On this download you will learn three self-working, very deceptive card effects over almost 40 minutes of instruction. While they are all easy to do technically, they do require presentation skills and brain power to produce the best possible effect.

Clocked: This is a force where the spectator cuts to a random position in the deck and the magician is able to name the card they cut to.

Belly Flop: The spectator shuffles the deck and mixes the cards face up into face down. They then take 3 cards out of the deck and the magician is able to name each card.

Every Card Has Its Number: A spectator selects a card and another spectator selects a second card. The second card indicates the exact position of the first selected card.

These effects are easy to do and are sure to fool your friends and family!

Almost Automatic contains three tricks that synthesize the classic and the contemporary. Josh mentions Royal Road a few times, and it's easy to see the comparison. These tricks produce a large effect with a small amount of work. Clocked is basically a trick that consists of a force, but the force can stand on its own. It's a great, hands-off move, but it's situational. The ruse utilized is wonderful and eliminates suspicion. Belly Flop is a unique take on a classic move, and I must say, it's a dramatic improvement. Josh noticed a discrepancy and fixed it with another discrepancy, aiding to the deception of the move and producing a more large-scale effect. I would use this move mainly as a force for a routine like Collectors. That would be a great combination, and I suggest you try it. Finally, Every Card Has Its Number is Josh's twist on a CAAN plot. It's definitely not traditional, but it is 100% surefire. Its method isn't what you'd think, and Josh has cleverly constructed the routine. Again, this isn't an everyday trick, but used alongside with well thought-out patter, it will play big for audiences. The methods herein are somewhat akin to the contents of BBM's Self-Working Card Tricks series––devious and simple to do. The download itself is high-definition and easy to learn from. The only gripe I have is that muted dubstep plays during the explanations. Josh explains everything well and doesn't need music to accompany him. If you like classic magic with a new twist, I wholeheartedly recommend this download. Also, there's a little surprise somewhere, but you'll have to buy it to see what it is! Nicely done, Josh.

Clocked: Clocked is a great force where the spectator cuts the deck, and you can instantly name the card, it's a very good force. The presentation josh goes over is also very good. 5/5 Belly Flop: This is a very clean effect, the spectators touch the cards the whole time, and it's like instant mindreading, or however you want to present this 5/5 Every Card has its number: This is personally my favorite, it's an any card at any number like effect, except there's not all the hard memorization work/ hard card moves. Very very clean. 5/5 Bonus: There is a bonus effect on the download, which I love, I'm not going to go into a lot of detail, but personally I think it is worth the price of download 5/5. This is a very good download, and if you want some hard hitting magic without all the hard moves, this is for you, great work Josh.

Clocked is a clever force that is very clean and convincing. Josh goes through it step by step so it will always work. 5 stars. Belly Flop is a great multiple card peek, it's very simple and convincing. 'Nuf said, one of my favorite peeks. 5 stars. Every Card has it's Number is (yet again) another great trick. I love how clean it is and I love the fact that it is almost as if your spectator is the one who reveals where their card is. This is my favorite ACAAN plot. 5 stars. Overall this download is absolutely phenomenal, the tricks are truly almost automatic, and Josh teaches the tricks very well. I love all of the tricks he teaches and I am certain that I will use all of them, honestly, they're actually that good.
