The story I tell is in spanish, but... it's not really necesary to undestand the trick.

Hope you like it,

Joe.

That's really great! I watched it without audio but your slight of hand is near flawless. I love how you pick out three 4's and that's impressive enough, but then the trick really comes into its own. I'm guessing it's about keeping the cards on the outside when you cut the pack and flipping multiple cards at once but honestly i can't see where you do it  :)

Well done for making your own trick, magic seems to be a dying art and you do it with such grace! Love when you flick/spin the ace  :=

Hi, nice work,

I don't speak Spanish so I missed the story, but it's a nice version of the ambitious card, (and better than mine). I particularly like the handling of the aces. My only reservation would be that your left hand look a little too stiff when dealing off the pile of fours (which turn out to be aces). It doesn't give anything away, it just doesn't look as natural as it could.

More please!

I don't have a video of it, and I haven't kept in practice for the last couple of years, so you have no competition from me as far as AGS boards magic goes!
