Really great routine mate, really did enjoy it, from a laymen point of view it would totally fool anyone, and by own admition i was fooled by the first phase :P I love that feeling, very rarly come by it. Very well done, im looking forward to the next video. Nice touch with the 'club mistake', is that a derren brown thing? thanks

Actually mis-calling a card is a very old method, and is actually suggested in Carneycopia, the book in which Sanverted is found. Oh, and TokyoUW? You took the world's best effect, and somehow improved it, my hat tips to you. Your handling is almost perfect, and I love your spread, just one thing, the first time you did it, you put the aces on the bottom one at a time, I dunno if that suits your style, but this effect should be as simple as possible. Also, don't be afraid to flash that bottom card once in a while, just to subconsciously prove that there really are black aces in there. Once again, well done. :D Mind if I use this routine?

great job but it sounded like you were a bit nervous because you talked a bit fast. that's just my take on it. Still, i liked it.

Hehe, thank you. Actually, it wasn't so much that I was nervous, but that I am not used to performing in English. I live in Tokyo and I usually perform in Japanese. Haha.

Yeah I was thinking about that. But I think the change I will make is the speed in which I do the second phase. I like that the two phases have the same ending/ effect, but the second one I want to just present as simpler/smoother, yet with the same "Impossible" outcome.
