If you like simple to learn and pretty impressive card tricks, then you’ve come to the right place. You’ll be able to perform this trick after only a few minutes practice. It does require a little bit of set up before you face your audience, so you can only do this trick once. This is popular with kids, as it doesn’t require any high level sleight of hand skills.

This is how the ruse will appear to your amazed audience. You take three Aces: Spades, Clubs, and Diamonds. You hold them out, showing them to the audience. Then you put them on top of the deck, and shuffle and cut the deck several times, making sure that they have been consistently dispersed.

You then ask a helper to come up and hunt for the Ace of Diamonds. They will explore in vain, as they won’t be able to uncover it. If you like, you can get another audience member to come up and search, but they too will be unproductive. Then you pull the Ace of Diamonds out of your shirt pocket. (Or your back pocket, or shoe, or wherever.)

Here’s how to set the trick up. First find all the Aces. Then put the Ace of Diamonds in your pocket (or shoe or wherever) beforehand. Then put the other Aces on top of the deck. When you draw the three Aces off the top, and fan them out, make sure to hold the Ace of Hearts in the center. If you position both other cards on either side of the Ace of Hearts, it will look like the Ace of Diamonds to the audience.

How you sound this is important. If you bring up beforehand that you are going to make the Ace of Diamonds vanish, they will be looking much more intimately. But if you just start of by unfolding what you are doing, and then name the three cards (Ace of Clubs, Spades, and Diamonds) they will likely believe you, and not glance too closely at the three cards.

One way that can extremely help is as you are shuffling and cutting the deck, is to divulge some long winded story about how diamonds have some kind of paranormal power, and in the old days when they were choosing the shapes for cards, they nearly didn’t choose diamonds because people were always stealing them, or they were always disappearing or something. That way, when they start wondering about the Ace of Diamonds, it will already be hidden someplace in the deck, or so they assume. Have fun with this trick.

This is a great magic trick that uses a deck of cards, and is always a hit with the kids. Even adults will have no clue how you do this amazing trick. The cool thing is that it requires no sleight of hand or any hidden cards or anything like that. This is a self working trick, meaning that it will always work, every time. And when they figure out how it’s done it will be amazing, but only if you show them.

Here’s how the ruse seems to your startled observers. You have all the cards of the equivalent suit taken out of the deck. So you’ve got all the hearts, or clubs, or whatever. Have them arranged in order, beginning from the ace, and ending with the king. If you are doing this with kids, you can even have them set the deck up for them.

After you’ve got it set up, then you go through the deck once, showing them all that they are really in order, starting from the ace, and ending at the king. If you like you can offer them the short stack and have them ensure for themselves to make sure there is nothing strange going on.

Then elucidate the secret to them. You have the stack face down. If they say “deal,” then you take one card off the top, and place it face down on the desk, in a new stack. If they say “double deal” then you take two cards off the top, reverse the order and then place them face down in the same stack. Do this until you’ve gone through all the cards. Tell them that they have to remember the new order that the cards are in. While they are busily trying to re estimate the order, you pick up the new stack, and begin to turn each card over one by one. They will be staggered to see that the cards are still in the same order, beginning from the ace, up to the king.

Most frequently, they will ask you to do it again, and again. And the cool part is, since this is a self working trick, they can do it themselves and it will still work. The reason it works should be clear once you do this a few times. If you take only one card off the top, and place it in the new stack, (deal), or take two cards, and reverse the order, placing them in the new stack (double deal) they still end up in the same order, no matter if you deal or double deal them. To see how this works, do the trick with all the cards facing up, and you’ll see how it works out.

This is incredible for kids of all ages, and several of them will never deduce how it works even after they do the trick themselves. Of course, you’ll occasionally run into a young academic or natural mathematician who’ll see right through this trick and comprehend how it’s down. Nevertheless, this trick is astonishing for endless amounts of amusement, even with adults. Have fun with this easy trick.
