      Yup, caught that too :p
      Two things that make a good magician. 1) The ability to be this chill at critical moments.
      2) The ability to change to a totally different trick if something goes wrong.

    • @andymcl92
      @andymcl92 3 года назад +1

      @@evantilley Yeah, one of the key things in magic is that the spectator doesn't know what the trick is supposed to look like. So if something goes wrong, you can (hopefully) switch to a different trick and come back to the one you wanted. Otherwise, there are plenty of tricks that have "multiple outs," meaning there are various endings you can use. One of them is usually pretty mind-blowing, and the others are cool. But since the spectator hasn't seen the trick before, they'll be impressed regardless! :)

    Only thing i have is that you should be cautious with letting the spectator shuffle - i know people who, in the process of shuffling the cards, invert some of the cards (some people do it when they riffle shuffle)
    It's probably a good idea to see how your spectator shuffle cards prior to doing this trick :)

      I saw Chris Ramsey's version,
      Where he shuffled the 'non-physic' deck and ask the spectator to do the same, this should help not disorienting the deck.
      PS his version end up mixing the entire deck together, which is more convincing to me

      I used to pretty much always put my thumbs at the top of both packets and then spin the bottom packet between thumb and pointing finger to set up a riffle. It looks like a cool sort of move, but I re-jigged that habit after seeing a magician friend's look of despair when I unceremoniously botched his brand new trick. So, I was once *that guy* lol, but we both learned a little something about spectator management that day.

    Ohhh, she could've pulled a great gag on you, Brian. As she was going through identifying possible cards and she dealt yours in the reject pile, she could have gone through the entire "hand", pick up the "possibles", concentrate really hard, bet you a soda that the next card she flips over is yours... and then fish through the reject pile for yours to flip it face down. :)

If you look closely, you'll find the 8 of Hearts, Clubs, and Spades are also one way cards. They all have 5 pips facing one way, while 3 face the opposite way. It's a bit more subtle than the 9's, but they work.

    @3geek14 4 года назад

    One danger whenever you let the audience member shuffle is that they'll mess up the orientation. At 2:13, she asked if she should do a wash, which you had to prevent her from doing.
    I first learned to shuffle from my father, who plays bridge. Since many of his decks of cards have backs with orientations, it always bothered me as a young kid that the way he split the deck and squared the cards would always rotate one of the piles. When I was learning to shuffle, I was very conscious to avoid doing that, just to preserve some small bit of order. However, since I know my father always mixes the orientations when he shuffles, I would never be able to let him shuffle the deck when I perform this.

  • @alexkross5958
    @alexkross5958 4 года назад +5

    The things that I think can also be added to this trick to make it even more difficult to figure out:
    1. Try to pick like only black cards first and then, when spectators will be like "well, he's simply picking black" surprisingly pick something like 7 of Diamonds to confuse them a bit more.
    2. Also I think it's a good idea to pick one card like Queen of Hearts to make it even more "random". The thing is that if you can't see any upside down card then you know that they picked the Queen :)

    • @j.liddle7580
      @j.liddle7580 4 года назад

      Yep. Even better if you can come up with little "stories" as to why some cards are psychic and not others. I find it helps to distract from the real reason you're picking the cards.
      For example, as a guy, I can get rid of all the diamonds with the "girl's best friend" line (maybe keep the "lucky 7"). Also, the Q♥️ fits perfectly because it has a significance beyond the face value.
