Odd Card Routine

[Jacob L]

For those of you who purchased the Odd card. What is your take on making a routine of it? Is Lennart's intent to have it be like he performs? With the backs changing and then the fronts changing three times in succession? I feel like that would be suspicious to the audience, and they would know something is up, instead of it being magic.

An afterthought would be in how you present it. If you plan on "making money" and doing a gambling thing with it, it might not be best to change them like that. But if it's an effect, changing everything in the blink of an eye might work out.

What are your thoughts on it?

I'm looking at possibly adding it into my gambling/swindler routine. I think it would be possible to run through with different backs, then show red and black and then do face and number cards. Showing that the mark would loose every time. In my view I wouldn't be presenting it as "magic" but as a "trick" that turns the game to my favor. I'm going to play around with it for quite a while until I decide how to really use it. I'll message you when I finally settle. That being said, I could definitely see someone just using the basic effect. I like it just how it is. However, don't limit yourself to what is in the video. You could use what is taught there to come up with your own effects. The principle taught is very workable.

Nice ideas, and I'd love to hear what you come up with, we could bounce some thoughts off each other. I think doing the first part with all the same backs could be a quick effect, like how you can change the cards at will. The other half though with blue/red backs should probably be like a gambling thing, just some thoughts.

And yes, the idea is genius. I laughed out loud when he started teaching it.
