Magic Tricks Revealed: Card Trick Mind Reading

This is a fantastic card trick that is both easy and powerfully impressive. You can easily perform this for any aged audience and it will impress them. It is an up close trick, so you'll need a small audience. The great part about this trick is there are many ways to choose the reveal.

Here's the basic trick, as it appears to your audience. You hold a regular deck of cards, and fan it out, like they would expect. Then you instruct them to pick a card, any card. They choose card, and you tell them to study it carefully, and show it to their friends. After they place it back in the deck, you mysteriously pluck it right out. They will be amazed, and think you have powerful psychic powers.

Here's how to do the trick. When they are trying to remember their chosen card, you create a space for them to place their card in the deck. Simply take a quick peak at the card that you will place on top of theirs. You only need to remember this card, after they put theirs back in the deck, you'll know exactly where it is. You can reveal this trick many different ways.

The most obvious way is to simply pretend 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 simply pull it out. This part alone will be enough to spellbind any audience. But wait, there's more.

You look through the deck, making like you are searching for it in earnest. Once you get to there card, separate and re stack the deck so their card is on top. Then place the deck face down on a table, say some magic words, tap the top, and there card will be on top. Of course, there are more ways to reveal this.

Once you have their card on top, place the deck behind your back, or under the table. Then quickly take their card out, flip it over, and place it back in the deck, so it's facing the opposite direction of all the other cards. Then pretend 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 think of many others. Of course, the more you pretend you have powerful psychic powers, the better. You'll have a stunned audience in no time, wanting to see more tricks. Have fun with this.
