description: The trick that have brought me the greatest reactions so far
Just today, I brought my homemade marked deck of bikes to school. I wanted to show my "mean skills in card location"
I told her to pick any card she liked, and stick half way in the deck, so that I could really see exactly where she put it in, before losing it in a shuffle (of course I knew what the card was at this time). Then I told her, that if she didn't believe this was fair, she could shuffle the card herself, and she did. Then I took the deck back and cut her card to the top.
I then performed the double lift to apparently show her card, and she started to giggle and said, "no, it was the 7 of spades - it's right here" as she took the deck out of my hands to find her card. Then I simply got rid of the x-card and calmly sat with the "wrong" card face down, until she looked up from the deck with wonder in her face. I giggled back and turned the 7 of spades over, and she freaked out!
Best experience ever..
