Forum:What reveal means in Ominous Fortunetelling

Hi everyone :)

I play YuGiOh with a good friend of mine a lot and we have come to a major disagreement about the card Ominous Fortunetelling. The card says: "During your Standby Phase, select 1 random card from your opponent's hand. Call the type of card (Monster, Spell or Trap). If you call it right, inflict 700 points of damage to your opponent's Life Points. You can use this effect only once per turn."

So I select a card at random during my Standby Phase and he turns it around and holds it far away so I can only see the color of the card and can tell what type of card it is but doesn't let me look at the card's name, attack (if it has one), effect and so on. He says that the purpose of the card is so you can do damage to his life points and see the type of card however I disagree. I believe I can look at the card and read it before he puts it back into his hand.

Please let us know which one of us is right.

Thanks,

Fox. ;)
