Thank you and Merry Christmas to you too.

What box

Did you get it ???

they dont get "mixed" with the cut.

Sorry, that wasn’t perfectly clear. In the example he gave, he had the ace of spades as the card to look for. I’m asking what happens if the person, when they cut the cards, cut the deck between the 4 spades and ace of spades (the key card and the picked card)?

@@ff784 take a another look at the routine - he moves all cards below the key card to the top - they will join back in their original order at the top..

​@@ff784if you are not confident you can ask to cut again to make it "more difficult", and then do the move again

Yeah, I think forget the cut --- still a good trick without it.

Nope. Should work fine since you recut the deck with the key card (first card of their pile) on top when you put a card on the table

Yeah, it took me a minute too, lol. Basically he *doesn't* know its the ace of spades. He only knows where their pile of cards is, the rest works itself out. In other words, what he's saying is to memorize the first card they put down so you will know exactly where their pile of cards is and you can put it on top of the deck. After that, the spectator tells you what position their card was in in the pile, so you just count down to it.

Took me 2 attempts as well. He sees the first card, 4 of spades and then asks him to count what position his card is. The cards never change position in realtion to the 4 of spades after that so later all he has to do is ask how many cards he counted and count to that card, which is the reveal

The director knows how many cards from the top of the packet the card is. The magician finds the packet (using the key card) and puts the packet on top. The magician doesn't yet know at that point what the card or the number is but counting that many cards from the top will bring you to the selected card. That's what makes it confusing is that at the time the magician makes the move, the magician doesn't need to know the answer.

@@Wiltz12couldn’t it change positions tho if they cut in the right position

Just watch it twice and you’ll get it

Spectator say his number and you count from your keacard….to number he say….

The number is where his card is when he turns all the cards over. He's counting the cards and remembering what number position his card is in (the position is random, because even though he first mentally selected a card, he also mixed the cards up, then turned them over one by one while counting down to his card.)

The card he knows would then move to the bottom of the deck and the cards in the chosen pile that follow would still be in order at the top of the deck. Same goes if the cut happened somewhere in the middle of the chosen pile as he would then put the cards that follow back on top of the deck

What if both choosen and known card are at the top . Then we will move the known card at bottom then trick will be failed

The cards in the pile that follow the known card will always be in order, regardless of the cut, because the known card is the first card of that pile. If the cut separates the pile, the card or cards that follow the known card will be at the bottom of the deck, with the rest at the top. He will just rejoin them by placing the bottom card or cards on top when he places the known card on the table. Looks deceiving but it works!

@@geardi263 bro !! Just cut the deck two time . I mean u should cut the deck even number time and i bet it will work😁

I follow it until the about 3:30. Then despite the explanation, it is a mystery.

I think the confusing part about the tutorial part is that the ace is the second card in the pile. When the participant is flipping over the cards to count where their card is in the pile, you keep track of the first card flipped over. This is the topmost card of their pile and called the key card. After they put the deck together again (and cut it), their pile is still in order within the deck. When you look through the deck "trying to find their card", you are actually looking for the key card (the first card in their pile). You will then take the card before it and place it on the table, and put all the rest of the cards before it keycard on the bottom of the deck. This will leave you with a deck in which their pile of cards is on top in the exact order they were in when they counted and found their card. So when they tell you what number/position the card is in, just take cards off the deck until that number is reach.... magic!

It works with any number.

@@MindBlownMagicIllusion The ace is placed at two right, if i choose number four it can't be the right card

The spectator is thinking of the position they put the card in. When you cut to the key card, you are putting their card back to that position. In this video it was 2, but it would work at any position. Just try it and you’ll see.

@@MindBlownMagicIllusion I see, do practice rn. Thanks for the trick

Yeah because your an idiot

u should report it to the police
