Card Trick 1
magic puppet can be used
Card Trick 1
Thanks so much to Rita for sending
this in!!
Effect:
The magician has three rows of cards. An audience volunteer picks a card in his/her head and tells the
magician what row it's in. The magician does that three times and on the third time tells the volunteer what their
card was. (or have the magic puppet whisper to you what the card was and
then you tell the audience what the puppet said.)
Supplies:
21 cards, all different
Secret:
First lay out the cards, 3 across and 7 down.
Have someone think of a card and tell you what row its in.
Pick up all the rows, row by row, making sure to pick up the row that the card is in
2nd.
EXAMPLE: Let's assume the
volunteer secretly chose PINK-6 and then told us their card was in the
second row. We would pick up the rows and we would make sure the
pink row was picked up second so that it was in the middle of the deck. |

| Then lay out the cards again (the exact same way, 3 across & 7 down).
Put down one card per row.
- Ex: First do this *** (let's pretend the stars are
cards).
- Then this: *** and so
on (7 times).
In our example, we'd put down
BLUE-1, BLUE-2, BLUE-3 then go down to the next row and place BLUE-4,
BLUE-5, BLUE-6 and so on.
Then ask the volunteer where the card is in now.
Pick up the rows again, like before -- still making
sure that you pick up the row that the card is in 2nd.
In our example, the volunteer
would say their card was in the first row. You would make sure that
row was in the middle of the deck |
 |
|
| Lay them out again, the same way.
Then ask the volunteer which row the card is in now.
(You can get dramatic and tell them to think really hard about it...
pretend to be reading their mind)
Then count four cards down in that row.
(It appears more magical if you count to yourself... people won't realize
you're counting four cards down).
The fourth card is their card!!
In our example, the volunteer
would have said their card was in the last row. Four cards down is
PINK-6!
MAGIC!
