The Effect
The four kings are taken from a pack of cards, and put into the magician's pocket. The magician spreads the deck towards him, and pushes it back to form a neat pile of cards. He covers this with his hand, and slowly takes it away to reveal four cards. - The four kings, which are shown front and back. The deck is actually in the magician's pocket.
What You Get
I found the parcel on my bed (my Dad put it there, not the postman
) and I immediately opened it. You get the DVD, and the gimmick.
Delivery Times
The delivery times were outstanding. I opted for the cheapest, $8 shipping from the USA to the UK, and I received it in a week. Brilliant work, T11.
Aaron's Teaching
In my HONEST opinion (and as harsh as this may sounds - sorry Aaron), I think that Aaron is absolutely brilliant.
He really does go through everything with you - the handling, how to perform it for one person, how to perform it for two, how to perform it surrounded. Even how to perform it on stage! He goes through everything you need to know, I was performing it within 5 minutes (only to a mirror, but whatvever). Aaron's friendly too, he's funny and nice with how he teaches you, he's not loud and he doesn't bark instructions at you. Hell, he even made a joke about his ex-girlfriend!
Difficulty
Easy. Someone who knows basic sleights, and how to handle a pack of cards confidently will find this trick a doddle.
EXTRAS
Aaron teaches you a different, more complex version of PANIC, called Widespread Panic. It's longer, and a little harder. To be honest, I prefer the regular PANIC trick.
Gimmick
HAHA, when I first opened the package and discovered the gimmick, (even though I was alone), I just said out loud, "No way. No way! There's no way that this guy's making money off this! Oh my God!" It was like being shown the secret to the whole trick. Only thing I can fault is that it may be easy to lose.
Reactions
I've only performed this for my Mum (who's quite bright - she usually figures out everything I do), and at the end of the trick she simply said; "Wait, didn't you just have a whole deck?" I nodded. "But... where'd it go?". Priceless. And then, unbelievably, for the first time in my life, she said to me; "How did you do that?"
I always show her everything in my tricks (she's almost like my agent lol), and I almost had to prepare her for the secret. I said to her - "You ready?".
And then I showed her - and she laughed out loud, and said "That's brilliant!".
OVERALL
8.5/10 - Perfect for the close-up or street magician, but this trick can still be performed anywhere. If you want an effect that's HARD-HITTING, and will get you a reputation, purchase PANIC. It's well worth every penny, although you'll wanna look after your gimmick well. May be easy to lose/wreck.
