In the previous article, I explained a simple solution to a problem that many magicians and mentalists faced: having a crib. I used it many times and it always served me well.

It's based on the previous idea, with an added bonus: now you don't need to dispose of the crib anymore. This was not an issue before but there are situations where you might prefer not to do...

In this article, I'm going to show you a simple solution to a problem that many magicians and mentalists have been facing.
