Random I-Tunes Song of The Moment: Stairway To Heaven by . . . wait for it . . . Dolly Parton

For $36 you get the needed cards for the effect, a presentation that insults your spectator, and a good and relatively clean (magically speaking) effect.

I'm not the biggest cheerleader for packet effects, particularly of this genre. However, this one eliminates a lot of the issues I have with this type of effect. Most effects of this nature have a convoluted so called presentation with cards turning face up and face down, etc. Then the kicker at the end. However, this one is much cleaner. You show four cards with a red back. Then one at a time they each turn to a different colored back. Though one of the cards cannot be examined, you're still left pretty darn clean.

Each color change has a nice funny or clever line to go with it (which you'll learn from watching the presentation, not the "teaching section"). If you liked the presentation and the effect, you'll be very happy with your purchase. The very basic instructions needed to do the effect are given and nothing more. This DVD presumes a certain level of knowledge, but I still think it should be pretty easy for a beginner. The cards are well made, and the mechanics are easy to execute.

If you like packet tricks and you like how this looks, then the only question is do you want to spend $36 to be able to do this trick.

Final Verdict:
