Card technique: The principle of the peek is to secretly know the identity of a card in the deck. This video explains two methods of peeking the bottom card of the deck without your audience knowing it.  

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!  

"Sleeve Aces" routine is done slowly and gently. This routine follows Dominique Duvivier's philosophy of not seeing, not feeling, not assuming, to achieve an even purer effect. Many concepts of misdirection are discussed and explained in detail: Pinky Count, motivation of actions, lead time, contextualization of the effect. Gary Kurtz' and Darwin Ortiz' concepts in the service of a powerful routine!  

Card technique: Dominique Duvivier shares with you a technique he created in 1998 to switch one deck of cards for another.  

Card technique: Another of Dominique Duvivier's methods for twirling a double card in the air, removing any suspicion of cheating. This method is extremely effective!  

The deck is shuffled and examined by the spectator. He secretly determines a number of cards, as well as one card from among the 52. The magician has no information concerning these two choices, and yet he will discover them! Success guaranteed!

Card technique: To give the illusion that the deck is shuffled with an overhand shuffle, but it remains in its starting order. Very convincing!  

Card Technique: This John Cornelius' flourish allows you to turn a card face up nicely by flipping it in the air. It has been adapted by Dominique Duvivier to perform an extremely deceptive double lift (see the "Double Cornelius Duvivier" video).  

Card Technique: First published in the book "Duvivier Magic", published by Kaufman & Greenberg in 1996. Originally a flourish by John Cornelius (which is described in detail in the video "Cornelius Turnover"), it allows you to turn a card face up nicely by throwing it in the air. Dominique Duvivier has adapted this technique to perform a double lift. This way of doing things is extremely deceptive!  

An exercise in style inspired by Frank Garcia to Dominique Duvivier: The four Aces are lost in the deck and found one by one after a whole series of shuffles.  

Card technique: This false shuffle allows the deck to appear to be perfectly shuffled, while the cards remain in the same order at the beginning and at the end. This false shuffle is extremely convincing. Dominique Duvivier gives an application of this false shuffle: it is a "Triumph" where the cards are shuffled face up, face down, and at the end, all the cards magically come back face down except for the previously chosen card which is the only face up card.  

"Do me a favor"... or how to get the spectator to hold the deck in his own hands, while unbeknownst to him, a card is very slightly outjogged from the deck, allowing you to keep control of it when you retrieve the deck. This card will obviously be the one he has chosen, and put back in the center of the deck! A diabolical tip that is really useful, and that will allow you to completely baffle your fellow card magicians!  

Card Technique: This pass is performed under the guise of turning the deck face up and spreading it quickly between your hands, to "show" that the chosen card you just placed in the center of the deck is lost.  

Card Technique: First published in the book "Duvivier Magic", published by Kaufman & Greenberg in 1996. The special thing about this double lift is that you spin the double card in the air, as if it were doing multiple somersaults, thus removing any suspicion of cheating. This is an extremely effective way to do it!  

Card Technique: This technique allows you to count 4 cards when you are really only showing 2.  

1-One of the great classics of false shuffle. Quite simple to perform and very effective. 2-False shuffle by cuts, inspired by a Franck Garcia's shuffle.3-False shuffle by multiple cuts that leaves your deck in the initial order. Very convincing!
