I really like it, this has way more meaning and justification than esp cards never been a fan of those. I do have trouble seeing it. But i have a way of making sure I can spot them.
Watched V-ink Video. While it played bought the product sight unseen. Glad it kill with your son, that for me is the gold standard. When we are able to gather again magic which connect us, will be needed to reconnect us. The slight worries me, but it might be a motivating shinny object. Let ya know when it gets here this week.
There are two sets of 6 cards, but the main routine uses only 5 in each set (you can swap out the Lovers for the Devil, if you have a sensitive audience). If you view it as nothing more than a "trick" then you are completely missing the point. I think magicians should stay clear of these types of effects, because the power lies not in the "trick" but in the presentation and the interaction between the mystic and the participant. In the right hands, this can be an extremely powerful effect, but the power is built not in the matching of the cards, but what you are able to reveal about the participant. The more experience you have of cold reading, the more effective it will be. I don't like the "matching of the cards" element to this (which is the bit that the average magician - as opposed to mentalist - will concentrate on), and the routine that I am developing with this system heavily plays down that element, because I think it detracts from the real power of the true heart of the system.
I have placed an order on this. I can't wait. Thanks for the review. I have been doing a 10 card ESP routine that was quite similar, but what I always hated is the fact that nobody knows what ESP cards are. I think Ben is correct by stating that simply taking out Tarot cards adds to the routine. BTW, the props do look exactly like the Rider-Waite tarot deck, front and back. I have a version of that deck and the back design is exactly the same (in blue).
Really enjoyed that review. Made me laugh re your son's normal attitude towards magic! .... I've got one like that . . . And I don't think it's just because I've force fed him with it for the last 26 years !!! 😀 👍
Sorry, I did not quite get the name and the name of the creator of the ESP trick you mentioned - and in which I should be more interested. Could you please put it in the answer. Thanks

Can you provide the name of the Larry Becker effect you mentioned? Many thanks.
Great review by the way. Well done
Thanks Daniel 😊😊🙏
Love your reviews. Thanks for this😀
Hey thanks and glad you like them. 😀
Thank you. Sounds like this is going to be good. Kudos!
You're welcome George.
I love this effect.
Me too 😊😊
Great review. How good does your eyesight need to be in order to make sure this is a successful effect......?
Once you get the hang of what you're looking for, I think most would be OK with glasses etc. But with badly impaired eyesight you would struggle.
Ben in the explanation video could still perform this trick without his glasses, so I believe that most people can perform it.

I'll chat about this tomorrow I reckon. Thanks Tom
Great review! Thanks, Steve
A pleasure Tony. Have a great weekend.
Hey, nice Review. Is the system behind comparable to the esp routine from Peter Turner at the how to read mind set?
Different.
Definitely looks like a great effect. Ive heard that this is essentially a packet trick, does it come with a full tarot deck or just a few cards?

Brilliant and thank you. It does feel loads better with the Tarot doesn’t it. 😊
In this new world of "social distancing", would this effect still be as impactful performed online via Zoom, Skype, FaceTime, etc.?
I think not for this one. I reckon it needs that connection, so one for later of those in our bubbles
Can’t do it online as you need them to handle the cards

And now I've gone and got this as well. ..... I hope my lad is as impressed as yours!
@@pinballwizard666 Ha! Sorry!
do the audience have to know about the meaning of tarot cards ?
Sorry, I did not quite get the name and the name of the creator of the ESP trick you mentioned - and in which I should be more interested. Could you please put it in the answer. Thanks
The one I used to do was ESPitome by Larry Becker.
@@RealMagicReview Thanks (from Germany)
What is the difference between real magic review and fake magic review??
Great review
Thanks Alan 🙏🏽
No problem Steve♦️♠️♦️
Are the cards gimmicked? Or can we use any Tarot cards?
Hi. No you need these cards 😊
Great review. Does the download teach you what to do if your readings miss?
Hey yep. It goes into this 😊
Seems like a great effect, however this is out of stock everywhere. A bit disappointing and misleading🙁
Finish a sentence mate - it's like you have an iron deficiency effecting your memory, which is sliding all over the place.
I have ADHD. 🤷🏻♂️
I don’t think an iron deficiency does that.
You babble babble as you go to try to deliver a review. For magic men may come and magic men may go, but you go on forever.
