Effect: The performer asks the spectator to pick a card without him seeing the face and replace it in the pack. The pack is then shuffled and the performer is apparently unsuccesful in locating the card. After a few attempts, the cards are thrown against a window in a fit of rage, on looking at the window, the chosen card is seen to be sticking to it, even more suprising is the fact that the card is on the inside of the window. Preparation: You will need two identical packs of cards and a willing helper.

When you riffle the deck front to back, only the regular cards are visible; when the deck is riffled back to front, only the shortened cards are visible.

(Note: any other bottle that has a pop up safety button will work) First you need 3 Duplicate cards to perform this trick. Take 2 cards holding them very tightly; rip off a corner of the card.

I normally change what I carry with me, as far as pocket magic, about every other week or so and alternate in and out a few of my favorites, because I don’t have the pocket space to carry them all at once. One of the absolute favorites is: Eye Exam. Eye Exam Trick In this trick, I use a regular pack of cards and force one which I can’t seem to find.  After getting it wrong a few times, I ask them if they are sure they actually saw the card and ask th
