Family Friend Foe Fake by Dustin Marks

Effect: The spectator secretly writes the first names of a family member on one business card, a friend on another card, a foe on the third card, and finally a person he has never met on the final card. The cards are mixed by the spectator. The magician identifies the name that corresponds to the correct category (Family, Friend, Foe, Fake). He does this two more times. For the kicker, the magician reveals the name written on the final card without ever seeing the name.

• Your New EDC: small, powerful, and easy to perform.
• Four Amazing Reveals: You deliver not one, but four distinct moments of magic as you reveal each category and the name on the last card.
• Incredible Kicker: The final name reveal is a true showstopper that will leave a lasting impression.
• Easy to Do: This effect is designed to be accessible, allowing you to focus on your presentation.
• Packs Very Small: All you need are four marked business cards and a pen or Sharpie, making it perfect for close-up performances anywhere, anytime.
• The Reveals are Personal: The effect engages the spectator on a personal level, making the experience even more impactful.
• No Suspicious Moves: The method is clean and deceptive. The spectator mixes the cards themselves after writing the names, creating a sense of fairness.
