What makes this version different? The deck is examined and shuffled by a spectator before the effect begins. The cards are freely shown to be different(no glued together cards)to the audience. Once the deck is banded, the performer lifts up the various parts of the deck showing the audience DIFFERENT CARDS as he explains how to peek at a card.
The SAME deck is tossed out and three people each peek at a card. Immediately and with NO FISHING, the performer begins to divine each person's card, correctly telling that person something about his or her card. Read that again, you tell each person something about the card, such as the value or color. Finally the performer correctly names all three cards.
Those who saw Devin perform this can attest this method floored the magicians in attendance, and few had any idea as to how it was done until the secret was shown.
- ONLY ONE DECK IS USED
- NO SWITCHES!
- DECK IS ACTUALLY SHUFFLED BY A SPECTATOR AT THE BEGINNING
COMPLETE WITH SPECIAL BICYCLE DECK AND DETAILED INSTRUCTIONS.

As the ad copy states..this is another tossed out deck. Is it better than the others? It depends on what you want. There are so many versions of this classic of mentalism that it becomes difficult to distinguish which method is better than which.
The ad copy is essentially correct. Devin might be stretching reality a little but from the audience perspective, what is written is correct. (I am not sure what he meant by “no glued together cards”. However, there are no glued together cards.)
I have used many variations of the tossed out deck over the years of my performing. Is this the best? As I said at the beginning, it depends on what you want it to do. I would ask someone to imagine what their frame and script is for doing this effect. How do they want the blocking to look? Then after they have thought this out, purchase about 5 or 10 versions of this effect and compare them. See which method suits their performing style, methodology, and needs.
Can I recommend getting this one? Absolutely. The price makes this one a steal. Is it the best? . . . . depends.
