I purchased the download after being fooled by the video presentation of the effect. It's only $10 for the download.
The tutorial video is almost an hour long and goes over 4 methods, which are all easy to do to pull this off. After learning the different methods I applied one of them to my regular deck of cards and fooled the crap out of my wife. The next day I performed it for a few different friends and got some great reactions. Spectator can think of any card, you spread the regular deck out to find their freely thought of card. Pull it out, and then reveal it's the only different colored back card in the deck. They can examine the deck and nothing to find. In fact, you can use the same deck to perform other tricks with. No matter what card the spectator chooses, it be a different colored back card. I personally thought it was brilliant. https://www.vanishingincmagic.com/magic-......-mcbain/ What is Quickie? Simply put, a freely selected card is revealed to have the only odd colored back or be a different card in the entire deck. Each of the 4 methods taught allow for different presentations depending upon the performer's specific situations or circumstances that may arise. For example... Presentation taught for "Method 3." The performer hands out a deck of cards to be removed from the package and shuffled. The performer then introduces his "Lucky" card -- it has a back that is a different color vs. the deck the spectator just shuffled. Without showing the face of the "Lucky" card, the performer then inserts it into the fanned-out deck in full view of the audience. The deck is then shuffled to lose the location of the "Lucky" card. The volunteer is then asked to clear their mind and while looking at the fanned-out face-up deck, "sense" which card might be the performer's lucky card and then touch it. The performer, without any funny moves, closes the deck, turns it face down and spreads through to find the odd backed card that was placed inside moments before. The odd backed card is turned over to reveal it is indeed the card the volunteer just selected!! This video will teach you 4 completely different methods to end up with the chosen card having the only different back in the entire deck. You will also learn what might possibly be a "NEW" method to force a card. Various presentation ideas are included to help get you thinking of many more ways to use these methods for your own presentations. Points to consider are: This can be performed as a "Quickie" or embellished with an in-depth routine. "Quick" and easy to setup. All the methods are quick and easy to learn. Spectator has a truly free choice of any card. Only one deck is used. Quickie can be performed strolling, at a table, parlor or even stage. Deck can be handed out for examination or preferably to be used to perform other magic. Also included is a method and presentation using a borrowed deck or any deck, as well as a stage version with jumbo cards! These methods are the tools that can be used to create your own stunning presentations. And yes, all performing rights are included, even for television.

It looks very interesting but I am not so sure about the “no funny moves.” After watching the trailer it seems to be a bit of manipulation as you turn the deck around. Could the spectator pull out the odd backed card themselves?

Without giving away the method, there are no sleight of hand moves. Very easy to perform. No matter what card the spectator chooses, it will be shown to have a blue back. You can also use a blue deck and have their freely selected card be a red back. There are four different methods taught and a bonus routine. Once you know the methods you can start performing it right away.

Hi Danny, thanks so much for your review!! I think you will get a lot of mileage out of the 4 completely different methods taught and you are able to come up with some exciting original routines.
Chrom...trust me, there are no funny moves, I created these methods in order to eliminate any of that as I was not happy with what was available so far that did have strange moves or gaffed decks. Thanks again, hope everyone that has purchased it is satisfied. Should anyone have any questions or feedback please let me know. |

Chester and Danny. I wanted to reply and say you are absolutely right. I went ahead and purchased and just finished watching through the whole thing. I now know why I thought in the trailer there was a funny move. Overall I am very satisfied with this and will write a fuller review a bit later. Method 2 is exactly what I thought it would be and I also like Method 4. These are my personal preferences but the other methods are just as good.
Chester for such a "quick" (you see what I did there) trick you really took your time on the video and gave lots of options. Thank you. |
