★★★★★ Date Added: Thursday 06 August, 2026This is a good effect, but it does not hit like the description says ("One card, completely correct"). If you don't know what the OBO principle is, you're going to be disappointed with this. Truthfully, 40% of the time it will hit completely correct, while 60% of the time you will technically get it right but nowhere near as impressively. There is a simple fix for this that makes the trick hit 80% of the time (I have put it on the secret forum of the trick available after purchase so as to not give away any secrets). It's not a bad trick by any means, but it's not as strong as it reads. You are using a combination of E with MO to create a miracle moment of sorts, and when it hits perfectly, it's great. When it doesn't, it's a little weak to me.
