Today I went to my local magic shop, and one of the items i purchased was Nailed. I was practicing for quite a while, and i performed it for my step mom. And i pulled hte picture out halfway and i told her to pull the rest of it out (btw again one arm so i cant pull it out and conceal the gimmick) and i said put the picture down on the table face down...she outs it face up, and you could see the King of Clubs instead of the 4 of Diamonds. I had no idea what to do but thankgod it was just for her and not like 10 people. i was wondering if this has happened to anyone else before?

This is the one with the pic of the card nailed down right?

I guess don't let the spec pull it out. Pull it out with your mouth, I guess, then put it face down the table.

i shall tell u exactly how i perform this trick, i have to admit i never bought it i made my own and after a little playin about instead of usein a regular size photo i cut it up so that it was just slightly bigger than a playin card. this serves 2 purposes. 1 it makes it easier to hold and hide the secret naturally when takin the photo out and 2 it makes it possible to carry around in ym wallet for when i'm workin on the street

now because it fits in my wallet i there fore need to take my wallet out to get it.
in doin so i can place the plastic sleeve behind the wallet as i remove the card...it looks perfectly natural to do it that way as i have to hold my wallet as well as the picture, plus i can then either just place the wallet on the table still hiding hte secret or i can put it in my pocket also hiding the secret.

i beleive this will help u a lot if u only have one arm as u are then able to remove the picture from the plastic sleeve with ur teeth place the wallet and plastic sleeve in ur pocket or on thetable out the way and then remove the picture from ur teeth and place it face down by ur self then continue with the trick

hope that helps a little bit in tryin to re work ur presentation
