card. I do not wait the end of the trick to lose the card you first give for examination. I've had the chance to perform the trick in live situation. The problem I've met are differents : - You cannot perform the trick for table hopping as not enough people can see the effect at the same time. I believe this is a goog trick to perform with only 2 / 3 persons looking at once, such as in a cocktail or bar situation. - You need to remove a few regular cards from your card box to be able to open the deck and let the cards out freely. Past this, the effect is a killer in my opinion. |

Magicxman, the explanations part is viewed by clicking "suivant" which means "next" in French. The next menu also has another 'next' or 'previous' menu option.
From a layperson's point of view, they examine the card before and after the effect. This really looks amazing. |
