It's nice to be back :)

Dont say "I'm going to put one card in a specific location" when changing kings.. Better to say "I'm just going to find your card " and switch kings. They will be thinking how can you be looking for my card....you don't even know what it is .....then b;ow thier minds...... Incredible easy trick :) ............Thank you

One thing I've done with this trick is to have the deck in my hands and be casually cutting it while asking them to pick a suit. That way you don't have to explain what you're doing when you pick the deck up and go hunting for the king. Just keep handling the deck casually, find the king, and then set it back on the table. I also don't tell them to double it to make it random, because that's not random… I tell them double digit numbers are harder to guess and I want to make it more complicated. :)

This trick is KILLER!!! I've done it 3x without fail!! My kids are flipping out!! Thank you so much for the best trick ever.....that resets so fast!!

I ask 2 people to choose a random card but must be of the same suit . The result of finding both cards is still mind blowing.

Wow! Such a simple trick to set up but so effective! My family were very impressed 🎉Thank you 😊

Thanks for explaining. I have no background in magic, but I love analyzing things and I see why this works now. It's all based on the way you assembled the deck. So when you "index" it (I dont know the right word) and put the king on the bottom, you know counting up from the bottom that every 4th card will be that suit in descending order (K, Q, J, 10, etc). So then having them "double, then double again" may seem random, but what that is doing is ensuring every 4th card you flip over is the suit they selected at the start. (2 x 2 = 4, which is how many suits there are). Since it's set up, then when they pick a number, you just down down the deck that many (times 4 for 4 suits) until you get to their card. Brilliant trick. Can't wait to try it with my kids.

WOW!!! This is so amazing. And a quick reset. I watched this and selected a card deliberalty before your selected card and I saw it come out. Thanks.

What would be amazing is to have 4 identical decks . Each deck is ready to go , so what ever suit they choose you pull out the deck you want . Back left jeans pocket will be club , back right pocket spades , side right pocket hearts , side left pocket diamond . 😉

Black Magic CRAZY. Even after doing magic for 3 years I'm still blown away at this trixk.GOOD JOB!

Did it for the Wife ... twice ! Worked like a Charm ! Thanks for this AMAZING ACAAN !!

Wow, I have been doing magic, amateur level only, for 25 years and never have I seen something so simple and so effective. Subbed!

I’ve found it better to ask the person to double the value of their card and double it again. I tell them I’m going to pass cards from the top of the deck to my other hand (keeping the same order) and then ask them to stop me at one number before their number. And then you do the theatrical reveal. Blows them away far better. No numbers are revealed at all, no risk of them seeing a pattern of cards as you would have dealt them.

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 THANK YOU so much, a truly magnificent trick! I'll have fun doing it to anyone tomorrow! HAPPY to have found your tutorial, even if... completely random! 😄😄😄😄😄

This is such a brilliant effect! Thank you for sharing this!

Awesome tutorial, Steve sure missed your posts, so glad to see you.

Hey Steve. Cool piece and I can't wait to learn it, thank you. I'm gonna learn two card tricks a day.

Wow! A very clean version of the Berglas Effect... And the instant repeat is a killer effect ❤

That was fantastic. Will definitely be using this.. thank you. 👍♠️❤️

A brilliant trick Steve. Welcome back 🎉🎉🤜🤛👍🤜🤛👋👋

This is a really great trick! Best part is, you can actually repeat it and STILL show that it is a completely shuffled deck! Thanks for sharing!

Nice! I’ll definitely use this. Thank you! 👍

Absolutely love it, gonna keep a deck set up like this

Hello Steve, Thank you for posting this brilliant routine. I shall have to figure out a way to derive the order of your deck from new card order, perhaps in a similar way that a Mnemonica stack for example can be derived from a new deck. This is going to be my go-to trick from now on. Cheers Mate. 🌠

Welcome back Steve. I hope that you are doing well. Hey, Steve, THIS IS AMAZING. I have been wondering how this ACAAN trick was done for a very lo g time. There are so many ACAAN routines, but this is TOPS. There may even be other routines like this trick, that I hope to learn another day. Hope to see you very soon with another AWESOME card trick. Thank you, Steve. You are FANTASTIC. I cant wait to start practicing this and performing it. Stay safe, healthy, and, well. GOD BLESS YOU, Glen

Fantastic card trick! That's just amazing. Can't wait to blow some minds out there 🤯

Thank you for this effect! Love it!

Great trick Steve! Awesome!

Awesome trick. It’s close to the Si Stebbin’s stack. If you follow the same routine and count up from the bottom it leaves the chosen card on the face… Anyway, awesome. Thanks for sharing

Thanks for reminding me about this trick. I had learned it a very long time ago and forgot about it.

Mr Steven thanks a million to put out the tutorial of this trick. few years ago I saw Berglas effect (ACAAN) bought his book cost me with tax around 120 dollars. So crazy to learn.You in my opinion simplified put in best understanding way not only this all the other card tutorials. Wish you all the best.

in my 40 years of magic i have never seen this method. Very cool. will try it out. Seems like it will play very clean.

