"The Peek-A-Boo deck is the most astonishing marked deck on the magic scene today. It is a simple to use. You volition know instantly the thought of card without seeing the face. There are no difficult codes or mark system to acquire. You don't accept to memorize anything! Instantly read the card's identity." So since this is a new release from Bob Solari I had to get information technology and come across what it was most.
Well I received it on Monday and I used it Thursday night. This is the easiest marked deck I have always run into. I combined the "Peek A Boo" deck with another outcome I was already doing and the "Peek A Boo" deck turned the issue into a winner. I used the "Peek A Boo" deck as in a reverse invisible deck routine. I had many compliments after. There are many other tricks taught on the DVD that the "Peek A Boo" deck can be used for. I likewise recall that you can come up with your ain handling every bit the "Peek A Boo" deck is very easy to read the marked cards. You will say to yourself, "Why didn't I think of that!" Information technology is that skillful. Some other Bob Solari effect that works similar magic. Requite this one a endeavour, you volition similar it, it is a worker, no reset required.

Glad you are happy with information technology, simply, this blazon of deck was discussed wayyy back in The Jinx and a decade earlier in The Sphinx.
I am Non implying that Mr. Solari's method is the same. I am but mentioning that published methods that attain this go back at LEAST 80 years and perhaps more than.

Non to hijack the thread merely I recently stumbled upon McCabe'south Marking System, which sounds interesting as well - anyone with a detailed view on this? PM welcome since this thread is about some other production....

I just received a Peek A Boo Deck. While information technology has its place, it is not the best choice for me:
- the location of the marks make handling/spreading the deck somewhat risky. Information technology is much easier than I would have suspected for portions of the marks to exist seen - spreads must exist clean, and 1 piddling jostle of the cards will reveal the markings. With proper care, yes, it certainly can be washed, just I instead took another deck, added markings in a slightly unlike location, and the risk was nearly eliminated.
- In return for a very clean method of knowing what card a spectator selects, you give up some flexibility - normally the case! For instance, you cannot mix or cut the deck, though y'all can show it freely enough to disarm most suspicion; the markings are such that they must be completely hidden at all times, which with intendance, tin can be done; the deck can be used for no other purpose. There is another marketed event that allows you to do this exact same method of knowing a peeked card, but the cards can be freely shown (well-hidden marks) and can exist used for other effects (though yous would accept to re-set the deck in order to employ it as intended).
- In its favor, at that place is absolutely no doubt in the listen of the spectator that they are looking at a 52 menu deck and that each bill of fare is different. Nice and clean, here. Plus, they are easily the easiest marks to come across of any marked deck I have encountered, which is a plus and a minus (run across above).
The dvd includes 4 effects that are variations on the same theme (naturally). Probably the best is that last event, used in conjunction with an Invisible Deck, in which the spec does not demand to even proper name the thought of card. This same effect can be done with other gaff decks, only perhaps not quite so cleanly. There is no heat on the PAB Deck, and this is where the PAB Deck is used to its best advantage.
My ex-cat was named "Muffin". "Vomit" would be a better name for her. AKA "The Evil Brawl of Fur".
