The spectator immediately counts the cards: there are only 51 left... and it's his card that's missing, even though it was clearly visible in the deck the moment before! This card ends up among the Jokers that had been set aside at the start of the trick! And everything is handed out for examination. A real miracle! To buy an ordinary deck of cards click here.

A direct Ace Assembly... with a surprising climax! The four aces are displayed in a row on the table. Three indifferent cards are shown, and placed on top of the Leader Ace. Instantly, the Aces are shown to have gathered together with this leader Ace... and when these Aces are displayed on the table, a King is revealed... the other three cards are then turned face up to reveal a four of a kind in Kings: there are no more Aces, nor any other cards! And the icing on the cake is that these four kings are instantly transformed back into four aces! Everything is handed out for examination... a true miracle!

Here's an improved version of the "Perfect Choice - Benjamin Barnes, Duvivier" trick already published on this platform. A card is selected from a deck under laboratory conditions. The spectator immediately counts the cards: there are only 51 left... and it's his card that's missing, even though it was clearly visible in the deck the moment before!

This trick will make you look like a math wizard! The audience gives you a SIX-digit number, which you write down on a notepad. Without hesitation, you then write three more numbers underneath, and ask a member of the audience to use the calculator on their smartphone to multiply these three numbers together... and of course, the result is the six-digit number given by the spectator! Easy to do, extremely intriguing! A guaranteed hit!  

A card is selected from a blue-backed deck under laboratory conditions. A small pile had been set aside beforehand: there are the four blue-backed Queens, and four red-backed face-down cards: these are "Mystery" cards. The spectator freely chooses one of the Queens, which mysteriously turns face-down in the packet. The "Mystery" cards are spread out: there's now a face-up card: it's the Queen previously chosen by the spectator! And now, the incredible climax: the face-down card among the Queens is turned over: it's now the card previously chosen! And when the other three "Mystery" cards are shown, they form a four of a kind with the chosen card! To buy: - some regular cards click here. - an ordinary deck of cards click here.

Three cards are now chosen, and instantly, without any question, the magician reveals the names of these three cards! A real killer. To buy an ordinary deck of cards click here.
