card tricks
Kyle A asked:


My brother showed me this card trick where i pick any card and then stick it back on top of the deck. He then hands me the deck and lets me hide the card anywhere i want to. I’m allowed to shuffle too. He then looks at the cards and finds my card…every single time. Does anybody have any idea how he does this?

    They’re are certain trick decks, that hide …say a 9 of hearts….after every other cards. Depending on which way you shuffle the deck, the cards stay in the same order, as far as they’re being a 9 of hearts after every other cards. Also, depending on which way you shuffle, the 9 of hearts will always be the top card if you split the deck, or riffle through it.

    Check out the source link - is that the trick you were talking about? If not you might try searching around on that site, they have lots of magic card tricks revealed.

    The cards are marked ,when he sticks the card on top after you pick it theres a mark (usually in the corner) thats easy to see if you know what to look for . Thats why you can shuffle them,or whatever you like cause the card is marked a certain way ,acually all the cards are marked hes just gotta see the mark on the card you picked out .

  4. lol, kiddo :
    a magician never reveals his trick
    but, ‘am no magician. so, i’ll tell you how he do that
    listen to me carefully

    every card has a picture of something on the back, so the trick is to know the picture
    for example see this :

    look at the picture carefully and you’ll see that there’s a full circle in the upper left corner of the card whereas all the other corner have only a half-broken circle
    THAT IS THE TRICK and though every card has different picture, every card has that trick ; all you have to do is find it

    so, you have to arrange all the card in the exact order before your brother knows about it
    then you show him the card, let him pick one
    while he was doing that you have to twist the card in your hand upside down so that when he put his card along with your other card, it comes back upside down
    then, you let him shuffle and much as he like
    that’s when the magic comes
    you take the card, observe each card carefully and you’ll surely find the upside down card

    ALL THE BEST for your new learned MAGIC

  5. Okay dude…I use to do a trick like that here is how I did it….

    1.Let the person choose a card.
    2.Let them put it back into the deck and shuffle.
    (3)-I worked out the formation on which the deck was based, then shuffled…I payed attention to where they put the card and then worked it out in my mind and then looked at the deck from a 3-D view looking at each card differently in 3-D…
    then I could easily pick the card out of the deck..

    BUT THAT DEPEND’s IF YOU ARE SMART ENOUGH TO BE ABLE TO DO THAT!!!
