Buenas tardes, este video lleva varios años subido en este canal pero yo lo he visto hoy. El truco me parece precioso y muy inteligente, perfecto para incorporarlo en una rutina de cartomagia. Por otro lado, la explicación de la revelación del truco, me parece MAGISTRAL, EXCELENTE. Enhorabuena, es usted un grandísimo comunicador. Muchas gracias por el tiempo que nos dedica y saludos desde España.

Cool trick. I have some ESP cards, but haven't liked the effects suggested for them. So thanks for providing a use for them.

[@powerbrain840]

a very awesome, trick!!! You're the only person who shows us some jaw dropping tricks, at the ending when the prediction matches with the self working process, I get amazed!!! Thank you!

[@andresetiawan8251]

Damn I chose Star 😱

[@android1617]

Still one of the best tricks I've seen in KZbin. You're a genius.

[@robjacks2748]

This was brilliant. Thanks a lot!

[@eldonjanzen9822]

Also to help my memory, i make the symbols in a different order. "O" one line, "+" two lines "Swiggy line"three lines, "square" four lines, and "*" star five lines.

[@mikerogers6136]

That is fantastic, thank you....

[@wulfiesmith]

excellent routine - thanks for sharing

I searched the internet for this truck but failed to find it. so I made my own esp cards exactly like like in the demonstration. My version was different but the trick worked wonderfully. I performed the trick with adult and children (ages 10, 9, & 8). This trick is an amazing pocket trick and with the correct patter, instills in the spectator absolute wonder. It was tricky to make the esp cards with the computer. I used red hard card paper. That color seemed the best choice because it did not reveal the the gimmicked cards. I also made a envelope out of the same paper which can be examined. This is the best esp card trick is the easiest and cleanest effect in my magic collection. I would still like to purchase the original card trick but the home made version is still a very well made prop. Thanks for posting this video!!

Hi Eldon, your cards you made sound fine. This is a trick I devised in mid-80s and sold thru a weekly magic magazine called ABRA. Sadly, a few years later someone told me that he had already seen a version some years before. Regarding the cards, they were made by Piatnik and were their ESP deck which contained the double faced cards too. Unfortunately, Piatnik no longer make cards.

[@eldonjanzen9822]

@@totallymagic thanks for the info. I really appreciate your reply. I review you post when I forget the details. Of course I have my own why to present the trick. Believe me it amazing the reactions i get when I do this trick!!

[@frankrecinos7158]

I work as a high school teacher and there's really only like a beige cardstock and my printer only prints in Black so the backs of my cards minus the double-sided cards they're going to have a cool black design that's also going to have a mark in it as well.

[@M3NTALMAGIC]

luv your tutorial videos mate

[@samuell.hodgesjr.1577]

Not bad. This makes a good table hopping effect.

[@RobertBallMagician]

Wonderful effect. I have one myself that will be uploading soon. 👍👍

[@totallymagic]

Great. Look forward to watching that. Let me know I'll mention it on a future video.

[@RobertBallMagician]

@@totallymagic once I upload it maybe this week I will you let you know, Thanks. 😊

[@RobertBallMagician]

Hello. I just uploaded my ESP Effect today. Please check it out. Let me know what you think. Thanks.😊

[@bonerici]

I love this trick

[@Simo68-]

Oh !! The Piatnik ESP Cards , are still available ?

[@jamesanthony897]

Uh, sorry...I chose the wavy lines.

[@VictorLamme]

"or as we know it, ... an envelope" LOL

[@totallymagic]

LoL, yes I can talk rubbish sometimes!!!!

[@eldonjanzen9822]

This trick i use all the time. I searched to he internet to buy this, i failed to find it. I made my own using the printer. It's tricky to print the symbols to look exactly the same centered on both side. I use hard stoke color paper. Blue and red paper work really well

[@totallymagic]

Good to hear. Yes its one of my favourite ESP effects this one.

[@NielsH.]

can someone tell me where i can buy this kind of cards? i coulnt find it

[@mitch5991]

I enjoyed this trick so much I went looking to buy the gaffed cards; but, alas, I was unable to locate them. Does anyone have any suggestions where I might be able to purchase them? I'd rather not have to make them (I'm not that talented ;-) )

[@eldonjanzen9822]

I could not find the commercial version so I made my own. If you like I could send you a PDF of instructions and print out version that I made.

[@pinballwizard666]

I managed to make my own simply by using a blank deck, a double blank deck and a thick Sharpie.

[@eldonjanzen9822]

@@pinballwizard666 i liked the printed version more than drawing the symbols. (My handwriting sucks)

[@cmororton]

Wow

[@wulfiesmith]

where did you get your double faced ESP cards from, please?

[@totallymagic]

These ESP cards were old PIATNIK playing cards, not sure they are made now. I did upload another video that does the same effect using regular cards, these I simply glued cards back to back. Thickness didn't matter as only I handle the cards.

[@gusdeeks8801]

I didn't work for me. I picked the cross, and as he said that you can change your mind and pick another if you want to ( I stuck with the cross )

[@emptus]

Hello, do you know where to buy theese cards? Thank you

[@totallymagic]

I just buy from sellers on eBay, search out ESP cards

[@chicxulub2947]

I chose the ball... IDK why... Maybe my mind got more of the drawing on the back of the cards instead

[@defendtheblueline5325]

i choose star

[@fingersmaster]

Right... there's one weakness : in the audience's mind, your selection has clearly been inserted face down. Now, considering that flipping the Sanctuary over is not supposed to be noticed by the audience, do you really think that later, when you finally pull your selected card, they won't mind that it is now face up ?

[@funjuror]

In my experience with the lay public you can get away with many illogical actions,people just don't see,and have little time to go over the minucia as they follow a plot.Also a bit of audience management helps,,they do not know the outcome(that is why you don't,in most cases repeat an effect)In my 40 years of performing magic for a living,I have discovered you can get away with almost anything,no matter how obvious.

[@mikerogers6136]

Good point. How do I view the Reply??

[@SidneyJupiter]

People are so brain fucked they don’t realise

[@CommishsPlace]

Wrong... I selected the wavy lines and did not change my mind...

[@joaofilho7134]

It's not an interactive trick bro kkkkkkkkkk

[@p.v.5142]

I still don't get it. Yes, I'm that stupid.

[@behelpful5010]

But I chose square , I was thinking some magic is going to happen with my square

[@jamiemiller8678]

I chose the square too! I was really hoping he'd guess my card through my phone

[@magicofpaulcom]

solution to next card = + 2