When i did this, I asked my wife to think of a number between 1 and 10, then followed the routine. It worked and she was impressed. Like another one of your viewers, I'm a support worker and will be using what I've learned to keep the people i support entertained 😊

Such a clever trick . Thanks mate 👍👍🖖

I am honestly not sure if taught on other KZfaq channels but this a great routine and well taught big thank you for taken time to upload now time to fry some willing spectators/magicians

Really great one. Thanks Steve.

"CLASS". Tk's for sharing 👍

Really happy that u r back Steve .. this one is a. Banger❤. This looks like iceberg single card accan

Thank you so much for this tutorial. I will be adding this into my arsenal immediately. It's been a long time since I've been this impressed by a method. Outstanding Showmanship my friend

Thank you for sharing. This is amazing

Amazing! Purely self-working!

This was cool!! Good stuff!! Thanx bro! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Another great Si Stebbins trick. I do this as a memorization trick, After you get the selected King to the bottom, I spread the cards and say I will memorize the deck. Gather up the deck and ask spec for a value card from the selected suit. Multiply the value times 4. Deal out that number of cards and turn the last card dealt over and show spec card selected. This removes the possibility that the cards are in an order where that number agrees to the card selected.

I think a more “mystical” way to relocate the King would be to have them think of the suit, have them tell you. Then say to pick, in their mind, the car from that suit. Then explain you’re going to read their mind, and relocate that card to the bottom. Then when they get their random number. You can explain that by some magic (use a snap for effect or a tap of the deck) you’ve relocated their card to their number spot in the deck.

WOW...fantastic trick! THANK YOU :)

Great trick, well explained! I have realized, and as noted in previous comments, that this is a clever version of the Sy Stebbins stack. I set up the deck as follows; set the four card piles into CHaSeD order (10C, 7H, 4S and AD face up on face up piles) build the deck starting in succession with the 10C. The KD is now on the face of the deck. If fairly low numbered cards are "thought of" then, after asking for the suit, if Clubs is chosen, add 13 to the twice-doubled number the spec gave. If Hearts is chosen, add 26 to the twice-doubled number the spec gave. If Spades is chosen, add 39 to the twice-doubled number the spec gave. This avoids having to sort through the deck. This works best for card values if the thought-of cards are any value for Clubs and Hearts, or Ace, two or three for Spades, as the card would be found with only one count-through of the deck. Otherwise, the counting becomes too laboreous for the audience. Alternatively, I use the two Jokers and an advertisement card before the Kings of C, H and S and make an excuse to pull these from the deck, leaving the required K of the chosen suit on the bottom after removing the three extra cards. To start, I pull the deck from the box with the deck cut to leave the KH on the bottom. According to my sources, the most selected suit seems to be Hearts, especially with women (no misogyny intended). Men most often choose the black suits. Whew!

Fantastic! Good to see you.

Thank you for sharing! Nice trick for someone completely clueless like me. But I would avoid doubling it twice, as that is not a random number and can easily be recalculated. In my opinion, the trick also works well if you ask for the card value directly and then find the right card...

Awesome trick. Thanks so much!

That’s a great trick! Thank you!

Cool! Thanks for sharing!

I know a lot of self working tricks but this one is amazing... I always thought the best tricks are the ones you don't 100% understand yourself 😀😀😉😉

Ok I got a couple ideas. For the suit you can have them roll a dice which has C,H,S,D. That way when they roll it's a random selection, but you'll see what suit they land on. Then... you can say "now before we do anything else I'm just gonna take out the jokers". Literally keep some jokers next to some kings, so that you can cut a Joker to the bottom, then keep looking for the next joker (secretly cutting the king to the bottom.)

The best card at number. Bless

The best trick ever... Thanks for sharing. After he or she mentions the suit you say these cards are well suffled and say let me take the jokers out and do a false cut or it is fine the way you do it.💯👍🙏🌟🌟🌟❤🌟🌟🌟

Steve- thanks for this great one . Im an old wizard of stage magic and in old age moving onto card magic. Ive devised a formula that exceeds all imagination, and can probably go even further . The formula is this : i use the " chased " setup method in addition to your 10, 7 ,4 ,ace . So clubs , hearts, spades , diamonds. ( C-H-aS-eD) ... Now the real math comes in --- any card on bottom- not necessarily the king ... By following the bottom 4 cards as key cards , heres the formula: Customers thought of card = bottom card minus the thought of card , multiplied by 4 , minus the number of cards on top of the key card . In other words, if the thought card is a 10s and the key card is a 5s , then 10 - 5 = 5 ... 5 x 4 = 20 ... and 20 minus one = 19 . Minus one because im assuming that the key (3s) is 2nd from bottom. Its a little hard to explain and i want to make a video to collaborate this out to the magic world. 🎩

Great instruction & clarity supreme - Cheers!

