The Remarkable Mind Reading Card Trick
This a great self working card trick that only requires a small bit of misdirection. It’s great to do with kids, or adults. I’ve never been caught while doing this trick. It’s easy to learn, and easy to teach, if you so choose. And the great part is that you really embellish this trick with all kinds of wonderful patter if you like that sort of thing.
Here’s the essential trick, as it appears to your audience. You hold a standard deck of cards, and fan it out, like they would think. Then you order them to choose a card, any card. They choose card, and you tell them to study it vigilantly, and display it to their friends. After they position it back in the deck, you strangely pluck it right out. They will be bewildered, and think you have powerful telepathic powers.
Here’s how to do the ruse. While they are busily learning their card, you divide the deck, and create a place for them to situate their card. All you need to do is take a quick peak at the card that you will rest on top of theirs. Just memorize this card, and once they place there’s in the deck, you’ll know exactly what card comes after. There are quite a lot of ways to reveal this trick.
The most evident way is to simply act as if you are reading their mind while looking through the cards. Then when you get to there’s (which is next to the one you peaked at), you just pull it out. This alone will worth the price of admission. But wait, there’s more.
You can hunt through the deck, pretending to look for it. Once you get to there card, divide and re stack the pack so their card is on top. Then place the deck face down on a bench, say some captivating language, tap the top, and there card will be on top. But hang on, that’s not all, there’s one more authoritative reveal.
Once you have their card on top, place the deck behind your back, or under the table. Then rapidly take their card out, flip it over, and place it back in the deck, so it’s facing the contradictory direction of all the other cards. Then make believe that you can’t guess their card, and get them to tell you which one it was. Then simply look through the deck, now with the cards face up, and there’s will be the only card that is face down. This is only a few ways to reveal their card, I’m sure you can consider of many others. The more you can talk up your psychic powers of presumption before this trick, the better. You’ll have a amazed audience in no time, wanting to see more tricks. Have fun with this.
