THE CHEAT
A direct, incredibly easy-to-use system for secretly gaining access to written or drawn information — hidden inside something nobody would ever suspect.
They write it.
You know it.
Your participant writes or draws something.
The information is hidden.
Yet moments later, you are able to reveal exactly what they are thinking.
Peek almost anything.
The Cheat gives you access to the information that matters, without changing the way you perform.
Most peek devices try to disguise the secret.
The Cheat doesn't need to.
Because the object hiding the method was already sitting there in full view.
Your card box becomes the secret.
Transform your playing card box into a powerful peek tool that can literally vanish when you no longer need it.
The secret becomes part of something that was never suspicious in the first place.
To your audience, there is simply a deck of cards and its box.
The best secret is the one they never realise was there.
In play when you need it.
Gone when you don't.
The gimmick can be brought into play and taken out of play during the performance.
It remains under your control throughout, without creating an awkward moment or drawing attention to the method.
Once the work is done, you simply continue performing.
Built for real performance.
Multiple handlings are taught, allowing you to choose the approach that best suits your performance style and the situation.
Each Cheat is handmade and designed to be simple, practical and deceptive.
Once you understand how it works, you can concentrate entirely on the participant and the revelation rather than worrying about the mechanics.
Easy to learn.
Easy to perform.
Impossible to backtrack.
The Cheat takes one of the most powerful tools in mentalism and hides it inside something that was already there.