Woah this is really cool, didn't know about this principle! Awesome

Man you just reminded me of an old trick from when i was kid …that i cant quite recall,lol, but was a much simpler version counting the cards out , after picking, cutting …etc etc…my age has made it all but disappear from memory (😂) but it also involved mathematical certainty somehow ….damn math is koo!😮

Thats a great trick and thanks for sharing 🙂👍

Very cool indeed! Couple of pointers: 1. You don’t have to change the cards! You know the position of every card as it is. You just add 13, 26 or 39 if the suit is the first one (diamonds in your example), the second (spades) or the third one (hearts). So without changing the deck, 5 of diamonds would be in position number 33 (5x2x2+13). If the position number is bigger than 52 you just circle the deck! 10 of spades would be in position 66 (10x2x2+26), meaning 66-52=14th from the top. Knowing all card positions opens up limitless possibilities for revealing. 2. I think is better to let the spectator count in order to find their own card without even telling you the multiplication result. This would leave them even more speechless!

Holy cow that is AMAZING! Can I ask you where you learned about this gem?

Something powerful that you didn’t mention is that the spectator can actually cut the deck as many times as they want before you do the trick. A cut and complete retains the order of the cards so it doesn’t matter how many times they cut it

Excellent effect. I know the trick. I will not reveal the secret. Thanks for sharing. I must say I was pleasantly surprised. 👍

This Card trick is so cool and easy to understand so I had to download instead 👍👍👍

BTW, I think I'm done adding to my card magic arsenal after this. I'm gonna do this with 4 decks as a multiple out. This is Truly the Crown Jewel of my card magic repertoire. l generally don't think I will ever come across ANYTHING that could top this. Thank you again.

Great ACAAN! With another setup you can also get it working by setting up cards so that you decide to count from either top or bottom and if you count on the card or the next one. Though the cards pattern is too obvious and in this variations it looks genuinely random shuffled! Kudos

Pretty good! Well done!

Pretty cool, that's the 100th greatest card trick I've learned!

What a neat trick! Thanks! Just practiced it so cool

Great! Love this!

This is brilliant.

Now that is Brilliant!

Fantastic. SUPER

So glad you’re back. Where have you been?

Mate this trick is so good What I found useful is I put a breather crimp on the kings so I can cut to any king without looking

This effect is almost to good to be true. especially if you have the correct suit on the bottom. If thats the case you never have to touch the deck and that is a true miracle. Thank you for a great trick

Wow superb - kids heads have been blown - great videos Steven

Thank you❤

Hey. Any way you can shuffle into this stack. I’ve been striving to faro into it and the count is off. I’m sure you don’t do this set up when working pro. Would love the tip! Great ACAAN 💯 thank you

Very nice. Keep it up!

What's missing from this explanation is because its a cyclical stack you can cut the deck as any times as you like and the order is preserved when pulling the king to the bottom. I would definitely get the spectator to cut a few times before beginning. You could even get them to cut after they have named the suit, to make sure the pack is random.

Absolutely awesome trick so much so you have a new subscriber

You can use the Magician’s Choice to manipulate the spectator to choose the suit you are set up for, in this case clubs. Maybe by using the four aces from another deck.

That's amazing. Is this a trick you came up with???

This is an absolute amazing version of ACAAN, and I know many..small setup required but deffo worth it as its a killer.. p.s do you know who this is credited too or who version this is , thanks 😊

Wow love it. Took me seconds to master thanks

thanks for this buddy

That's awesome!

I subscribed just for the FREE and genuinely amazing ACAAN

Very nice technique. Thank you. You could also use magician's choice to force the suit you know is on the bottom of the deck. That way you'd never have to touch the cards.

Soooooo great !!

Man you're amazing

🔥😁♣️♥️♠️♦️ love this idea 💡

My favorite card trick is one I learned at age 8 in 1988 in the 80's. I've NEVER seen it done since but it's the EASIEST trick & has an incredible effect on people. Take a deck of cards & look at the bottom card. There's a hundred ways to dress this up so feel free to do up that part for a better effect... That's the card you'll eventually name to the person/people. Place the full deck in your hand. Tilt the deck towards the crowd & with your other hand you're simultaneously pulling the bottom card down & pulling the top card down to cover up your deception. So you're sitting there with the top card pulled down a bit & the bottom card pulled down a bit. They're in their same spot just moved down some. "I'm going to start going through this deck & you tell me when to stop. Tell me to stop ANYWHERE." You'll start pulling more cards down & eventually they say stop at a card. When you pull the top of the deck out, the bottom card flies to the break in the deck & NOBODY else can see this happen cause your hands are covering the top of the deck. Of course it's the bottom card but looks like it's their card your stopped on. ZERO setup & can be done again & again by having someone shuffle the deck & peeking at the bottom card before starting to go through the deck. I HAVE AMAZED PEOPLE WITH THIS SINCE 1988 & IS AN INSTANTANEOUS TRICK TO DO. ZERO people have EVER figured it out & it sounds dumb but trust me it's an incredible effect & looks like they're picking a random card (which they really are doing) but you're 100% able to say what that card will be EVERY SINGLE TIME.

BEAST!!

what if you prepare 4 decks for this trick :)

Perfect

Wow! That's great! Do you have any good false shuffles to teach?

You could even avoid the cut by having four decks in four different pockets (or two decks in two pockets) and just start by saying "I have a deck in my pocket", the proceed to pull out the appropriately set up deck.
