00:00 Okay, let's look into the details, the handling of the case.
00:04 You're going to remove the deck of cards from the pocket, like so.
00:08 Just keep the fingers and thumb on the sides and press it against the side of the deck.
00:13 Your index finger goes on top and you can actually show all sides.
00:18 While holding this case and cards towards your body, your thumb, in fact your nail,
00:24 comes underneath to open up that piece of tape and you can actually open up the flap, like so.
00:30 Then you're going to remove the deck, like so.
00:33 What actually happens is you're going to pull the whole deck with gimmick away from the magnet.
00:39 Of course this happens towards your body.
00:41 Continue to open and place the deck, or in fact the card case, I'm sorry,
00:45 on the table like this with the flap towards the spectators.
00:48 That actually gives a perfect cover so they can't look inside the case
00:54 because there's in fact no bottom at this point of the trick in the case.
00:57 Right now, what I wish to do is to have a spectator select a card from the deck.
01:01 You can show the cards to be different, like this.
01:05 You can spread it.
01:07 Of course, this is the gimmick card. It's underneath the deck, like so.
01:10 At any time, keep this card on the bottom of the pack.
01:13 No matter what you do, card stock, whatever you wish to do,
01:16 make sure this card ends up on the bottom of the pack with the sticker upwards,
01:21 so away from your body, magnet down.
01:24 So spectator, take any card you wish.
01:28 Perfectly, they can look at the card. That's it.
01:30 The reason why I have them select the card is that I, after case, can straight go into my material.
01:36 I can straight go into my card trick and pull their attention by saying,
01:40 "Write your name on the card."
01:41 That keeps the focus on that trick that I'm doing with them right after I've done cased.
01:47 So, they have a card.
01:48 What I'm going to do now is just to take a break underneath the gimmick.
01:53 In fact, the gimmick card, one piece of the gimmick, like so.
01:57 And you're going to take the box from the table.
01:59 Make sure if you take it, your thumb goes from behind,
02:03 and your finger is going to actually close the lid, like so.
02:09 So this is the position.
02:12 Now you're going to apparently place the whole card case on top of the deck.
02:15 What happens is basically this.
02:17 You're going to feed the whole deck, except for the gimmick on the bottom,
02:21 into the cutout of the card case.
02:24 And this, the gimmick with the magnet, snaps in place due to the magnet, like that.
02:30 So this is now the situation you have, all right?
02:36 You're going to place the deck on an angle.
02:39 Now this is covered by your hand, so this angle is good, the front is perfect,
02:42 and this can also be done with a little bit of audience management.
02:45 But the angles are really, really, really good.
02:48 It's almost surrounded.
02:50 This is what you're going to do.
02:51 You're going to open up the lid, and there's a motivation for that,
02:54 so the top of the card case.
02:57 What you say is usually if you want to place the deck inside the card case,
03:00 you need to open up the front and place them inside.
03:05 So what you do now is you have a motivation in order to opening this lid of the card case,
03:13 and at the same time it's needed for the deck to go in.
03:17 And it's pretty nice because the lid is shut like this.
03:21 It also keeps the card nicely flush underneath it, like so.
03:25 So there you go.
03:27 You say usually if you want to place the deck inside, you need to open up the card case.
03:29 If you do this, slightly angle the whole thing a little bit downwards.
03:35 You don't want them to peek like that.
03:36 You don't want them to see the sticker or inside at this point.
03:38 Again, the flap is a pretty good cover for them not to look inside the card case.
03:45 And make sure you also open up these little side flaps here, like so.
03:48 And that's it.
03:50 The only thing you need to do now is simply as you make a motion forwards,
03:56 this finger is going to push in the deck.
04:01 At this point, it's done.
04:03 Take your finger, open up this flap, and the illusion has completed.
04:08 They see the whole deck inside the card case.
04:12 And indeed, at this moment, the trick is done in the mind of the spectators
04:16 because they've seen the case, all sides, the deck, you spread it, they took a card,
04:21 place it on top, and boom, instantly they penetrate the card case.
04:25 And if you open it up and they see the card is inside the case, the trick is over.
04:30 At that point, tilt the deck a little slightly towards your body like this
04:35 and slightly let go so all the cards can come out.
04:38 You do it towards your body a little bit as you move the deck,
04:41 and you offer the trick is over.
04:43 And you end up with, again, all sides card case.
04:47 What I do is usually I just place it back in the pocket
04:51 and go straight into my card work.
04:53 At this point, they took a card, and I give them a marker and ask them to sign the name on the card.
05:00 And from there, I go into my ambitious and whatever you like to do.
05:05 And that's basically it. These are the basic handlings to do so.
05:09 So I think personally there's also no need to let them examine the card case
05:15 because there's no reason for it.
05:18 As I said before, the cards are back inside the case,
05:21 and from that point on, the trick is over in the mind of the spectator.
05:24 Simply remove it, boom, put the card case in your pocket and go from there.
05:28 So personally, I don't think there's no need to examine the card case.
05:32 You can, however, switch the card case.
05:34 So you simply place another card case in your jacket,
05:37 and after your favorite card routine or whatever you've done with your spectator after the case,
05:41 simply switch out, just take out that card case, place it in, and place the whole thing back on the table.
05:48 It might be a bit overkill, but if you feel uncomfortable with it,
05:51 you can always choose to switch it if you want to.
05:53 It's very easy and well-motivated.
05:55 So this is the basic handling.
05:57 The reset, it is very simple.
06:00 Simply take the gimmick, place the cards back inside the case.
06:11 This locks in place. The flap goes underneath the card gimmick.
06:18 Give a little pressure, and that's it.
06:20 So now you can put it in your pocket and do it straight away at another table or on the street.
06:26 And that's it. Very simple.
