We knew we had a winner with Boris Wild's Wild Poker Trick, but iTricks.com's Derek Merdinyan has confirmed it.
You can read and hear his review here, but here's my favorite part:
"As far as packet tricks go, I really want to commend Boris Wild and the crew at Fun Inc for putting out a packet trick that goes above and beyond what this humble magic reviewer has come to expect."
On this fine Monday morning, I'm pleased to announce a schedule of upcoming releases from FUN.
Boris Wild's Wild Poker Trick: Five cards are shown to your audience. They represent your poker hand - and a poor one, at that. With a deft turn of the wrist and a snap of the fingers, the mis-matched cards instantly and visibly change into the winning hand - a Royal Flush in spades!
Easy to do, no sleights required. A very clean, direct effect from FISM card champion Boris Wild. Included is a DVD with step-by-step instructions from Boris himself, and all the necessary cards printed on Bicycle stock from the U.S. Playing Card Company. Available Monday, April 21.
Shellraiser: Underground legend Troy Hooser presents all the basic techniques needed to master the most deceptive gimmick in coin magic: the Expanded Shell. This secret weapon makes visual eye-popping magic possible - and easy to do. Troy teaches 10 routines, along with all the necessary moves, tips and sleights.
Plus, included in every copy of Shellraiser is a precision-made Expanded Half Dollar Shell - a $25 value - absolutely free! Available Monday, May 14. Duplicity: The second installment of John Bannon's acclaimed Fractal Card Magic trilogy. Duplicity is John’s classic mental card transposition — not unplugged or on steroids, but reloaded!
A red-backed Ace from one packet changes places with a blue-backed Ace in another packet. The selected Aces appear face-up in each respective packet, then their backs prove to be different. As a final climax, all of the other cards in each packet are blank. Everything is examinable. Available to dealers starting Monday, May 28.
