The Forced King
Manuel García
The best packet trick reinvented
25,99€
The Forced King is an evolution of the Classic Packet Brainwave Effect. It takes it to the next level. Simply put, the magician forces the spectator to choose one card out of 52 different possibilities. This is done through very clever subtleties and the best thing is that is easy to perform.
ADDED BONUS
The Classic Packet Brainwave Effect.
The magician puts a packet of cards on the table. He says to the spectator, “Let’s play a game of imagination. Imagine that these are the four Kings.” He pantomimes plucking a card with each hand from the packet. “Imagine that I have removed two of the Kings. Do you think they are the black ones or the red ones?” The spectator says, for example, red. “That’s amazing – you’re correct!” says the magician. “Now, I will turn one of these Kings face up.”
He pantomimes turning one card over, then putting the imaginary card back into the packet. He then says, “Which red King do you think I turned over, the heart or the diamond?” The spectator says, for example, diamond. “That’s amazing – you’re correct again!” says the magician. “Of course, if it’s really true, then the King of Diamonds must be reversed in the packet. Let’s see…” He spreads the cards. One is face up. It is the King of Diamonds.
“I want to be sure you understand that this magic was accomplished by imagination, not by sleight-of-hand. Therefore, I used a King of Diamonds with a different back.” He turns over the King of Diamonds, showing that it has a contrasting back color!
“Also, because I knew you would pick the King of Diamonds, it was not necessary to use any printing on the faces of the other cards.” He turns over the three face-down cards, revealing that their faces are blank!
Comes complete with cards and instructions.

I first got the original B’Wave at a local magic store. After I opened it and began to review the instructions it seemed as if they were somewhat limited. I researched it on the internet and found out about the Deluxe edition which included a video and a few extra cards. Since then I have been looking for a packet trick that could play even bigger and better than this. Although I wouldn’t consider it a packet trick, this does indee play better and bigger. Simply impossible.
