The Capitulating Aces

My friend Josh fried me with this earlier today in person, I mean really fried me...

Then I texted him like late at night asking where he learned it, and luckily I was able to get a hold of it.

Now I bring this magical effect to you.

P.S. If you ever meet Gary, you need to see his pass. It is amazing.

Awesome. If you wouldn't mind can you tell me where to find the effect.

Hey, as he said it's a trick by James Swains and Gary Plants, originally going by the name Capitulating Queens. It's probably avaliable at most magic retailers.

Well done.

you can find it here.

However, the actual booklet/pdf comes with its own gimmick I believe, but I made my own.

It is very convenient to carry around, probably my most favorite "Gaffed trick"

It isn't really gaffed, but if you are a serious magician, you'll have the prop for it.

Normally, I try to avoid gaffs, but man... They make tricks so damn magical!

Nice performance.

My only advice is to work on the display of the last and final ace - you placed the other aces on the table in a blatantly different manner, and the way you handled the last ace could possibly arouse suspicion to the wary spectator's eyes...
