The ad: "You show a packet of blue-backed cards and place it on the table. The deck is shuffled and handed to the spectator who is asked to cut the deck and deal the cards until he arrives at the first Ace (counting as well a small packet of cards on the table). Let’s say the first Ace he comes to is the AH. Without any funny moves, the packet of blue cards is spread, face up among three other face-down cards is an AH. The other blue-backed cards are snapped over and are seen to have blank faces. The spectator counts the cards previously placed on the table. There are eight cards in the pile. You turn over the AH from the prediction packet. It has a red back. Written on its back is the number “8”."
I don't have it yet but actually plan to buy it. It seems that Cameron has a good twist on B'Wave (and that he never sleeps but that's another story). Available at wildcolombini.com for only 10$.

I've just received it.
It's a clever use of an easy "principle" (yet, very effective) that you probably know if you like card magic. Once you know the secret, you slap yourself thinking "Am I just too dumb not to have thought of this myself ?" I guess with a little thinking, you can adapt it to something else that "B' Wave", even if it's good as it is. You have also some variations so the spectator can shuffle the deck himself. => Cameron Francis wrote : " from self working to some sleight of hand required." I should point out that in this case "sleight of hand" doesn't mean "hard to do". 2 of the 3 variations are pretty simple. I say that in case that someone is thinking "I don't want to spend 8 months on a "super triple quarter pass" move." Variation #3 is actually not easy to do but in my opinion, this is not the best version. So, again, don't think "the best version is the hardest one to accomplish." Variation #1 is the best version for me. Besides, it has a "Sankey" touch in it, so it appeals to me.

Hi, King of Diamonds, thanks for that! I hope you use it as it's very effective!
Yes, it is very simple to do. I should have mentioned that the only version that requires sleight of hand, is variation three. However, I personally would only do variation three when performing for other magicians (which I rarely do!). The original version and the first two variations work great for lay people.

Yes I know I will soon have the occasion of using it.
I guess this is the kind of trick that you can still do at 3.00 AM during Christmas night. At least, it's less complicated than a memorized deck and less dangerous than "In a Flash"! :-D I also like the fact that you can choose any number to write on the back, so it gives you more freedom in a way.

Oh, yes. I think the umber 8 is used in the instructions but you can use any number you wish.

I have a question... everything's examinable correct?

Cameron Francis V.I.P. 7025 Posts |
Yes, everything may be examined at the end. No gimmicks or switching cards in or out.
