A card is chosen and lost. The magician takes out several groups of five cards. The spectator indicates which group contains their card. He clearly shows that he has five cards in his hand, then just as clearly makes one disappear... which happens to be the spectator's card! The card is found face up in the deck! Everything is handed out for examination at the end. To buy: - a regular deck of cards click here. - some single regular cards click here.  

Basically, “Hand Mucking” is a gambler's technique for secretly exchanging one or more cards during a card game. Applied to card magic, these techniques allow you to magically transform one card (or several) into another (or several others). To buy a regular deck of cards click here.  

The magician explains that when he goes to a casino, he “steals” one of the cards and gives it a casino rating from A to Z, which he has marked on the back of each card. He shows that he has a dozen cards, which are thoroughly shuffled face up and face down, both by himself and by a spectator. Five cards are randomly selected by a spectator, who is really lucky, as the cards spell out the word “Lucky”! And when these cards are turned over, they form a royal flush in spades! Success guaranteed!  

After thoroughly shuffling the deck, the spectator deals the cards one by one onto the table; the card on which he stops is the one that the magician had predicted in advance, thanks to his intuition! To buy an ordinary deck of cards click here.  

The basic effect: The spectator and the magician each think of a card and these two cards end up side by side in the deck of cards. Which is stranger: that the magician's card is next to the spectator's card or the other way around? A disturbing and beautiful effect! In this version, the spectator is free to choose any card from the 52 cards in the deck, and for the climax, the card thought of by the spectator is the only card with a different back! Devastating!

The magician proposes to perform “Three Impossible Things” with the help of a spectator. The spectator shuffles and cuts the deck between each of the three phases. And yet, a four of a kind in Kings is produced first, then they mysteriously gather in the same place after being separated, and finally, the four Aces will appear!

To complete Dominique Duvivier's study of this type of Ace Assembly effect. This time, the magician makes one packet with the four Aces and three packets with four indifferent cards. The packets are mixed face down. The spectator points to one packet... and it's the one containing the Aces! To buy regular decks of cards  click here.  

Let's continue the saga of Ace Assembly effects. The four Aces are laid out on the table in a row, with three indifferent cards placed on top of each Ace. The first three Aces disappear from their respective packets and collect in the last packet. Neat and tidy!  To buy an ordinary deck of cards  click here.  

Two cards are freely chosen by two spectators from a deck that has been previously checked and shuffled. The two cards are signed, one on the front, the other on the back. The signatures magically teleport from one card to the other. Everything is handed out for examination at the end. To buy an ordinary deck of cards  click here.

A card is freely chosen and lost in the deck. The cards are shuffled; the magician spells out the name of the chosen card, placing one card per letter, and on the last letter, the card is turned over... it is the chosen card! The trick can be repeated immediately! Guaranteed success! To buy some decks of cards click here.  

Yannick Chrétien has described his own version of this classic card trick on this platform (see “Open Travellers (Yannick Chrétien)” below). David Stone demonstrates his own personal way of presenting it (no explanation).  

From a shuffled deck, a spectator selects three cards. Then, out of thin air, the magician produces the four Aces. These four Aces are all transformed into the first card selected. For example, if the first card is the Jack of Hearts, there are no more Aces, only Jacks of Hearts. The trick is repeated with the second chosen card, then the third one. At the end, you have the four Aces again, the three chosen cards, and everything is handed out for examination! A real killer! To buy a regular deck of cards click here.
