If you learn only one card trick in your lifetime, make sure
this is it!
Learn why this is Barrie Richardson's favorite card trick.
Like you, Barrie knows hundreds of card tricks, but this
demonstration is special. Here are a few of the features:
* The demonstration can be performed with anyone's cards
with absolutely no preparation.
* The effect can be done close-up sitting at a table or
as a stand-up performance piece in front of a large
audience.
* The effect can be described by a participant in one
sentence - "The card I thought of was found at the position
in the deck I selected."
* The stunt is stunning and memorable.
Comes complete with fully detailed instructions from Barrie
himself. You supply the cards and the reading.
MY COMMENTS:
This is a diabolical card trick and very powerful. It's
every bit of what the blurb above claims. There is one card
sleight required (a half-pass) and it is described within
the pages of these instructions. So there's no need to run
to your volumes of Card College. In fact, it's described on
p.109 of Barrie Richardson's first book, Theater of the
Mind.
As a note, this effect is not included in any of Barrie
Richardson's books, but it can be found on his CD Collection.
