Method<\/h3>\n
The trick’s easy to do. Very much math based.<\/p>\n
\n- Shuffle the deck any way you want. Doesn’t have to be any sort of special deck.<\/li>\n
- Have the spectator pick 3 cards. Don’t let them show you and have them hold onto the three cards. Tell them to memorize the cards well.<\/li>\n
- Deal out a pile of 10 cards on the right (pile 1), 15 cards in the middle (pile 2), 15 cards on the left (pile 3), and then the last nine in a separate pile below.<\/li>\n
- Have the spectator put one card on top of pile 1.<\/li>\n
- Tell them to cut pile 2 and put it on top of pile 1.<\/li>\n
- Have the spectator put one card on top of the smaller pile 2.<\/li>\n
- Have them cut pile 3 anywhere and place on top of pile 2.<\/li>\n
- Put the last card on top of the smaller pile 3.<\/li>\n
- Put the nine card pile on top of pile 3.<\/li>\n
- Put pile 3 on top of pile 2, then put that on top of pile 1.<\/li>\n
- Take the top four cards and put them on the bottom.<\/li>\n
- Tell the spectator to watch the cards carefully and tell you to stop if they see their card.<\/li>\n
- Start flipping the deck into two piles: one face up and one face down, alternating. Start with a face up card.<\/li>\n
- Once you’ve gone through the entire deck, pick up the face down pile and repeat.<\/li>\n
- Repeat until only three cards remain.<\/li>\n
- Turn the three face down cards over.<\/li>\n
- Tada!<\/b>\u00a0it’s their cards!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
