FREE WILL HAS LEFT THE BUILDING

Effect

The magician presents a blue deck of cards. The backs and fronts of the cards reveal it is a 52 card regular deck. The deck is placed face up on the table. This is the last time the magician will touch the deck. The spectator is asked to cut the deck around the mid point, and place the cut-off pile alongside the other pile. They then select one of the two piles, and the other pile is placed to one side.

The magician asks the spectator to deal the cards face-up from the face-up pile, and stop at ANY card they wish. Which they do. A genuinely free choice. The selection is placed away from the rest of the deck, and the magician now takes the remaining cards and specifies that truly, the spectator had a free choice, and the card they chose isn’t a duplicate of any of the other blue backed cards. However, upon turning over the selection the spectator is GOBSMACKED to see that not only is the card a red backed one, it also has their name written across it’s back (or any message you whant). They suddenly feel that perhaps their free will isn’t as free as they’d thought…

REVIEW BY NING of THE LITTLE MAGIC SHOP

Gobsmacked by Costas Damianou and Simon Lovell

Here's what you get:
Besides printed instructions, a comprehensive DVD for this strong card effect and some Bicycle cards are included to get you started at once :)

Now this is what's great about it:
There are probably other similar effects available but this has the best teaching so far, and it really is a solid card effect which can be customised for corporate walkaround, it looks good and when presented correctly, is simply AMAZING because their name is written/ printed on a different colored back card. The instructions given are very detailed and easy to follow. Reset takes only 5 seconds and imho, Gobsmacked is a great walk around piece.

So, in a nutshell:
Recommended as a set you shouldn't go without, especially if you have a professional gig to do. The presentation and concept is strong, yet it's actually easy to do. The final verdict? ...Definately worth a check out! ;)

Cheers,
Ning ^_^
