Devestation by Mark Elsdon

If you own Cataclysm You should really check this little beauty out!

The DEVASTATION Effect:

· The performer freely shows a deck of cards, the backs of which are numbered 1-52. He also places down an envelope containing a prediction.

· Three spectators name a random number each as you run through the face-down deck and the cards with those three numbers are removed. They are openly turned over to show exactly which three cards they are e.g. Ace of Clubs, Six of Hearts and Jack of Diamonds.

· The envelope is now opened and inside is a photograph. Impossible though it seems, this is a photograph of exactly those three cards lying on a table: the Ace of Clubs, Six of Hearts and Jack of Diamonds.

FYI: All 52 numbers are seen and the number selections are free. Different numbers every time you do the trick. Only one photo is used, no multiple outs.

This is a killer trick to perform immediately after Cataclysm.

They form a powerful one-two punch, where the whole is definitely greater than the sum of the parts. The methods are diametrically opposite with each one cancelling out the possibilities of the other, which makes for an extremely fooling combination.
