What you get for $30 bucks is a very powerful system/concept that allows you to do some pretty amazing magic. It works very much like a mem deck, but it's not. However, it has a ton of similar properties and abilities as a mem deck without the memorization.


The cards, however, are truly in no particular order so you can't necessarily do effects related to the position of a card like you could in a mem deck. On this DVD, you'll learn the very simple system which can be gotten into relatively easily from a shuffled deck. You'll learn how to shuffle the cards along with several routines and tips and pointers that will help you in your magic in general.


The only real complaint I have about this DVD is that the production quality was pretty poor for the price. Other than that, however, the material is taught well, and the effects possible with this principle are incredible.


Regarding the ad copy, I have two nit-picks: It claims that there is no work and no sleight of hand. Anything that claims there is no work is pretty much not true when it comes to magic. This will take practice and some work on your part . . . not near as much as a mem deck, but still you'll have to work. As for the no sleight of hand claim, in order to do the effects effectively, you'll need to do some basic false shuffles and false cuts. That, my friends, is sleight of hand.;


That aside, this is a solid product definitely worthy of your consideration.


Final Verdict:
4 Stars with a Stone Status of Gem
