Double lift 2 card as one, show your audience, they will think thats the top card. Turn it face down again, take the top card and place in the middle of the deck (the card they see, lets call it A, is actually the 2nd card.)

Double lift again, the audience will think this is the next card, they wont see the first card they saw, because that first card, A is now the top card, and you double lift to show the card below it. (lets call this card that they now see as B)

Turn it over, take the top card and give your audience to hold it, face down !!!

They think its card B, and card A is lost in the deck, but they are actually already holding card A

Wave your hand and tell them that you;ve switch card A to their hand, and card B is lost in the deck

Tell them to turn over to find the card A

This is a simple trick, that require no special item

If you want to be a magician, there are 2 ways

One is to start with pure slight of hand, as i’ve describe above. Learn card and coin magic, they can be done with sleight of hand

The other path would be to involve special item such as flash paper that burns quickly but wont hurt your hand, thumb tip which are fake thumb that looks like real, and many other magic stuff

..start with 6 on the top, then 6 on the bottom…(I go from left to right, then finish right to left on the bottom…after that, put a card to the side (Anywhere) Then repeat the 1st step, but backwards. Start at the other end and work your way to where you put the first card. after that, put another card to the side. Then finish dealing the same way, front to back, back to front until the cards are gone. And remember to put one to the side ;).

after your done, pick up the cards you had to the side, and have people pick up piles and see if they can beat you :))) Awesome trick if you get it right!!!
