if you're ready to learn five easy card
tricks let's get started
I think this is one of the best card
tricks you can perform you bring out a
deck of cards and then you take some
cards off the top here you ask a
spectator to remember one of the cards
we're gonna call this one number one
this one number two and this one number
three now let's say they pick number two
and which is the five of Hearts at this
point as the magician you will not know
that they pick the five of Hearts in
fact you can have the spectator mix the
deck up ahead of time before you perform
this trick so you truly do not know what
this is you just know they picked number
two or the second card place them all in
and then you count one two now seemingly
lost in the deck you're now going to
perform the magic you're going to take
your finger in charge it up with some
massive amounts of static electricity
and with that it's going to help you
perform a trick here we're gonna go one
two three and the card rises from the
deck
here's how to do the rising card now for
purposes of explanation here we're gonna
use the ace of hearts two of Hearts and
three of hearts which should make it a
little easier to learn the trick and
understand it although in actually
performing the trick you'll just use a
mixed deck these three cards could be
any three cards so let me show you how
this works once again we have the ace
two and three to represent one two and
three they're just underneath and then a
card is on top here's the setup when you
display the cards in a fan what you do
is you pull out the top card and then
pull out the next three cards just like
this and by holding your thumb here you
can actually hold the fan of these three
cards now let me show you from the other
side as you can see we have our ace two
and three representing one two and three
now what spectators don't know is from
this perspective this is your
perspective you have an extra card on
top but when you show this to the
spectators all they see is the top what
they think are the top three cards and
that's when you ask them to to remember
one of the cards we're gonna call this
one one this one - and this one three
then let's say they pick two which would
be the two of hearts from the back
perspective you take and gather the
cards push them down but what spectators
don't know is there's an extra card here
now our spectator in this case chose two
so that's when you count one let's see
this is a different card whatever it is
just happened to be a two of diamonds
but and you place it in the deck take
the second card they think this is their
card the two of Hearts but it is not
it's actually the ace that goes in the
deck but spectators now think that their
card has been lost inside of the deck
what they don't know is that their
selected card the second one is actually
on top of the deck
and that's the setup the spectator
selected card is automatically on top of
the deck and actually you can do this
technique for any find a card trick now
we're ready for the second part the
levitation arise the card
you
here's where you make the cards
seemingly rise out of the deck
take your finger with your right hand
remember your card spectators card is on
top and you count one two three and on
three you extend the pinkie right here
and now to make the card rise you press
down with the pinky and the card goes up
with it and draw out the card need to
show that is it's their card the two of
Hearts so once again it's one two three
pinkies extended push the pinky into the
card and cause the card to rise up and
then grab it and show the two of hearts
and that is the rising card trick
to find a card and create a royal flush
you use any deck of cards to start you
take out a royal flush of any suit of
your choosing I happen to have chose the
diamonds here gather up your royal flush
and turn it over now take a 5 it could
be of any suit place it on top of your
royal flush and place all this at the
bottom of the deck so what you'll have
at the bottom of your deck is a royal
flush in a suit and a face up 5 show you
from the other direction here now you're
ready to begin the trick you have a
spectator select card remember don't go
too far down otherwise they might see
that face-up card in this case we're
going to say they selected the Queen of
Spades have them show the card around
place it on top of the deck and then you
just give it a cut apparently losing
their card at the deck what's happened
is when you cut the cards
that means the 5 and it's 5 cards or on
top of the spectators card just due to
your setup so at this point you just go
through the cards looking for something
and say AHA there's a face up 5 that
always tells me something I can count 5
cards 1 2 3 4 5 and after that the next
card will be your card which it is and
now for phase 2 you can turn over each
card that was in between and show a
complete royal flush
here's how to perform the counting card
trick all you'll need is a deck of
standard cards there is a set up ahead
of time what you do is take out the 1
through 10 of 1 suit
so here I've used the hearts so I have 1
through 10 ace through 10 of the hearts
and they're arranged with the ace in
front and the 10 in the back this goes
on the bottom of the deck so once again
we have ace through 10 and then we have
the rest of the cards whatever order
they happen to be in now a spectator
randomly selects the card and it really
is random so you can offer the deck to
be to have a card selected in this case
we're gonna say that they picked the
Queen of Spades have the deck resting on
the table make sure you haven't changed
the order aces on the bottom ace through
10 you have the spectator take their
card place it on top of the deck and
then you ask them to lose the card by
cutting so they can cut the deck and at
this point this is where you say that
the cards will be under the spectators
control turn the deck face-up and then
you ask the spectator to cut now you
have them cut continually it might take
