X Cards by Lee Earle is a fantastic effect that allows you to know things about your spectators that you couldn't possibly know. Nothing is ever written down, so this is the ideal trick to break up a mentalism set, it feels totally different, yet you're still reading their mind!

This easy to learn technique gives you access to things like their birthday, their starsign, their address, even their bank details. You can discover all this information without the need for any technology at all, just a simple stack of envelopes and the knowledge you will acquire from watching Alexander Marsh give an entertaining and enlightening exposé of this well hidden gem.

Strong, clever and simple. I really thought I had it figured out when I watched the trailer and I was very, very wrong. Did you try? Well, when I viewed the tutorial I actually said ‘wow’ out loud, this is super devious. You don’t need to make, cut, paste or do any arts and crafts to accomplish this mental miracle of mind reading, just get some small envelopes which you may already have. As I was watching and leaning the routine I was really wondering how the finishing move would be accomplished (it’s not really a move at all) and again I was blown away with the simplicity of it all.

You won’t believe how quickly to will learn this effect. Alexander does some great behind the hands shots so you see from your perspective an exposed view of what you need to do. Start clean, finish clean, resets in seconds. Another option you can do is to use your business cards and mentally divine a drawing or symbol - use your imagination. Just knowing how it is done, you will derive enjoyment of how this amazing trick works even if you never perform it … but you will. It’s too good to not do it.
