Red Card by Roberto Giobbi
A polished masterpiece you can use to close your show. A closely guarded effect taught for the first time, holding nothing back.
“It’s not often you get a pro’s closer, but Giobbi’s fantastic isolated thought is here; a great script with audience participation and an amazing effect rolled into one.” – Paul Vigil
“This has been one of my most closely guarded effects in my professional repertoire. With it I have fascinated laypeople and baffled magicians around the world. If I had to keep just three tricks in my working repertoire, “The Red Card” would be one of them. I consider it one of my masterpieces, and in the explanation, which really is a mini-lecture, I do not hold back anything: You get all it takes to astonish and entertain any audience at the highest level.” – Roberto Giobbi“I recall the first time I saw Roberto Giobbi perform The Red Card. I was left with no explanation. Every solution I had was taken away. It fooled me completely. Roberto designed this effect to be the closer for his stand-up card act. Now it can be yours as Roberto is finally releasing this closely guarded secret.” – Tim Trono“When I saw the performance, I thought I was on familiar ground. But Roberto has added a twist to the method that creates new possibilities, and some psychological touches to the presentation that make the effect particularly strong.” – David Britland“A true miracle, with the masterful treatment of Roberto. The thorough explanations are full of wisdom that will lead our magical thinking into wonderful directions.” – Rafael Benatar“I am not embarrassed to admit that I had no clue how Roberto Giobbi’s The Red Card was accomplished. And after learning the secret, I now know that the method is so well hidden beneath a plethora of layers, that intellect nor experience alone can comprehend the secret. This is a CLASSIC!” – Christian Engblom
