Hi, every one. Today, I am going to perform and teach you how to do a very easy self-working card trick. Let me first do the performance. I have a regular deck of cards. We are going to have one selected randomly, want to save that one, right there. I would like yo to do at home is just remember that card.
We are going to go ahead and place it face down on top of the deck and give it a cut. Now, it is really neat. It is just by my fingers, just like a star. I just found your card. Let me show you what I mean. We fan through the deck and see one card is now upside down. Now, I know what you are thinking, that is not my card. I know that but this card tells me something. You can see it is out of this base so that is telling me that your card is seven down under that card.
Let me show you, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven. Your card is the ace heart card. Now, that I have teach you how to do this magic trick, like I said, varies is going to do and self-working. You will need a complete deck of cards. Once you have your deck, remove the seven spades. Here is the secret how. Go to the bottom of the deck and count six cards, one, two, three, four, five, six. Take your seven spades, put it face up on the top of those six cards. So, you will have one, two, three, four, five, six, the seventh card from the bottom of the deck should be your seven spade turned face up.
Once you have this set up, close the deck of cards and you are ready to go. That is all you need to do from that point forward, you go to a spectator. You ask him to take a card. Obviously, do not let him go to the bottom, control the cards, let them removed one, take a look at it. In this case, seven hearts, they placed it face down at the top. You let them cut the deck. Now, at this point, you can have them just weigh in their hands over the deck and tell them that you found their card. And therefore, you have crossed to this point because they are thinking how that you found it already.
You take and fan the pack and immediately they will say that is not their card. You say, I know that but this card tells us something. In fact, this card tells us that your card is seven down from this card and they go, “Really? Let me see.” And then you count down, one, two, three, four, five, six, and tell them would that not be interesting, if this card seven down is your card and of course they will say yes and then you come up and turn this over. Of course, it is their card that they chose the seven hearts.
I hope you enjoyed this self-working card trick. As you can see it is very easy to do and yet it is very impressive. So, go out. Get a deck of cards and give it a try. Have a great day.
