The order will be King, Queen, Jack, Ace (of each suit.) Have a member of the audience cut the small deck in half, and complete the cut (top half of deck goes beneath the bottom half.) This may be done with several audience members. Don’t let them make more than one cut at a time. Now just deal them out, one at a time, onto their four different islands (four piles.)
