Three of Clubs

Great update on an old idea. Tamariz gives several appreciated tips on handling the card. Thanks for sending the additional PDF on how to make the card. This will fool those not familiar with the principal.

I just started learning magic a few months back and use it in my classroom. I really like this purchase but my biggest compliant is that there is no way to know how exactly to cut the cut to make the gaff. If there was a PDF download or even a pre-cut card for the price I would have been happier about the purchase. As it stands now I have to screen shot the video and try to figure out the cuts. It’s really difficult. I hope this helps.

Stunning illusion for sure. But you gotta either provide the gimmick or step by step it. Very difficult to recreate given the video.

Simple and powerful love it.

I love this. I'd seen a video of Tamariz doing this in the past and was stunned at how visual it was. Even better that it uses an old principle of a gaff that can be easily made at home. A lot of this trick also depends on psychology and the associations people make in their minds. It seems simple but is astonishing. I noticed in the explanation that Juan forgot the name of a basic card sleight (possibly because his native language is Spanish, not English), and that is what I like about him: He is less concerned with collecting fancy moves than just doing whatever it takes to make a strong impact on his audience. Even though his sleight of hand is probably on the same level as someone like Ascanio or Dai Vernon, he is not interested in showing off his fancy moves apart from how they can be applied for real audiences. I love his style.
