Self Working. Hits Hard. Amazing Card Trick Revealed!

The magician has a deck of cards and removes them from the box. He then shows the spectator the backs of the cards and the faces of the cards to show they're all mixed and they're in no particular order. He then tells the spectator that he wants them to choose two cards. So just say stop whenever you want, and let's just say the spectator says stop here, and this is genuinely a free choice. If the spectator wants to keep going they can keep going, so let's say they say stop here, and the first card the spectator has chosen is this one, and the second card is the one below it, which is this one here. These cards are then returned exactly where they're found in the deck, and the rest of the cards go on top. There's no breaks, there's no funny moves and everything is clean and fair. The magician then says that he wants to lose the spectator's card into the deck even more and he's going to do this by creating four different piles. So the Magician has four roughly even piles, and to make things even more random, he mixes around two of the piles to change the order of all the cards, and then he instructs the Spectator to mix up the cards as much as they want. So the Spectator takes these two piles and riffle shuffles them together, and then truly mixes them up with an overhand shuffle as well. The Magician does not touch the cards. The Spectator does the same with these two piles. He picks them up, he riffle shuffles them together, if he can do that, And then he gives them an overhand shuffle as well. Again, the magician does not touch the cards, and everything is clean and fair. Once the spectator's done this the magician then turns over one of the packets and says he's going to do something that no magician ever does. He's going to mix the face up into face down cards to truly make the deck a complete mess. So the magician mixes all the cards up and pushes them together just like this and then gives them one final cut. Now at this point the spectator freely chose any card that they wanted. The spectator then put the cards back in the deck, everything was mixed up by the spectator, and the magician has no idea what the spectator's card is, nor where it is. But when he snaps his fingers and spreads through the cards, you'll see that all of the cards are red, apart from one black four of spades here. And if we flip the cards over, all of the cards on this side, these are all black, apart from one red two of diamonds here. And these are the spectator's chosen cards. The spectator is fooled. Welcome back to the channel everyone Oscar Owen here and I hope you enjoyed watching that magic trick. Now in the performance I was actually using the Double O Noir playing cards which is a luxury and beautiful deck of cards that I'm releasing very very soon on Kickstarter. Now these cards have a beautiful golden ribbon on their edge. They're printed on the best card stock possible, meaning they just handle so well in your hands when it comes to performing. And if you want to support the channel then it really would mean the world to me if you backed these playing cards on Kickstarter. So we're releasing them very very soon, we're only releasing a limited number of them as well, so please click the first link in the description, sign up to them on Kickstarter and you'll know exactly when they're released. Anyway, let's learn the trick! Hey everyone I'm so so excited to teach you this magic trick. It's an absolute killer and it's pretty much self-working. Now I'm using the Double O Noir playing cards for this trick. It would mean the world to me if you backed them on Kickstarter but you can use any deck of cards for this. Now there's a little setup required which is you need all the cards to alternate red black red black red black throughout the deck. So just take your deck of cards and alternate them red black the whole way through and then you're ready to begin. So you remove the cards from the box and you show the backs and then you can show the faces to the spectator just to showcase that they're in no particular order. Now very importantly when you showcase the faces of the cards of the spectator you don't run through them individually because they might notice that it's going red black. Instead what you want to do is push across clumps of cards like this and you just do it very quickly and it looks like the deck is in no particular order. So you say hey look I've got a deck of cards here These are the cards, the faces, and, you know, here are the backs. Let's do a trick. That's how you kind of get into it. The next thing you want to do is for the spectator to choose two cards. If you've got two spectators, this is like the perfect trick for them. But you basically say, say stop whenever you want, all right? And there's no force here. So they can either reach in and they can touch your card, or you can just dribble through the cards like this. So let's just say they say stop here. What you're going to do is show them. The first card that they stopped at and this is the only sleight in them in this whole trick. You don't put this card back on the deck, you put this card on the table and then you show them the second card below it and then you put this card on top. Then you're going to return these two cards to the packet that's in your hand, not the packets on the table, the packets in your hand, and the rest of the cards will go on top. And what you've just done is you reverse the order of these two cards so that the red-black pattern doesn't work anymore. So you can now see there's two black cards together, and when this packet would go on top, there'd be two red cards together. So this packet goes on top, and now the whole trick is set up, and it's basically just ready to go. You can give the cards as many cuts as you want at this point, it just really doesn't matter because cutting the cards doesn't actually change the order and the red-black pattern will still continue. And then you explain to the spectator you want them to mix up the cards in a very special way to make it truly random. You deal out four piles, so you go from left to right, one, two, three, four, but here's the second thing you've got to remember. You don't just deal out another card here, here, here, instead you go back this way, so we go left to right, and then right to left, and the other rule you've got to remember is you never put one card on the same pile twice, meaning we don't put a second card here, we put it in the middle pile, this pile, and then this pile, and then we don't put this card This card here, we put it back here. So the middle two piles are going to have more cards than the other ones, if that makes sense. So you just deal the packets down like this and I'll speed this part of the video up to save you time. Cool, so I've dealt out all the cards and essentially if we turn the cards over now, you'll see the situation we have which is all of these cards here, they're going to be red and all of these cards here, they're going to be black with one red card in the middle. All of these cards here, they're going to be red with one black card which is the spectator's card and all of these cards here, they're going to be black. The final thing we're going to do is we just need to switch around the middle two piles. Okay, so we do this under the guise of making this even more random. So you say, hey, look, to make this even more random, I'm going to switch this pile and this pile. So it really, so I don't know what cards are where. And then I want you to mix these two piles together. So the spectator can riffle shuffle these cards together. They can overhand shuffle them together. It really doesn't matter because all they're doing now is they're mixing all the red cards with one black card, which is their selection. And it's exactly the same with this packet here. They mix up all the cards. They can give them an overhand shuffle if they want as well. And then the final thing we do, is once they're happy that these two piles are mixed we just turn over one packet and say that we're going to mix the cards face up into face down so you just riffle shuffle the cards or merge the cards together face up into face down push them together you can even give the cards a few more cuts at this point if you want as well it really doesn't matter and then simply when you spread through the cards like this you'll notice that all the cards are black apart from one red Red Four of Diamonds, which is their card. And then if we flip the card, The card's over, all the cards on this side, these are all red, with one black four of spades, which was their selection. And that's how this amazing magic trick works.
