There is a card magic trick that I would love to learn?

Karen F asked:
The magician will ask people for a random suit and a random number. He or she will pull out a deck of cards, and spread them out all face up, there is one card face down, and that face down card is the chosen card. There are many variations to this trick but that is the bare bones of it.

As far as I know, that random number and suit have to be visually choosen by the audience…. you can then give it to the audience as a misdirection, while you turn the last card over, and turn the entire deck over. When you put that card in, the audience thinks you’re putting the card in the same orientation as the rest, while the entire deck is actually turned over.
then secretly turn over the deck, again use some misdirection, then spread the cards, keeping the the last card together with the next card after it to ensure no one see that the last card has been turned over.
If that isn’t choosen from the said deck, then I think you may have to use a different deck. In your second deck, you already put one special card face down.
In your first deck, you do a card forcing. You force your audience to choose the card that is same as your special card that you already turn over.
Card forcing is widely use in magic. You can rifle the card and stop at where your audience say stop, but actually you stop at the forced card. Another way is to rifle down quickly, but pause awhile at the forced card, so the only card your audience can see out of your quick rifling will be the force card. Another method is quickly run through the deck of cards, and as your audience finger is about to touch it, push out the force card to their finger.
i think there are other forcing method as well..
that’s all i can think of, that if you wants to take the card out with the choosen card already turn, you need to force that card in the choosing process
This is available from or many other dealers and it is known as the Invisible Deck. This is not the place to discuss the secret, but if you order the deck you will see at once all the possibilities. Good Luck
