Simplest Card Trick you will ever learn

This is an advanced version of the old "Pick a Card" trick. There is no sleight of hand required and it is almost a self-working card trick.

Thank you so much for this. I love that you are willing to give us enthusiasts little card tricks like this to do at parties and whatnot. Love your work.

I once heard a magician say defending the craft if we showed you It would ruin everything and I disagree because it always fascinates me how much planning and structure is involved to give the audience the "appearance" of MAGIC! Thanks for Sharing!

So simple yet so effective.
The shuffles and the cuts really work wonders for this trick.

Very well done, ...thank you for posting. "Hand me a deck of your effect ever on any card trick. You explain it well. I'll use this a lot. Thank you again.

At then beginning of the trick, I actually did choose the 2 of clubs and now I am REALLY impressed! 👍

I did the presentation like this: I would take the deck and start turning cards over looking for the 10 of spades and then I would count 11 cards dealing them face up 1 at a time. I would then go past the ace of hearts and keep dealing them up one at a time and I would randomly stop and say: are you willing to bet me a drink that the next card I turn over is your card? They say heck yeah because they saw their card already turned over. You reach over to the ace of hearts and turn it over. I just think it is a better reveal that way and it is quite effective....

Cool trick, I'll definitely try it. Also, I picked the 2 of clubs, so that made your video just that much more fun.

The Bicycle Rider backs are the perfect choice. They are quite common at Walgreens & Walmart. I like that they are blue -- blue looks/feels less magical. Everything looks innocent. What bothered me a bit was using "key card" in your patter again & again. It's like mentioning something about magic w/o going into it. It's a bit distracting, & they may not have thought about things like that until you mentioned it. If I used "key card" in the patter, I'd use it for fellow magicians or friends somewhat familiar w/card magic. Then they'd be surprised by how often they've mixed the cards. If I was doing it, I wouldn't move my hands around so much, especially near the cards. That might be perceived as misdirection for switching/moving cards. Otherwise, I like it a LOT! It's nice to see you have a following. I hope you are performing for CA$H.

By chance, I picked the two of clubs in your initial demonstration which made this EXTRA cool for me at home. :)

Dan, you are excellent. Thnx. I cant wait to do this trick . I dont want to say anything about key cards on top or the bottom of the deck, coz i mite use a key card in my next trick, and i dont want that to be known.
I dont want to teach one of our forces to a spectator.
This is still an awesome trick.
Im gona just say something else or nothing at all.
I cant wait till your next trick. Thank you, Dan.

Only half watching the initial portion on a tiny phone screen, my intuition was chsd - but like many great effects it was so much simpler. Great job explaining it!
