More mental magic! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/iriRrKafqLfRpGg.html

Since you share so much, I'll share the only card trick I know. It may sound dumb, but it works. And it's so simple. (probably one of the oldest tricks in the book) As you shuffle and cut the deck a lot look at (secretly peek at) and remember the bottom card and keep it down there as you continue to shuffle a few more times. This is my version. The known card is on the bottom so ask the person to try and cut the deck exactly ten (arbitrary number) from the bottom. This gets them involved from the start. Then count how many they got from the bottom half stacking each card on top. Make a big deal of how close they were. Then get them to flip the top card over (that was the bottom card from the beginning) and remember it and put it back in the deck and shuffle as much as they want. (this is usually where they start to look in wonder because they have always held the deck). Then recall the number of cards they cut and flip the cards face up in piles of that number. At this point you'll know where their card is. All this could be done by them (and the amazement factor goes way up). Then tell them the next card you flip over is theirs and flip the card that was on the bottom from the very start. They're always amazed at how it was done. The number of cards cut from the bottom and the piles of that same number are all distractions. I doubt anyone will ever read this, but for those who do get a free trick that is really cool!

This is one of the best card tricks on KZfaq congrats on ten thousand subscribers!

This channel is becoming my favourite , congrats on hitting 10k subs

That's such a great effect man!!! All ur tricks are so creative and amazing!!! Congrats on 10k!!! U deserve it!!!!

Congrats on 10k! I thoroughly enjoy this effect. Taking old ideas/principles and applying them in different ways has always been fun for me. May try this one out!

I love these self working effects! Magic in the spectators hands is always so good

Congrats Mr Barnes! 10k is so well deserved, your content is so good. You have helped me with magic so much along with craig as well, your advice on sunday sessions has inspired me and given me confidence to begin my performing journey. Keep smashing it man.

Congrats on 10k! I love this type of magic. I’ve done magic for years and love mentalist the most. My daughter is 8 and loves learning tricks and this is perfect for her bc no slight of hand involved. She’s a mentalist in the making! Thanks for sharing.

"stop eating lunch before you do that!" I just can't get enough of those videos. So entertaining and of cause a great trick. grats on 10k!

Love it man!! This is such good content. Not just amazing tricks but I love your philosophy!!

Awesome idea Lloyd! Got my brain flowing with other ideas already👀 Congrats on 10k, well deserved!😁🤘🏻

What a great version of the classic. Good job!! Congratulation for 10k , you deserve that!

I love this! But here’s what I would do to eliminate any possibility of them mentally selecting one of the cards that shouldn’t be chosen: I would give them 10 cards the same process you use. Say, “is that enough?” And as I do that I spread out 10 cards myself. “Great. Here’s what I want you to do with YOUR cards.” You pick up the 10 you have a break at, throw the rest of the cards, and spread the 10 in front of you fully and have them mentally select one in theirs. Basically demonstrating exactly what you want them to do. After they do so, casually give your cards to them to be put on top of their pile. Then continue on with the rest of the routine.

congrats on 10k! you deserve this so much man! keep going with those awesome tutorials

Congrats on 10K Lloyd, you totally deserve this and more!!!!

First of all holy crap man congratulations on 10k that is just amazing. Glad to have been here since the first 250 subs. You're channel is my favorite. All your content is so new and exciting and funny and magical all in one. Now on to the trick. Wow. Unbelievably deceptive and fooling. I'm so excited to be able to learn this and add it to my set of killer tricks. Thanks lloyd and here is to the next 10k!!!!!

Congratulations on the 10k deserving doesn't cover it in my opinion, the content you're putting out is pure gold. From the tutorials to the totally unmissable Sunday sessions. Keep up the out of this world work man and you'll be hitting the next subs milestone in no time.

My no. was 9.This effect is so freaking crazy!Lloyd,I think you are the best magician!

been watching magic on yt for about 3 years now.. you're definitely the best right now, by far. it's not even close. thanks for these dope ass videos bruh, they're a breath of fresh air. genuinely brotha.

Lloyd that was awesome I was behind just like your beautiful wife your helper . You really have a great outlook on magic and presentation!

That reaction "that's really good' is is such an underwelming reaction. For me, didnt see the trick, it is a woooow. This is the best trick i have ever seen.

Hi Lloyd, congratulations on 10,000, I'm happy to be 10,207 or wherever I landed. Your definition of magic is 100% on the money and the reason I perform. Thank you for the extended breakdown. I'm a huge fan of tricks based on older concepts (harder for spectators to look up online as you perform). My only issue is that I frequently perform for people who will not pick within the bottom 10 (first 10 facing them). At least 50% of the time they will go much deeper and I don't want to artificially constrain them. This doesn't matter if you know that their card is closer to the top of the pack; the method they use to count will put their card in position 10-19 (if their card is in the first 9 cards, have them turn the packet face up and count that way, their card moves to the bottom half). The problem is knowing which half their card is in and, therefore, how to have them count. My only solution is to have them shuffle the 20 cards, set them on the table and then cut to a card. You can then visually see which half and therefore how they should count. The thing is I really love letting them spread and look through the cards, much higher emotional investment in their selection (tell them to find one that calls to them, etc.). Heightens the payoff after using the "manifesting" plot. I'd love your thoughts.

