This is why like every motivation in a similar demonstrations using a similar gimmick, you need to logically have a reason and justification for the continuous pointing action - as why can't you just say with out the pointing "is it in your right hand? Is it in your left hand - you can lie or tell the truth" etc etc |

I may be wrong, don't think so, but believe this is Charles Gauci's latest idea. I know I've been doing it for a few years now and I can tell you Gauci's routine is much smoother, and there is no pointing.

What do you mean Steven 'latest idea' you mean an addition or advance on his previous release of this effect?

Hope you noticed the 'Wink with a Smile' [ ] and the word 'seems'.

No, it's not the method that counts. It's what the spectator's brain "sees".

Why is Richard Osterlind NOT a fan of this? Even after being given a review copy of this, he indicates that he is NOT using this. I am confused.
I will say that Rasmus PMed me, and this does look good. Billion |

And my point about "rolled-up sleeves" was more about the comment on pointing finger, and the gimmick being visible or not for the audience. Anyway, we'll see. 1 more day or 2... |

I'm a little concerned about the gimmick as I've not had good luck with what can be seen in the video in the past, but I did order and will give it a good go-round before writing it off.
It really "should" be easy to pass off since there should be no real heat in that area.
