"I have carried this routine in my wallet for the past ten years, and think it is one of the most entertaining and utterly mystifying routines that can be performed with a small packet of cards. I have performed it for groups of one, and groups of fifty, always with equally satisfying results.
This routine is also in the repertoire of Larry Jennings, who normally disdains routines using gimmicked cards. This is one of the easiest routines using gimmicked cards. This is one of the easiest routines I do, yet perhaps the most mystifying to a lay audience."

"'Capitulating Queens' is a fantastic packet trick with a great plot that will keep spectators amused and guessing. I've seen lots of packet tricks lately, and this is one of the best, a keeper. "

"...this effect is straight forward and the instructions are easy to understand. A nice effect that is not too difficult to do"

"Pros get the power of this one and spectators get their brains fried with it. What more can you ask for from a few playing cards? If you're not shy about using packet tricks -- or playing cards for that matter -- "Capitulating Queens" is something you need to seriously consider. It's got everything in the world going for it and nothing going against it. This one is a solid winner. "

"Each of these effects, for the intermediate card handler, is reasonably priced and worth the effort to learn."
