I will instruct you now two easy card tricks. One cooler than the other.
Let's start with the 1st trick.
Applying math, you can determine two cards that someone has chosen.
For the begining make sure all Kings, Tens, Jacks and Queens, have been taken away from the deck of cards. Aces will be Ones (1).
Performance :
Enquire someone from the audience to combine the cards. Select a pile of cards and carry them in your hand, spread out in a fan figure. Ask the person to select a card. Enquire the person to remember it and to place it back in the deck.
Ask the person to doubleduplicate the number from the card he selected, then to sum up 5. Now require him to multiply that amount by 5. Enquire him to memorise this number.
Ask him to check a new card in the deck, and to add its figure to the total number.
He will tell you in this moment the complete amount.
In your brain, subtract 25 from the amount. The two digits you find are the two cards he took.
For Example - they pick out a Seven, then an Eight.
7 doubled = 14 plus 5 = 19. Multiply 5 times = 95.
Eight(second card) added to complete = 103. You take off 25 = 78.
He selected a Seven and an Eight.
This was the start easy card trick. Now here's how to perform the 2nd easy card trick :
First : Select the four aces out of the deck of cards and put them in this way : (from the top face down) ace of hearts, ace of clubs, ace of diamonds and in the end the ace of spades.
Second : Show the bottom ace (of spades) and do the glide, arranging the ace of diamonds on the board.
Third : While you execute this say "the ace of spades" then perform a bottom buckle with a double lift showing the ace of clubs.
Fourth : Saying "the other black ace the ace of clubs" turn the double over and deal down the ace of hearts (top card). The witness believes that the aces on the table are black, but the black aces are in your hand!
