Two Simple Magic Tricks To Learn
Wouldn't it be great if you could do some magic that you could use on your friends? at the next office party you could whip out a deck of cards and them confuse everyone with your trickery. Well, this need not be a dream and all you need to do is memorise a couple of easy magic tricks to learn and you are on your way.
The two tricks here are both very simple to execute and will simply use a little bit of misdirection in order to make sure that your audience is not focusing on the little tricks you are pulling off. So don't look the other way while I'm showing you what to do.
The first trick goes as follows. Grab yourself a deck of cards and get someone to pick out any card from the deck. When they are trying to remember it very sneakily turn the bottom card over and then flip the whole deck.
Get them to pop the card back in, anywhere they like and look away. Now say that you will find the card and put them behind you back, turn the top card back around and hand them back. The card will be the one that is flipped when they look through the deck.
Next try this easy trick. Shuffle up the cards once of twice. Then have a sneaky look at the bottom card without them seeing you. Now drop the cards from the bottom onto the ground and ask someone to say stop once you have reached the tenth or so card.
Now pick them up, and pile them up with the card you checked out sat on top. Give them the pile and let them take a look at the top card to remember- they will not know that you already know what it is. Now ask them to muddle up the cards as they wish for a while and then find their card to their utter amazement.
