This is a great trick! I love the touch at the end of naming the random numbers to further enforce the idea you had everything memorized! Just keep in mind to make sure the cards you put off to the side stay completely face-down the entire time, because there was a couple times it looked like you partially looked at the cards you put off to the side because of how you were flipping the cards. It made it seem like you were peeking them, which softened the impact of the reveal.
A solution to this that I should have taught instead would be to flip over the cards outwardly. Aka, place your thumb on the top of the back of the card and your fingers under on the face, then flip the card outwardly. This would prevent that “peeking” instance
Incredible trick! I thought of a variation in which you just count the cards and remember the 4 spots where the cards were by numbers and they could count to them by themselves?
@Kingsman-1 it’s the flow of the trick it doesn’t hit. Even with using led cards some tricks and the flow of it is mid. Which is why I do certain tricks
In my opinion, every trick looks and feels better for a spectator in-person as opposed to a video. I’ve performed this trick many times and have gotten great reactions, and it’s impossible to showcase it in this format, but I do try to engage with the spectators and make the experience as interactive as possible which enhances the experience. Maybe an addition could be to have the spectator hold the deck at the end of the trick and deal the cards face up for you, and you just tell them to stop at the key cards. This makes it feel more “out of your hands” and it lets them have more fun being a part of the effect.
