    As someone who is trying to get back into things that bring me life, doing card tricks has brought me joy again. I love seeing people's faces in awe trying to figure out what I'm doing. These are great to great tutorials 🙌

      So glad you have rekindled your joy for card magic, there is a lot to love about it and about the ability to share that joy with other people.

      Magic, conceptually isn't realistic. We know that. The real magic is in the wonder on the spectators face. The not knowing; and this deception always brings a smile upon my face.

    Excellent. Love your effects. One word of caution: When you spread the cards to divide into 2 packs , make sure you keep the cards above the 3D together. I messed up by splitting them the wrong way ... duh !! Lol... In presenting the deck . My way to do this : Spread cards face down and ask - " are any of these cards face up ? " they say no .. Now turn them over and say - are any face down? - they'll say no .. now pick them up and spread them in your hands , slowly adding, and all the cards are mixed right? - at this moment you can cut at the 3D and kinda compare packets , saying OK, this looks like 2 evenly cut packs -- which one do you want ?? Boom ! Nice touch-- makes no difference who has which packet . ❤

    I’ve been getting back into card tricks and this is probably the best one I’ve found yet. No sleight of hand, self working, and an absurd level of perceived fairness. Great job!

  • @HimesMagic
    @HimesMagic 4 месяца назад +3

    This is an OLD effect and I’ve always loved it. I used to keep a folded paper with multiple folds that would reveal the predictions. Ended up opening to a full page showing the final prediction. Good stuff. EDIT: made this comment before the video finished. I see you mentioned the paper. Mine was printed out but same idea. 😂

  • @msaikaly2626
    @msaikaly2626 4 месяца назад +10

    Great effect!
    I've done this a few times and made adjustments to my setup pile.
    The odd card is placed in the middle of the setup pack instead of the bottom and I use a black card on the bottom as my spotter. Spread the entire deck faceup to start to show everything and then create my two piles from there.
    An extra final reveal I use, I have another full deck of cards in the box on the table beforehand and mentioned I've also made a prediction the day before revealing in the other deck a face down card being the final odd card.
    Reactions are pretty amazing. During the shuffling process, I let them riffle shuffle etc, do all the mixing.
    Thanks for sharing this trick.

    I saw this trick a good five years ago, i really gobsmacked when i saw it, then surprised how straightforward it is to do.
    Your is different in a big way, especially when you shuffle the cards together. Yours is a lot quicker and easier to do.

  • @Jason-Moon
    @Jason-Moon 3 месяца назад +4

    I think this is a great trick to follow another trick where you force the three of diamonds to be their chosen card. Also: I think the effect has much more impact if you leave the cards entirely in their hands after you split the deck into two packets. You can just instruct them easily from then on. They can shuffle both packets to their heart's content. You can explain to them how to make the flowers out of the packets. They can flip and mash to their heart's content. Once they've finished flipping/mixing and done the last flip and squished the piles together back into one, It doesn't even matter if they're in a neat pile. All that matters from there is which cards are face up and the fact that they match your prediction. Squaring the deck up yourself just creates unnecessary suspicion even though It's actually fair and you're not actually changing. anything. If they do everything after you split the deck for them, and you never touch the cards again during the trick, it will hit much harder.

    I started a new social care job recently, supporting young males in residential care. They were having a bbq today: I'd made it known at my interview I liked doing card magic.

    Great trick. I do this one. But my predication says:
    25 cards will be face up.
    10 cards will be black.
    They will all be clubs.
    Some one will point out that one card is the Ace of spades. I then show my lady predication. So that's the trick done yippee.
    However I finish by then showing everyone that there is the Ace - 9 of clubs
    And the Ace of spades
    I then show them that 15 red cards are Ace to king of diamonds (13).
    And the Ace and 2 of hearts.
    That really blows anyone away.
    Love your channel.

    So this trick could be done with any cards, and any number of cards as long as it doesn't look too uneven. Which means you could make any prediction you like in any way, which is nice. My first thought was to have a second deck of cards where the top cards are the same, in a random order, and use them to predict what cards should be.

    Great trick. Question: When the spectator is moving the cards from one pile to the other do they have to do it back and forth so when the move cards from the set up pile the have to take cards from the other pile and put them in the set up pile? Regardless of how many times the do this. (Your card magic course is the foundation of my newly acquired card magic performance. As a beginner that course has been outstanding. Hope you make more courses for card magic.)

The professional magician responded by snapping his fingers and produces the whole deck of cards in his hand. Tilli now i am still wondering if such a trick can be done, or just a special effect 🤔

      You can omit the Rosetta shuffle with those spectators. Just have them cut some off one pile, turn them face up and then riffle shuffle them into the other pile. You can always do the riffle shuffle for them and have them push the cards together. I much prefer not to touch the cards and have them do the mixing.
      I think selecting spectators that are used to handling cards is key. You can see this when you hand the cards out for shuffling at the start. Watch them shuffle and you’ll be able to tell the people are used to handling cards and the ones least likely to drop them. Hope this helps.

    Question: Does it matter what shuffle is used by either yourself or your audience ?

    • @MattMcGurk
      @MattMcGurk  4 месяца назад +1

      No, as long as the cards are cut flipped and shuffled into the other half you can mix them however, even a casino wash. Just make sure that no cards flip over accidentally as you do it.

    I wonder if it would be too much of an overkill, to include the actual number of red cards along with the prediction of being even numbered red cards? Just a thought

      Absolutely. When they cut a pile and turn them face up, just have them riffle shuffle them into the opposite pile.

      Hey, no this is not the Gilbert’s principle. I traced the trick as far back as I know. The trick started with Simon Aronson, but many magicians have developed the idea since.

    It’s good but it’s hardly the best card trick in the world. I mean, I do a signed card to wallet with the card being under my driver’s license sleeve, in a buttoned pocket, with an examinable wallet. That trick kills and has beat both Penn and Teller and Uri Geller.

    it's quite simply Aldo Colombini's Serial Prediction in which he replaced paper predictions with a smartphone!!! I've been doing this trick for 30 years and it's nothing new. Just a copier who claims to have invented something!!! When you borrow someone else's creation, the minimum amount of honesty is to cite their name....

      Hey Max. I did give credit to the original creator of the trick in the latter part of the video. In this case Simon Aronson, not Aldo. I’m unfamiliar with the Aldo Colombini routine (though I love his work) but if it predates Aronson then I’ll amend the credit. Can you let me know where I can find it please?
