The Christ Ace Trick

This is my handling of the Henry Christ Four Ace Routine. I am not a big fan of four ace routines because they seem to premeditated. Why do you need to use the four aces? When you use four aces it seems like a rehearsed routine. But by using four selections instead I feel it becomes a much stronger effect. It has a more impromptu feel. Especially when you spell to a card you didn't even know the identity of. Also having them sign the cards gives you time to set out your four packets with no heat on you. I also prefer doing most of the counting and spelling in my hands without setting the deck down. I could of done a different revelation for the final selection which could of been done in the hands as well. This just comes from working restaurants and rarely having room to set things down. The final revelation is a Lee Asher idea. Its a very stylish way to reveal a selection.

Where did you learn this great effect?

@edblaster2000

It's been around a long time it's called

Henry Christ's 4 Ace Trick.

[BlackMagicCurse]

What's the deck called?

[kammagic]

@BlackMagicCurse Those are Streamlines. They only cost $1.00 at Wal-mart.

[PermittoNex]

@kammagic you use streamlines? i hate plastic.

[kammagic]

@PermittoNex it's a good idea not to limit yourself to any one particular kind of deck. The last thing you want to do when someone asks you to do a trick is have to run and get your favorite deck. You should be able to use any deck handed to you.

Nice trick.

[MastahMich]

Nice stuff. You are more that kind of dude that has not a million of sleights, but just some that you mastered very well, aren't you?

I am not using any technique or spelling that is different then the original Henry Christ's 4 Ace trick. You should have no problem recreating this effect.
