An instant sellout at The Session and Magifest, “Ultimate Free Choice” by Alexander Hermann is an easy to do, fooling, and commercial routine that is a ton of fun to perform

“Ultimate Free Choice” by Alexander Hermann (the very-much-alive German one, not the super-dead 19th century French one) fooled our entire team when we first saw it at The Session a few years ago. This fun and surprising Open Prediction on steroids had us screaming four letter words that would make our mothers clutch their pearls. Your audiences are going to love the kicker ending.

In fact, we encourage you to scroll back up and watch the full performance in the trailer before reading the description of the effect below.

How it Works

After informing your audience that you have a prediction in your pocket, you spread the deck face down on the table (or in your hands) and invite someone to participate in an “anti-card trick”. Instead of picking a card they want to keep, they choose a card they wouldn’t pick. This is then repeated a few more times with larger chunks of cards.

Eventually only one card will remain. Then, with completely empty hands, you reach into your pocket and remove the prediction card that’s been in there the entire time. It’s a perfect match!

Yet, nobody applauds you for this bonafide miracle. You’re very confused by their reaction until someone in the audience points out that they saw you had multiple other cards in your pocket.

What an embarrassing mistake…or was it?

They were correct. You do have multiple cards in your pocket. But, guess what? All those cards match too. Just when they thought they had you caught, you instantly floor them with a surprise ending they’ll never see coming!

“Ultimate Free Choice” uses a deviously clever method and a swift-moving presentation that eliminates much of the boring drawn out process that plagues similar routines. You might be tempted to think there’s a bunch of equivoque too, but there isn’t. In many cases there’s none at all. In the few situations where a small bit of equivoque is needed, the presentation is perfectly designed to make it completely natural and invisible.

You’ll receive everything you need to start performing right away with a red Bicycle deck. However, “Ultimate Free Choice” can also be modified to work with any deck of cards in a matter of seconds. If you’re not a fan of the multi-card “fakeout” ending, the included specially-made envelope also allows you to perform a more traditional Open Prediction single-card ending. Everything is explained in the detailed tutorial video that teaches you how to perform with confidence every single time.

Exclusive Bonus Video

Anyone who purchases “Ultimate Free Choice” directly from Vanishing Inc. will also have a special bonus video from Alexander added to their account in which he shares a variety of extra ideas and tips to help you get the most out of this routine. You’ll also get advice for performing without a table, as well as an impromptu variation that uses a named card.

  • Steven asks: Sleights involved? Suitable for a beginner/amateur?

    • 1. Dustin answers: No sleights involved, and it's absolutely beginner friendly. It just takes some time to get used to the process, and in a very short time it will be second nature.

  • Andrew asks: Is it always the same card or an it be varied?

    • 1. Andrew answers: I believe the lack of response answers the question.
    • 2. Dustin answers: Actually, it does not quite do at all. It's complicated to answer. It depends for example on the reveal you prefer. In ALL cases, different cards can be revealed in a row. If you want, you can also easily adjust it so that you are guaranteed to always have a different outcome, although that would be more efficient with the envelope method, otherwise you would need far more cards for the pocket reveal. But if your concern is whether you can guarantee different cards at different tables, yes you can.
    • 3. Matt answers: Assuming that there are at least 2 to 3 outs, correct?

  • Rick asks: Will I need to alterate/modify my pocket?

    • 1. Dustin answers: Nope. You don't even need pants. (A breastpocket works too)
    • 2. Paul answers: Well, I plan to do this at a formal wedding, so doing it without pants would be frowned upon.

  • Bernard asks: So are there any props with this trick or is it a download? And can it be done from a shuffled deck in use?

    • 1. Dustin answers: You basically get what is necessary to perform. The cards for the pocket reveal(which are all ungimmicked) as well as an envelope to use in case you prefer a handling that does not use the pocket. The handling in the video is not fully impromptu, although you will never need a special deck. At the beginning of the performance, you can easily get ready with the same deck you used the entire performance. At the end, you're automatically left with a normal deck to continue to perform. It's worker friendly
    • 2. Dustin answers: And I should add, an impromptu version is included!

  • SPENCER asks: is this a regular deck? or??

    • 1. Dustin answers: While a fully impromptu method is taught, the strongest method involves something more than just the deck. However, it's extremely easy to both get ready and end with a regular deck. Alex and I have both used it in the middle of a set many times before without any issue.

  • Dan asks: Is half the deck a force card?

    • 1. Paavan answers: No - the deck you perform with is a regular deck
