Hello M.P
I am always cautious of you reviews of Tommy's effects and would be grateful if you could answer the following questions which do not ask you to reveal the method . Your review .. is it written up from the view point of A) What the spectator actually sees B) What the spectator will remember C) The magcians view point Tommy does have several versions normally in an ebook. Is the review a mixture of several effects or the main effect standing alone ?? Last point - when you say "free choice " I am assuming you mean a free choice of 1 of 52 cards with no range force of a smaller number of cards or influence by the performer to control the spectator to choose one of a limited range . Since these would not fall under my definition of a free choice .. Naturally by "free choice " on a magic forum you do not mean that the spectator perceives it to be a free choice when in fact his choice must be limited. Looking forward to your comments Andy |

The mine is not a review just a fair description.
When I say the spectator names any card and any number for me means any number bewtween 1 and 52 without any restriction and any card without any force. Anyway in the pdf there many variants: You can find some variants where you have a restriction on the card selection (Pay attention the restriction is on think of card effect and not on ACAAN). Some other version where there are no restriction. M.P |

Wow sounds good man...
And for those saying it's impossible then you don't know the true wonders of reading magic from books because you will read miracles like this all the time... Bernardo Rodriguez |

I bought it and I am glad I bought it.
There are some great ideas in the book. After skimming through it, I can conclude: It is nothing close to a miracle, but there are some great ideas in here to make a really impressive effect. I will be using this. More later. CW
People have been calling me "Yu" lately. I don't know, must be Chinese.

Bought Subtle Scam, great trick!
Very, very clean! - The Spec A names any card and number, the second spec shuffles the deck, deals through the cards face up and silently remembers a card. The deck is then dealt to Spec A's number and Spec A's card is at the number! The deck is then spread, and the Magician says a few statements about Spec B's thought of card, and then names it correctly! The bonus effect OPARN, is also brilliant! I had a few queries about the language - some aspects of the book are a bit rushed and hard to understand, but Tommy cleared up these queries very quickly - great customer service! For the price it is at, this is a great buy! Thanks and best regards, Kyle MacNeill |

Came upon this thread through pure chance. No sooner had I read the last post, I purchased it from Lybrary.com . I hope your happy Tommy, cause I've been up nearly all night experimenting with your ideas and conceptualisations.
For anybody thinking about getting this, please do. There is some fantastic stuff in this PDF that is well worth your time and money. For some, like me, this will act as a potent catalyst for developing your own ACAAN variations using Tommy's ideas. Currently working on a variation which involves one of the spectators writing down their chosen card and # position on a slip of paper and putting it into a wallet. IE: The prediction is NEVER seen by the magician . Cheers Tommy for all your work on this! Regards, Chappo

I agree with the Godfather that, in the field of ACANN, Tommy is second to none. Tommy's dedication and passion has proved without doubt that he IS the master of ACAAN. On this very forum, I have seen Tommy getting bashed as well as banned. In spite of all odds against him, Tommy continued regardless and today we see his work being much appreciated. Congratulations and Well-done Tommy. Keep up the good work. Wishing you the very best.
