“Blindsided 2” is my homage to “Blindsided” by Oz Pearlman. Imagine showing the audience a blank faced deck of cards. After a fun, playful gag “ACR” type routine, you reveal that the deck actually prints itself in the spectator’s hands. Everything can be examined at the end and you are ready to jump right into your next trick. The perfect opener for any card set OR instantly resets itself if you prefer to perform it as a one-off strolling or table-hopping effect.
