Confusing to me just how limited the "any number" choice is.


Joel was making a joke with the "34-36" comment.

Looks too good to be true. So, naturally, I ordered it. Smile

I am very intrigued, but I would like to know how this differs in comparison to the earlier $6 release "InCAANtation"? Thank you!

I was worried about 'moves' but once I saw it live and got a wee tutorial my mind was put at ease.

The super clean ending with kicker is brilliant.

Propdog demo'd it today in their live. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bMXOkMr6KQ

at 49 minutes in.

I don't think this is as clean as something like SCAANDAL where your spectator can deal and there is no sleight of hand. I am curious for more reviews though.

There are no duplicates so everything can be examined at the end. There is no dodgy dealing and the sleight of hand is minimal, if any.

I rate this above Scaandal.

If there are no duplicates there is a 0% chance they have a free choice of number and you never have to do a slight. Do you have this?

Yes.
The Propdog demo shows the whole routine.
The deck is genuinely blank, only the two printed cards.

Ok. I watched the propdog and that doesn't look that good at all. The range force isn't logical to me and I think that was the best case scenario where there were no sleights or one off. I hope I am wrong though.

This is just as advertised. Watch the performance 2 spectators pick their #’s- they count down -card is a match -deck is clean- use a blank deck- or use a deck of Jokers.

Can they deal 100% of the time? I don’t think so but I could be wrong

Your entitled to your opinion, It’s a great effect.

I know, I invented it but I am biased but I do perform it all the time and it gets reactions as shown in the official trailer.
The ‘range’ does make absolute sense.

It’s a strong effect.

Best wishes,

Joel

I think Dave and Jason looked suitably impressed. The number choice is contrived but I think that flies by, especially as he number could be 16 to 49.

Great version of the CAAN plot.

16-49 is not the case

I think the construction of the number seems fair with two participants but starts to become problematic with a single participant.
