Yes this effect is great, doesnt require any set up that i know of, unless you including the royal flush in the end.

The 4 aces production can be found in darly's video, if i never remember wrong, but his video does not teach the last royal flush production, which means this effect should belong to some other magicians.

Though the concept is very simple, but the routine and patter was nice and sweet.

Maybe people here that like to play with 4 aces routine can help you with that. :)

Very very nice trick.... Thanks for sharing :)

:off: How will you continue with the performance if you encounter the same problem like what this gentleman faced during the 1st shot..... out of a sudden, something went wrong in routine? I mean during a live show of course. Any experience and advise to share? I do not know how to handle this kind of situation and maybe just search around for a hole to hide or something to cover my face :)

Mr Thomas, Either you admit that it wont work alot of time, or you do something else with the card, saying that this reminds you of something, and you take back the rest of the stack and do a quick setup with the ending routine with the Ace of spade.

But of course, in order to prevent this from happening, you have to practice till the stage that it wont happen loh. :)

Thank you big bad wolf. I really like this routine and it is definitely useful when u wanna show a big group of people a trick that would capture their attention. doesnt look angle senstive at all..people can stare at your hands, no sneaky stuff. but the story is the one that really sells it..haven't seen such a simple but amazing trick for a long time...

yeah...no problem. glad to be of your service.

Quoting from W:H from Indecent, "The simpler the trick, the harder it hits..."

:lol: :lol:

Yes, in most effects, its the presentation thats help sells the idea, and the construction of the effect to the storyline is very well done also.
