Card technique: This false shuffle allows the deck to appear to be perfectly shuffled, while the cards remain in the same order at the beginning and at the end. This false shuffle is extremely convincing. Dominique Duvivier gives an application of this false shuffle: it is a "Triumph" where the cards are shuffled face up, face down, and at the end, all the cards magically come back face down except for the previously chosen card which is the only face up card.  

A very original and magical way to give your business card! The magician displays his business cards. A spectator signs one. Incredibly, next to his signature, a message appears when it was not there before! Easy to do.

The magician sets one card aside, saying that “this card doesn't exist... or almost doesn't”. Then he displays two small packets, saying that he has foreseen in advance what the spectator will choose; the spectator points to one packet, and the magician shows that it is made up of a four of a kind in sevens... but the other packet is made up of 7 cards! He reunites the packets, and there are now only 8 cards: the four sevens... and four Aces! He then adds the card that doesn't exist... and indeed, it disappears! Everything is handed out for examination. To buy a regular deck of cards click here.

This routine is completely suitable for children, even the very young (aged 4 and over).  

Tsunami: Japanese word that means "tidal wave". It is a trick that will devastate the brains of your audience, whether they are laymen or magicians. This variation is based on a Bob Hummer principle. This routine is a completely atypical Tsunami, as there are no chosen cards, but this time the cards are shuffled completely randomly, face-up, face-down, and yet, as the deck is cut into two parts, there are the same number of face-up cards in each!

The spectator shuffles the deck. The magician draws a card at random. The spectator freely names a card... and it's the card that had been set aside! A true miracle!! To buy a regular deck of cards click here.  

The spectator chooses a card, which is lost in the deck. A magic pass, and a card mysteriously turns up face up in the center of the deck; but against all odds, it is not the one chosen by the spectator: it is the 5 of Hearts. The magician then counts the cards one by one from the 5, and the fifth one turns out to be... the chosen card. The four cards that were counted to get to the 5 of Hearts are turned face up... they're the four Aces! And as the icing on the cake, the magician shows that he couldn't have done it any other way, since the other cards in the deck are shown: they're all blank! A completely automatic trick, but devilishly effective! To buy: - a regular deck of cards click here. - a blank face deck of cards click here.
