Before anyone else votes for this, please bear in mind that it's basically a rip-off of Keith Bennett's 'Kick-Back (KB) Monte' - released by Keith in 1994.

Mega'Wave came out in 2010 so wouldn't qualify based on the category "best packet tricks of 2011." How about B'rainiac from Triabolical? That's another Bannon effect that's really nice. You can see it in the first demo under the review.

Hi Barry

I cannot believe that Garrett 'ripped off' someone elses trick. I seen Garrett live a couple of times (lecturing) and think he is just too into his magic in such a thoughtful way...

Independent creation possibly, but ripped off, I just can't see it myself.

Regards

Charlie - 'independent creation' or 'two great minds thinking alike' - remotely possible.

However, 17 years apart - adds some element of doubt doesn't it?

The "Bullet Party" effect from the Bullet Party DVD set is a really great packet effect. We're big fans of Bannon's work and this whole set is full of great card material.

17 years ago in a land far, far away..... I would have thought the greater the time the more likely of a re-invention of the wheel. But of course when it gets pointed out its a "Whoops!" moment. The person that would know for sure is Keith Bennett.
