Elevator Card Trick

Effect:

The top card of the deck is turned face up to the audience.

The card is once again turned face down and removed from the deck.

The magician now places this card into the middle of the deck and then squares the deck

The magician clicks his fingers and the card returns immediately to the top of the deck.

Preparation:

You will need a deck of cards .


Method:

This trick uses the principle of the double lift

When showing the top card actually perform a double lift and show the card that was really second from the top of the pack.

Then remove the actual top card and place it into the middle of the deck.

The already shown card is still on the top of the deck and can be revealed in any way that the magician wishes.

Make sure that the double lift is clean and bend the cards slightly to ensure that they stay together as one.

Best Card Trick In The World...Revealed!

Herein I reveal the secret of the "Best Card Trick In The World," and demonstrate how you can easily do it yourself.

Card warp

This is a cool illusion where the cards appear to warp through the pack

Effect :
A red 5 and a red 6 are shown to a spectator and given to the spectator to place anywhere in a pack of cards.

The magician then takes the pack from the spectator and clasps his hands round the pack with his arms outstretched. He appears to be concentrating very hard, with his attention focused on the cards.

He then removes his hand and shows the pack to the spectator. On turning over the top two cards of the pack, they are the red 5 and 6 .

This trick is extremely convincing and requires good presentation skills

Secret :
Give a 5 of diamonds and a 6 of hearts to the spectator to place in the pack ( do not draw attention to the suits, only that they are a red 5 and 6. )

To prepare for this trick, make sure that the pack has already got the 5 of hearts and the 6 of diamonds on top, face down before handing it to the spectator. The spectator should not realise that the cards have changed as they are the same colour as the original ones.

Psychic Cards Good Card Trick

The Magic Effect:

This magic trick with cards is set up as follows. 12 cards are placed face up on the table ( using any red and black cards from the deck ) in the same pattern you see in the diagram below here. You, the magician, tell someone to secretly pick any BLACK card. After telling them to make several secret random moves, you are able to tell them which card they have moved to.

The Magic Secret:

Tell your audience member to pick any black card. Tell them to next move UP or DOWN to the nearest RED card. Next, tell them to move LEFT or RIGHT to the nearest BLACK card. Next, tell them to move DIAGONALLY To the Nearest RED card. Finally, tell them to move UP or DOWN to the nearest BLACK card. If you follow these directions carefully, your audience member will always end up on the MIDDLE CARD ON THE BOTTOM ROW.
