A wonderful packet trick from the ever-creative mind of John Bannon.

This is a game of Find The Lady with a twist. At the end, all the cards change into Aces! As we've grown to expect from John Bannon, this is easy-to-do and packs one heck of a punch, with an ending no one ever sees coming.

You show three blue-backed Jokers, and one red-backed Queen. All cards are shown front and back. The Queen is placed into your pocket, and you challenge your audience to catch you try and sneak it back into play. With literally zero moves, the Queen returns. Not once, but twice. To repeat this again, you explain you will need to use misdirection. As the Jokers are counted again, a card with the word "LOOK" printed on it appears in the spread. That card is placed in your pocket, and quick as a flash, with no moves, a red-backed card has yet again re-appeared in the packet of Jokers.

Here comes the kicker...you turn over the red-backed card to reveal it is an Ace. Then you turn over the remaining blue-backed cards to show they are all aces!

There's no palming, the moves are simple, and the special cards do almost all the work for you.

Michael
Trick is great and so is instructional video. My problem is the cards don’t come with a wallet. They are loose in the box and clearly there should have been a wallet. I know I have other wallets but it’s nice to store them in their own wallet!
I would recommend buying this trick just wish they sent out a wallet!
Nathan
Brilliant packet trick and good tutorial. Even though it only requires EC throughout you do have to be mindful of slight flashing. I have found performing it slow actually helps with this, even though you sort want to get to the last few phases quickly. The ending does payoff any heat at the start I find.
Aaron
Brilliant! Immediately went into my working material. So much magic is happening that before they know it they're already cooked.
David
I'm NEVER disappointed with John Bannon's material, and this is no exception. I loooove packet tricks and each one he has masterminded is a winner in my book. Pick this up, and you won't be disappointed. Easy to master and gets full credit where it's due from me 👍♣️♥️♠️♦️

I love these sorts of effects where the ending is just MIND BLOWING. Mr Bannon has done it again. A beautiful packet trick that doesnt have any funny or finnicky moves but it just makes sense. The reactions have been jaw-dropping!

The instructions are taught clearly and concisely and Eric and John have great chemistry in the instructional download.

well done John and thank you for sharing this masterful piece with the magic community!