a while sometimes you have several cuts
but eventually one of your hearts will
appear one of your one ace through ten
of hearts will appear and at this point
you stop and say you've been cutting the
cards mixing it up wouldn't it be
amazing I see the number three and then
you have them count from the top one two
three and it will be their card now this
works for any of the hearts let's say
you happen to see the number seven was
the one that they had cut to then you
would count one two three four five six
seven and again that would be their card
and this is the counting card trick I
think you'll have a lot of fun with this
I like it because the spectator has the
cards in their control and seemingly
they've arranged the deck so it reveals
their hidden card
here's how to do these spell to a card
trick you use an ordinary deck of cards
and for the purposes here we're gonna
say that the ace of spades is on the
bottom of the deck now in practice you
can always use the ace of spades
if you like but you could have the
spectator shuffle the deck and then
whatever card is on the bottom if you
just remember it then you can use that
card but for purposes of explanation
we're gonna say at the bottom cards the
ace of spades and again you're welcome
to in practice when you're performing
the trick always have the ace of spades
on the bottom so what you do is you have
a card selected and in this case we're
gonna say the spectator selected the 10
of clubs
now when the spectator is showing the
card around here's a good time for you
to look through the deck and you can
actually take your ace of spades and put
it on the bottom or you can just
casually glance at the bottom card
whatever it is you want to do now
spectator shows the card you place the
deck on the table ask your spectator to
place the card on top and then give it a
cut or you can give it a cut to place
the card card somewhere near the middle
now comes the spelling part you tell the
spectator that you're not sure where the
card is or what it is but by trying to
read their mind you're going to go
through the deck and see you can get an
impression of their card now what you're
doing here is you're just looking for
your ace of spades and there's the ace
of spades there obviously you're not
telling the spectators that but once you
spot the ace of spades you can look at
the card in front of it which is the 10
of clubs and then you know their card
now remember how is showing you you're
just kind of going through the cards
looking for your ace of spades
once you find it now you know the card
in front of it is the 10 of clubs that's
the spectators card now you begin to
spell T spell in your mind T e n o F C L
you be yes and then
just at this point you just place the
rest of the cards on the front and you
could just say something like gosh I
just didn't seem to get much of an
impression but I have one more thing up
my sleeve ask them to tell you the cards
they're gonna say 10 of clubs and now
you've positioned the cards so they're
10 of clubs is at the point where you
spell 10 of clubs let's spell it t e and
o F C L you be
and it'll be the 10 of clubs works for
any card
that's the spell to a card trick
here's a card trick and the technique
of applications for other tricks you
notice that I've got this big card on me
here
you don't play solitaire in a phone
booth with this baby let me tell you
jokes aside I don't know why I'm wearing
this card on a clip on my shirt it's
just the way I roll
and I have with me here a deck of cards
now we can shuffle the cards and such I
mean just give it a quick shuffle here
and I do want to show you there's all
kinds of cards
so different cards now we're gonna do
something kind of interesting to try and
select the card I'm gonna ask you the
spectator to cut just a few cards from
the top maybe less than ten so let's say
your spectator cuts the cards and I want
you to turn them face-up done now for
the second cut we're gonna cut a little
deeper into the deck so we ask the
spectator again to cut maybe about
halfway down and turn the cards over now
the spectators done all the cutting and
then you tell the spectator to go
through the deck and look for the first
facedown card happens to be this one and
this card happens to be the ten of
Hearts now is there any relevance to a
ten of Hearts well it turns out that I
do have this card on my shirt here and
oh what do you know it just happens to
be the ten of Hearts here's how to do
the trick here's how to perform the
prediction now in this case I'm using a
giant card which i think is kind of fun
you do not need a giant card all you
need to do is get a piece of paper write
your card a playing card on it whatever
you would like because the spectator
does not have a choice of the card
they're selecting in this case I'm using
ten of Hearts I'm using a jumbo card
again just write ten of Hearts or
whatever card you want to use on a piece
of paper have it facedown or fold it up
form the trick all you need to do is
find
your card which happens in this case to
be the ten of Hearts whatever card you
want to use I'll take the ten of cards
hearts take the 10 of hearts place it on
top of the deck and you're ready to
begin the trick you bring out something
a folded piece of paper with the name of
a playing card on it or you can just
have another playing card of a different
color or is I did here the Jumbo card
remember your card ten of Hearts is on
top which matches your card for the end
now you're ready for the trick and what
you're going to do is ask the spectator
to cut a few cards off the top and turn
them face-up which I've done here phase
two
yes the spectator cut a little more
cards in the deck and turn it over again
at this point you tell the spectator
that they have mixed the cards in all
kinds of different directions and you
want them to go through the deck and
find the first facedown card which they
do and this facedown card will be the
card that was originally on top which
matches your prediction well I hope you