Congratulations Lloyd! Well deserved and millions of more subs to come!🎊🎉🎊

This effect is definitely a show stopper. The method is so well hidden within effect no one would think of the solution. Awesome !!! I could see this killing with a couple for example.

Not thrown a deck of cards for a while in a trick. Forgot how lovely an energy it can bring.

Duddeeee this is sweet asf!! 🔥 lovely work yet again and congrats on 10k subs

Never seen you, but immediately subscribed because I've never seen anyone so happy about 10k subs. Your happiness is contagious!

You inspired me to pick my deck back up. Thanks for the great content.

Congratulations on your 10K subs partner.!!! 😃❤️ Your thinking is absolutely SUPERB yet again.!!! 😃💪👏👏👏

So happy to see you hit 10K, you deserve it with all your teachings and hard work. Hope you keep this grind of magic/mentalism going, because over 10K of us are along for the ride. P.S. not to ruin the mood but I sent an email from your youtube email in the about section of your channel about Odyssey. Hopefully I gave you all the info you needed, if not let me know and have a fantastic day of chicken wings to celebrate 10K subs woohoo!!!

You inspired me to get back into magic again after putting it down this past year…thank you so much sir

I've just discovered your chanel and you are a beast!! Creative guy and interesting tricks, good vibes!!

Great tutorial 👍Congratulations on hitting 10k keep up the good work

Congratulations on 10K. Your awesome. 👍😊👍😊

A simple card force turned into a great mentalist trick, nice one Lloyd! Congrats on reaching 10k subscribers as well

Congrats on hitting 10K!!

Heyyyyy Lloyd congrats to your first 10k. I remember that feeling from years ago when I reached 10k. Very nice routine. When you said loves me, loves me not, a very wellknown spanish magician 🎩 appeared in my thought 💭 so nifty and clever . ❤️ it

Let’s go Lloyd! Congrats 10k man!

Great job for 10k !!! You're an awesome magician, you completely deserve it ! Amazing trick btw !

Good stuff! And that stairway with the brick wall is very nice!

Glad this popped up on KZfaq today. Awesome trick!

Awesome and well deserved Lloyd, from one of your many, many followers. :)

For me, magic exist too ! I got the same thoughts about magic as you... I don't think that magic is dead... Magic is an experience. A moment when everything is possible. If you see a miracle that you thought it was impossible one second ago, then everything is possible... Us, magicians, have to create that moment, to see the magic... That's why I love magic, it allows people to dream again, to get them out of their maybe sad day, for just a moment... And that is the true magic !

Watching your excitement of 10k subscribers while noticing it's a year old and subscribers are now just shy of 51k...way to go Mr. Barnes 👍

Thanks, Lloyd - that was great! And congrats on making 10K subs!

Love the tricks and the content!! Congratz for the 10K, Now for 100K!!

Very well thought out effect love it

Wow just 6 months ago and you've gone from 10k to just about 43k! Let's go bud! I love your content!

Very good explanation my friend and thank you for sharing how to make this. I made one along with the video and am excited to show this trick. I subscribed to your channel as well 👍🏼

Hi Lloyd, I am not a fan of self working magic, however I was intrigued by this one. As you know I am probably your oldest follower, and English, so thanks yet again for this one. Please keep them coming. TOB (The Old Boy).

“What the hell are you doing to me?” We’re all subbing man! Congrats on 10K!

Watching this a year later...with 77,200 subscribers. Hope the number keeps going up, brother. Great stuff. Also...I love how my guy said "Without any further ado...oh! If you haven't subscribed..." It was great. "Without any further ado...just a little quick ado here...okay, without any _more_ further ado..." Perfect. 😂

Honestly I just fricking knew that you were gold...your content is awesome!!!!@!

