Just wondering... What effect is relatively easy, but is SO difficult to look amazing? My vote may be the Zombie Ball. What do you think?

I would say Misers Dream. The trick is good, but to make it entertaining takes a little bit of work.

Any card trick. A lot of them have potential, but most people don't have entertaining presentation skills.

For me, it's the traditional Egg Bag routine.

In the hands of say Johnny Thompson or Jeff Hobson - a masterpiece.

This effect takes true showmanship and talent to make it look good and entertaining.
