The magician displays about 15 indifferent cards and asks a spectator to think of one of the "possible cards" in the packet. When the spectator names the card he has thought of, we see that it is impossible... because when the cards are displayed again, they are all the same, and different from the spectator's card, which he could not have chosen! He then takes a deck out of its case, and mysteriously produces the card that had been freely thought of! The cards specially printed to perform this trick are provided in Dominique Duvivier's "Let's Have a Dream" trick, which you can get in our Mayette magic store: https://mayette.com/en/card-towers/1111-let-s-have-a-dream  

A "Triumph" on vitamins! A spectator chooses a card, the deck is shuffled with half the cards face up, and half face down. The magician first guesses the name of the card. Then, in a second step, he declares that he is going to put the deck back in its original order; indeed, when he spreads it out, all the cards are now face down... except for one mistake: the card chosen by the spectator is the only face up card! The climax is quite spectacular: when the deck is ribbon spread face up, it is really back in its original order... since the cards are now ordered from Ace to King and by suit! And the icing on the cake, the chosen card is in the right place!  

An interesting way to use the "Electric Deck" not just as a gag, as we usually do, but as a trick.  

A card freely chosen among eight cards turns out to be the only foreign card in the packet, since it is clearly the only card with a different back!  

A very strong impromptu trick with everyday objects. A spectator draws a simple geometric shape on a sugar cube with a pencil. The sugar is placed into a glass of water, the spectator's hand is placed over the opening of the glass. As the sugar dissolves in the water, the "emanation" of the inscription will rise into the spectator’s palm, and he will be amazed when he discovers that the inscription is now reproduced on his own hand!  

An impromptu card trick, quick, easy to do, but still baffling! Several variations of this classic trick are explained on this platform. This version is Larry Jennings’ one.

A card is chosen, signed, and lost in the center of the deck. The deck, whose faces and backs of the cards have been clearly shown, is put back into its case, which represents a washing machine! And indeed, when the deck is taken out of its case, the cards are now blank on both sides, except for the chosen and signed card, which is still printed!  

I have been looking for a long time for a method to achieve this atypical effect. A card is freely chosen, put back into the deck. The deck is put on the strings of the racket. The whole thing is covered with a transparent cover. We "sift"...and the cards seem to all, progressively go through the string mesh... all except one, and it is the right one! A trick highly regarded by "The Jerx", the king of underground magic.  

Card Technique: You ask the spectator to choose a card, but you force him, without him realizing it, to choose the one you want. This method is simple, but extremely effective; it requires no sleight of hand.  

Gaetan Bloom: " This is also one of my favorite babies, my version of the card caught in the knot of a rope... I started with a complicated mechanism, to eliminate everything and come up with a rather Machiavellian simplicity... and watch out, no forced card, signed, no magnets, and the rope can be given out as a souvenir at the end... a true delight!"  

This trick is a variation of "Chicago Opener" by Frank Garcia. Dominique Duvivier described it in his first book in 1974, and elsewhere on this platform. In this version, the first card is freely thought by the spectator. Success guaranteed!  

A great classic of our Art. The tricks that take place in the spectator's hand always have a strong impact. The spectator closes his hand into a fist. The magician does the same; then he passes the flame of a lighter under his closed hand... and shows that a burn mark has appeared in his palm. By a magical sympathy effect, when the spectator opens his hand, what a surprise when he will see that inside it, there is the same mark! An impromptu trick that is sure to impress your audience.  

Dominique Duvivier invites you to a journey back in time. He explains that he has developed a prototype with small objects (i.e. his deck of cards), and that it is up to others to develop the concept to human size! A card is chosen, and lost in "extreme" laboratory conditions. Despite this, it will "go back in time" twice... This quasi-mystical experience will end with an astounding climax.  

Dominique Duvivier's presentation of the famous Puzzle trick, in which a piece is added several times, and the puzzle is always the same size each time. In this version, the puzzle is placed in a template which proves that the dimensions have remained the same. And everything is handed out for examination at the end!  

Jerome Sauloup offers you this mentalism routine using simple business cards and ending with a mind reading. A very effective way to give your business card to your audience.  

The divine "Professor" Dai Vernon explained this trick, quite a while ago, using hats... I have modified it a little to make it easier to set it up, while keeping the essence of the trick. It's so clever! The cards chosen are never manipulated by you. The trick is beautiful. Bravo Professor!