Hi Lloyd, love your creative passion and unique way of presenting truly entertaining videos of magic. I look forward to more of your inspirational ideas. I hope you don't mind me leaving another self-working, addon idea to your already superb, brilliant effect... Maybe a 'Faith vs Belief' narrative for a potential, requested repeat of this effect - it uses a gem of a principle you might be familiar with already - thought I'd share for fun. Perform the trick as usual up to the point where you have the specs card in the ninth position and you are about to do the 'I believe' elimination process. Instead of going into the elimination/reveal bit - first, casually shuffle two cards from top of facedown pack to the bottom. Get the the spec to deal nine cards facedown one at a time off the top of the facedown pack on to the table (Note, the casual 2- card shuffle tweak now puts the selection 3rd from the top of this new, nine-card, packet on the table). Now get the spec to pick up the facedown packet of nine cards, and spell the name of their card - starting with the value - one card per letter, facedown, onto the table. Drop the remainder of the nine-card packet, facedown on top of these few cards spelling the value. The spec picks up this facedown nine-card packet again, and deals two cards the same way, spelling each letter for 'OF' onto the table. Drop remaining cards on top. Pick up 9-card pile again and spell the suit of named card the same way. Drop remaining facedown packet of the nine. Lastly, pick up facedown packet of nine for the reveal. Simply have spec spell one card for each letter of the word 'FAITH' - the card arrived at will be their card! Not sure to this day, who actually created this nine card principle - seen it as a lie detector trick years ago anyway, hope this might be of some use or inspiration - all the best to you and your channel Lloyd!

10k subscribers this is awesome....!!! And the video was so amazing...!

Congrats on 10k subs Lloyd-- With your amazing content this channel will continue to grow!! I will cheers to that with a beer later today. I actually had a bottle of champagne in my fridge that I was waiting to pop once Craig Petty hit 10k-- so I popped that last month . So happy for you-- and your content is pure gold-- love all your videos. Thanks for all you do!!!

That was incredible!!! Those darn thrift store books. Love them.

U just thought me how to upgrade magic tricks.. thanks ❤️🔥

Thank you. It's very interesting idea

GRATS on 10K!!

Congrats in the subs!!

congrats on the 10k well deserved your a star . Lloyd can you please tell me the make of your craft cutting set please

Your instructions work placing the target card at position 9 where it should be. You should never have mentioned position 11 because that is wrong. I do like your stuff!

10k!!! This is C-A-N-D-Y!! Love the content!! Gary in dreamland floating on a cloud island. Have a nice dream!!!🙂☁️☁️☁️⛅💫♥️

_Yeh bro, like I said, you NEED to go on Fool Us!_

Brilliant!

You two are so sweet, i enjoy every Video, thx a lot.

I'm so incredibly jealous of your dynamic you two have, its so wholesome, so lucky to have found each other (assuming youre married). also the trick was cool too, im gunna do it for sure. SO glad mr petty sent me here.

Really like this. Just goes to show: if you want to fool someone, resurrect a forgotten principle from an old magic book! Do you have any thoughts on how to perform this one-to-one with no audience? The bit where they indicate the number the card is at obviously won't work so would need re-framing.

I have been waiting for a channel like this! Thank you! Where do I know you from? What site? I buy magic from so many!

EXCELENTE JUEGO!! UN ABRAZO ENORME DESDE ARGENTINA

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!

Nice one, congrats

Congratulations bud im a new subscriber from Kingston Ontario Canada 🇨🇦

congratulations great job....

Wow absolutely blown my mind, how do I learn this superb trick

Another great tutorial! One question (and maybe you mentioned this and I missed it?) What do you do if they think of one of the cards between 1 and 11 from the top?

amazing trick brooo...you are so amazing...best regard from Indonesian Magician 👍🇮🇩

Hey what's up, Lloyd? I've subscribed yesterday because I really appreciate your gimmick effects, and you teach how to DIY. Even you send it to subscribers. Unfortunatelly, I think is quite tricky to make the gimmicks, they demand somewhat precision and hand ability. I would pay for your gimmicks at a cost+ price if you agree to help me and other subscribers whom face same issues. Please let me know, and congrats for the 10K, it is the consequence of your great job here.

Thanks!

Thx Spanky😉

This is an amazing trick

Great thinking for this principle. But the card isn't in the 11th position down before the "manifesting" starts. It is the card that remains but it's not in the 11th position down.

Where do you live? I really think it’s great that you include your Wife in your posts and I love the interaction between you. She is So cute and I love her reactions to your tricks. (I’m a retired Counselor and just instinctively see it in people without even thinking about it.) Great couple. I found you after you hit 60K followers.

Great work Lloyd, can u tell me when the new lottery prediction App will be released

This was actually the first trick I learned when I was like 7. But mine was with 21 cards and it was the 11th position as well lol

I definitely subscribed to this channel after seeing one trick that he invented. It is like a spin off of "Fool Us Penn and Teller." Their idea is like: "Fool My Wife." He show her a card trick and she tries to figure the trick. Then he teach how the trick is done. Stumbled on the channel after surfing KZfaq. He creates pretty good card tricks.

Hey there Lloyd. First, many thanks for your effort, your magic and your time. I was checking possible outcomes in this trick. What happen if they choose card in position 20? it doesnt work with this position. Or even 9 for example. 9 is almost the middle of the deck, and doesn't work with 1 digit. Do you have a safe exit for this 2 outcomes? Thanks
