good one dude . you have done it well. I know the trick thats why i wasnt impressed so much .But if had not known the trick.........it would have been awesome!!!! 5/5 man
nicely done... but I have a few comments, if you dont like them fine, bit are things that i think could really improve your presentation... the moves where perefct, but, when you count the 5 "chances" you already know wich the card is... I think it'd be better if you guess it rather tahan they telling youy wich one is... also befores showing that the selection is gone, why dont you make a false count, showing there are still 5 cards (even if there are not) and then make it vanish... and dont tell, its gone... and then show there are four cards... amke them realise there are only 4 cards and they will shock even more, or at least I think so, its totally your choice.... I did like the "fin your card" part, made them realise the card was turned over by themselfs.... once more, this are only comments, its up to you whether keep it the same or apply my kind of presentation, if you think it would improve and if it goes with your style... anything you need you can contact me
5/5
It was okay, I think you may want to be a little more alive in your performance though. Make sure you tell the spectator what you are going to do that way they expect it to be upside down in the pack. Overall, just get some more energy and be excited about it.
If you want to check out a great version of this, check out Oz Pearlman's version at penguinmagic. His is the one I have been performing for years and it is really, REALLY good. It also allows you to change it up for your style. 3/5 for me.
Dude, you totally kicked yourself in the but there.. In the video, you told them what was going to happen.. Maybe it was on purpose, because you wanted them to realise that the card was turned facedown, but still, they didn't even know that the card was IN the deck of cards, so according to me, that TOTALLY ruined the trick. I think the tricks climax is that the card ends in the deck. I would never do The Biddle Trick that way.. But other than that, it was a great performance, they liked it, and i guess that's what counts. :) Heads up for making a video of a live-performance.
it was ok you did the moves and everything right but u didnt really have any persantation for this its a great efect but u should have did something so it wasnt so bland i use this effect in my closeupwalk around all the time and on the streets and make people scream just have a good story a reason ..a moment when the magic happens and u will be fine overall 4 out of 5
The way I see it, if you look at the spectators face, you can judge how good the performance is. Speechless can be your loudest reaction. I Would Like to see Your video of Biddle effect live, send me a link so i can get a better comparison on do's and don'ts
When the effect starts... try to be a bit more... into it.
Also, I always "take the card invisibly", and place it in the deck to the other direction... That way it makes sense for the card to be in the deck.
The way you performed it was also good, but what I love to do... Is when they go threw the deck and miss the face down card, I say: "oh... it didn't happen yet..." snap my fingers; "and now it happened!".
Try that next time they miss the card... and on the second time, really make them go threw the cards slowly.

Always love seeing live performances. When he was going through the deck at the end, I would had said something like "Notice now out of the deck, there is only one face down card. Could it be possible?...." Turn over the card and let it speak for itself. Overall your performance style is a bit different than mine, but I do think you should had said something like that because I think it would had made the impact bigger. Nice job. :)

Love seeing the live video! I think you could have done a bit better with the performance...it was a tad bit dry for me, but a pretty good perfomance overall. Keep it up.
