I just wanted to report I was able to download this easily without any issues. The file is a monster and about three hours long (about 4 GIGS!). I have only been able to watch the beginning so far and I'm very impressed with both Ben's attention to detail and the quality of the video. I will report back soon with a full review once I've had a chance to sit down and absorb everything.

I've downloaded it without problem.
It's fantastic and I'm glad that I purchased it. What's next, Mr. Blau? Wolf |

Lots of ideas. Still determining which of my effects to include, but the next project won't be just playing cards (although there will be some card material).

Hi Mr. Blau,
if in your next project there aren't just playing cards, it's even better! Please, put me on your list, because I'm ready to purchase whatever you sell. Wolf |

Most of Ben Blau tricks I could figure out by his video performances.
"Polygraph" not . so I bought it , and a little disapointed from the method , cause its not quite match one " declaration " of Ben in the performance. and who is have it , will know what I mean . |

I didn't write that I am disappointed cause the method is simple , but cause I don't like one " thing " that I have to do with the cards as opposed to what you said in the performance. I don't want to say more for not reveal the method but I am sure you understand the " thing " that I mean to. why come to Michigan ? if you are sure that I'll not figure it out , why not upload the performance in Youtube ? |

And, unlike the vast majority of contemporary mentalists, I perform each and every one of them straight through, from start to finish, with NO edits, NO melodramatic movie-trailer music, NO flashy computer graphics, NO preshow, and NO dual-reality. Everything you see is in real time, exactly as it would appear if you were actually there. (Isn’t this what’s everyone says they want anyway?) Also, your main objection is thoroughly addressed in the instructional video. I offer a huge number of alternatives in case you don’t want to do it the way I did. If you missed that, you weren’t listing/watching carefully enough. I’d suggest rewatching the video, and thinking about why you liked the trick in the first place, and instead of resenting the simplicity of the method, decide to embrace it instead. The real lesson in Polygraph is that you can take a very simple method and turn it into a miracle. Given that “Polygraph” was my first video release, I had two points I wanted to make during its production. One is that subtlety, affect and choreography make all the difference in the world. The other is that when people dig deeper into my body of work, they will find that some of it has rather complex methodology. I wanted to show that a method doesn’t always have to be complicated in order to be effective.

Ben , I said in clear words the third time. The only thing that I don't like in this trick is the thing that a smart spectator can notice. you said in the performance " even if the cards...... and they are not " that is half true cause in fact they are , in some way. If I knew from advance that the cards are not " ordinary " cards , I wouldn't buy the trick from the first place . I have no complaints to you , and I'll try to enjoy from it. I am hardly can wait to see a new video from you that I would not figure as you promised.
