What's your favorite Gaffed ACAAN and what makes it so good?

Have you ever seen 'Solo' by Mark Mason?

I love performing this, gets a great reaction if performed well

First of all the cards are removed from the pack which is checked by the spectator to make sure it is empty then closed.

Spectator selects a card, any card, you have 2 Kings with holes in the centre and different coloured backs to the standard deck which are left on the top of the deck.

The selected card is slid 'in between' the 2 Kings so you can see it through the holes, the 2 Kings with your card in between are spread the rest of the pack is discarded.

So you are left with the spectators card fanned out in between the 2 Kings, throw them down on to the table or whatever surface you are using and the spectators card visually disappears it is clear when you reunite the Kings the hole is still there so their card couldn't possibly be there.

You then open the previously checked pack and slide out their card (signed if ou got them to sign it) much to their amazement.

any questions PM me

Also 'Blink' form the same guy

The normal routine requires a force but the gimmick is amazingly simple and I have worked out a routine where the spectator can pick any card they want then with the use of a DL they get the card I want them to have only to produce their card from my pocket, but wait a minute I don't have a pocket.

I don't have a gaffed ACAAN but I have Hondo's "Intuition" which is a
PAAN (Predicition At Any Number) effect that I can recommend.

Just curious... What does "Solo" and "Blink" have to do with ACAAN? Anyhow, back on topic... my favorite is The Grail by Mike Rose and Alakazam.

Mark Mason's "13" is a really EASY ACCAN. A deck is spread and cut. Spectator names any number. Cards are counted down to that number. The cards are put away and a second deck is produced with a 13 sticker glued to the face of the box. The cards are removed and the deck is dealt to the 13th card. The two cards match!!! No sleight of hand, no thinking. It's that easy.

There have been many posts on gaffed & ungaffed ACAAN.

Regarding Solo, it's another remake. My favorite version is "Tablehopper's Holy POD" by Christian Knudsen upon which I've taken away some things and have added a few touches.

Best regards,

I find the Svengali style simple and cheap to perform.

Good question - sounds nothing whatsoever like an ACAAN to me.
