Ebook - Eliminator by Adrian Sullivan

The Ultimate Pocket Card Revelation

Adrian Sullivan's Eliminator isn't just another card trick; it's a closely guarded secret that has genuinely baffled experienced magicians and mesmerized audiences with its sheer impossibility and breathtaking cleanliness. Imagine a routine so deceptive, yet so incredibly simple, that it feels like genuine magic. Eliminator delivers exactly that, offering a powerful, direct, and completely baffling revelation that you'll be eager to add to your repertoire. Prepare to witness an effect that redefines what's possible with a deck of cards and an empty pocket.

The Impossible Effect

Here's the stunning sequence that unfolds: With your back completely turned, two participants are invited to freely select a card each from a shuffled deck. Their choices are genuinely free and different every single time you perform. The deck is then shuffled once more by the participants themselves and dropped into your demonstrably empty pocket. As each person merely thinks of their chosen card, you reach into your pocket and, with no fumbling or suspicious moves whatsoever, produce their card! Then, you repeat the impossible feat for the second participant. It's a double revelation that defies all logical explanation, leaving everyone in awe.

Why Eliminator Stands Apart

What makes Eliminator a true standout in the world of card magic? It's the profound lack of common magical contrivances that often betray a trick. There are absolutely no rough-and-smooth decks, no long-and-short cards, no double-faced, double-ended, or mis-indexed cards. You won't find any marked cards, nor are there any deck switches or hidden pocket indexes involved. Crucially, there's no memory work required, and absolutely no sleights whatsoever from the performer. No forces are used, nothing needs to be written down, and there are no stooges, assistants, or secret signaling devices. This means the participants handle the deck throughout, and the selections are truly from any part of the deck.

Effortless Performance, Maximum Impact

Adrian Sullivan's Eliminator is designed for maximum impact with minimum effort. The quick reset allows for instant repeat performances, ensuring you can astound multiple groups or revisit the effect without any setup delays. The deck is entirely self-contained; nothing extra is hidden in your pocket, added, or removed at any point. For an even more audacious presentation, the deck can even be placed into one of the participant's pockets, yet you'll still be able to locate their selections with uncanny precision. And for the mentalist, the option to simply name the two selections without producing them adds another layer of intrigue and mental prowess. Eliminator is a testament to clever thinking and brilliant construction, offering a high-impact, easy-to-perform routine that will fool even the most jaded audiences.

Effect:

Listen to this: Whilst the performer's back is turned, two participants each look at a card from the deck. The selections are free choices and different every time. The deck is then shuffled and dropped into the performer's empty pocket. As each person merely thinks of their card the performer produces it from his pocket! All without a single move!!

But there's more! Check this out: The deck is fairly shown front and back at the start of the effect. The selections really are genuinely free and from any part of the deck. The participants handle the deck throughout. The effect may be instantly repeated and the selections are different every time. The deck is self-contained, nothing extra is hidden in the performer's pocket or added or removed at any time. The deck is genuinely shuffled before being placed in your pocket. If you like, it may be placed in one of the participant's pockets and yet you can still locate the selections! For the 'mental' performer, you can simply name the two selections without producing them.
