    My favorite part is the audience reaction to the finish. They are all his peers, fellow magicians, so when he does the hammy fake palm at the end, the laughs spread... Then he reveals the empty palm to a roar as he asks if ahe wants to change cards - A coup de gras that absolutely destroys the room as he reveals the signed queen.
    Their reaction in the moment tells you everything you need to know. This is a masterpiece,and his peers all know it instantly.

    After watching hundreds of these videos and learning a few tricks, I can sometimes tell where a card or coin is. I never see it go there, but you know it's there. There wasn't a single point during this whole performance where I knew where a card was or what was going to happen next.

For the person that got me into slight of hand, and the person making me want to continue, magic is fucking dope. Don’t ever quit.

    The only thing I can think of as a method for the last Queen is that the whole side that is closest to the spectator is loaded with Queens. He squigles over the Queen in the begining to make it easier to mistake it for the rest in the deck. Other than that, I have zero clue. It's pure joy to watch. I love Lenart Green so this is totally in the same style and I can't get enough of it.

    I think he had severals of the same signed card. It was first signed by the spectator but then he added took the pen and rubbed it around on the card so that it would look like the prepped signed cards. And got the feeling he was adding a bunch of queens... and when counting to 5 I think he many possible ways to exit the trick as if you look it seems the third card on each pile was turned so I think he was prepared for another exit strategy if required.

    • @mikesrandomchannel
