I have just purchased this and wondered if any other people had this..? and what they thought of it...? And is there any other tricks you can do with it or any other handling methods than the one described.
Basic Effect for those that do not know what it is.
A spectator cuts about a 1/3 off the top of the deck looks through them and thinks of anyone of the cards, then shuffles the 1/3 he has and then places it back on top of the deck. He then puts the number of cards that match his thought of card to the bottom of the deck. (I.E. 6 of spades put 6 cards to the bottom). You then take the deck back and spread through them until you come to a red card, this is either their thought of card or is an indicator as to where their thought of card is.
regards
Antony

Anthony,
Sounds like one of the many mathematical effects out there. I personally have been trying to shy away from the "count down to this number" tricks..Just does not seem magical..Some are really good though. don't get me wrong I am not knocking the trick, just seems like too much counting...I do like effects using sublety as opposed to sleights though..

The effect is the important thing, how you achieve it is not.......

With the proper presentation and building-up of the apparent impossibility of what you're doing, though, these kinds of effects can deliver a very good audience response. All the best with it, and let us know how you get on!
Cheers
Chris
