David Garrard and Jim Steinmeyer Present: Alan Wakeling’s Name Matrix

Magician places cards numbered 1-25 on the table in 5 rows and in numerical order. A prediction card is placed off to the side or given to the spectator to hold. Making free choices, the spectator eliminates all but 5 of the cards. These are totaled, and the total matches the prediction. As a kicker, the 5 cards are turned over and they spell the spectator’s name!

Includes a bonus effect:

The New Matrix same effect as above, but the 5 cards always spell the word magic?
