the best card trick in the world

It’s Monday which means I owe you a magic trick. I recorded this one a few days ago in the pub. There’s no sound so I’m going to explain what’s going on. The camera angle is not ideal, but this can be used to your advantage because it makes it pretty easy to figure out how the trick is done. So watch, learn, and impress your friends.

2 spectators pick a card each and then place them on top of the deck. The deck is shuffled and cut into two equal piles. A spectator holds one pile while the magician holds the other. The magician takes half of the cards from one pile and turns them face up and places them on the face down half. The same is done with the pile the spectator is holding. These 2 piles are then put on top of each other. The cards magically all turn back the right way around except for the 2 cards the spectators chose.

    I wanna learn to do magic card tricks. However, I can’t even shuffle cards properly.
