This isn’t a bad trick at all. For the price it’s a steal. I just wish that in the description it would state that a certain something is needed because not everyone has this. I’ve been into card magic for over 25 years and I’ve never owned what’s needed to perform this. A little disappointed but otherwise a great trick. I just wish creators would specify what’s needed to perform certain effects because it sucks to download a trick then after getting it realize you can’t perform it.

I really wish that it was described in the description of the ad that you needed a “special” deck. I was under the assumption that you could use a regular deck of cards but this is not the case here. Upon reading what was needed and since I don’t own one of these decks I didn’t read any more of this effect so I can’t say if it’s good or bad but knowing Bob Farmer I’m sure it’s a great trick. Overall I just wish creators would state in the description that something else is needed.

All I have to say is don’t hesitate to buy this. You will not be disappointed. This is a way to have three cards chosen by three different people while your back is turned. Then without looking you can name all three. Super simple super easy. At $9 it’s a steal.

Was looking for a good simple ACAAN. I thought maybe this would be good. Nothing really good about it. To much dealing and counting. It’s just too confusing. Way to much procedure. Not recommended. There are better ACAANs out there this isn’t one of them. The Untouchables by the same author is the same convoluted ACAAN.

Even for $4 I don’t recommend this. Your spectator will see what’s going on.

This is a terrible effect. It's a kids party trick. The description is very misleading. Avoid at all costs.

This effect will never work. It’s impossible to pull off. Spend your money elsewhere. I’m not a fan of writing negative reviews but this is the worst.

This is an excellent effect. All the dirty work is done before the trick even begins. I had to change the handling on some parts to suit my needs because the original handling looked very unnatural. Overall a great trick. Definitely worth buying.

This is really good! So simple, so devious. Definitely worth the price. Worth more than the price.

It’s not what the description says. You have to do a card switch in plain view of your spectator. It’s not even explained good. The description on how to do the “move” is terrible.
