A Super Easy Card Trick with Killer Patter

Here's a super easy effect you can do with a Spanish deck of cards (but you can honestly do it with any deck you've got lying around the house... even a Pokémon deck or some soccer trading cards).

The fun part about this trick is learning the patter (or coming up with your own).

In magic, there's a VERY important skill in addition to the sleight of hand: knowing how to tell stories to create a magical atmosphere.

With this trick, you'll be able to put that into practice:

This was my first magic trick before I even knew magic & cardistry were a thing.

I hope it's easy for you to pick up.

The hardest part for me with this trick is convincing the spectator that I don't know the order of the cards. Since it's only 4 cards, it's tough to really sell the shuffle.

I've considered adding more cards, especially one-way cards, but I haven't tried it yet.

It's super simple. You can also use other asymmetrical cards, like certain court cards (depending on the deck), and actually most odd-numbered pip cards. Furthermore, some decks have asymmetrical back designs, letting you know if a card has been turned end-for-end just by looking at its back. Just be sure to keep an eye on what the spectator does with any card that's been reversed.
