I thought the tricks were awesome. I was quite disappointed by the ending, too bad it didn't work out.

Haven't kids learned that yet these days?
I am upset about this whole thing. I also post on bodybuilding.com and there is a 4 page thread bashing blaine.
More technical slight of hand with cards was great for those soon to be coming "How to" guys. I hope Danny G's "Fraud" survives the how to geeks of the net.
how Manny of you guys hate to watch magic shows with friends and families?
all night it was like after every efect....
"Can you do that one?"
"Do you know how to do that one?"
"hey thats the one you do (Fraud) how come you never did it on T.V?"
Then at the end I get "Yo your boy messed up right?".(i never met D Blaine)
lol My brother kept saying the exact same things to me, so annoying.More technical slight of hand with cards was great for those soon to be coming "How to" guys. I hope Danny G's "Fraud" survives the how to geeks of the net.

How'd you find out all the names of them so fast?Favorite Tricks: Top Five (in order)
1. Lit - A spectator is asked to take a match out of a matchbook, and ignite a match to verify its validity. The matchbook is then held tightly in their closed fist.
A card is selected in the deck - then visually vanished under impossible conditions. The spectator slowly opens their hand to find the matchbook has visually transformed into a twisted hybrid of playing card and match pack.
2. Lottery Trick - Blaine had random spectators call out random numbers. He then pulled out a lottery ticket with each of the chosen numbers.
3. Exile - From the award-winning mind of Mathieu Bich comes eXile - an effect that literally takes place on the spectator's own hand. Three small X's are drawn on someone's open palm. A quarter is placed in the center of their hand.
Slowly, you slide your finger over each X and it vanishes. No residue. No sign of ink to be seen. Nothing. When the quarter is lifted, there are three perfect X's directly in the center of their palm.
4. George Washington - Blaine had a man take a cell phone picture of another man, then struck an outstretched dollar bill with the phone. The second man’s face appeared on the bill, in place of Washington’s face.
5. Cap through and from bottle - Blaine had a man drain a glass bottle. Blaine took the cap, slapped it on the bottom of the bottle… and the cap jumped inside the bottle. He then had another spectator hold his hands near the bottom of the bottle, which drops off by itself.

I also liked his non-prediction/vanishing deck accept one suit thing. I thought the stunt was ok, but the magic was great.
