A card chosen by a spectator ends up at the number determined by that same spectator. A very interesting variation on the ACAAN (Any Card At Any Number) theme. To buy a regular deck of cards click here.  

This is the trick where the spectator does the trick himself (in appearance, of course!). He shuffles the deck, cuts it, freely chooses his card, reshuffles the deck after the card has been lost... and it is found at the number he has himself designated! Boris Wild also gives us several variations for revealing the chosen card! This trick is included in the VHS program “Les Etoiles de la Magie Moderne: Boris Wild” (Stars of Modern Magic: Boris Wild), published by Mayette Magie in 1997.
