This trick has FOOLED ME for over 20 years. #cardtrick #cardmagic #math #puzzle #magician #cards

Since it’s Christmas, I’ll share one of my most mind-blowing tricks. I hate how long and tedious it is, but most math tricks are. If you can tolerate the wait, it’s a hell of a mystery. The steps:

1. You must be playing with a full deck.
2. Shuffle and deal 4 piles. Each pile must contain more than 10 cards.
3. Pick a random number 1-10 and move that many cards from the top to the bottom of each pile.
4. Turn each pile face up and subtract the two highest cards from the two lowest cards.
5. Turn the piles face down and move that many cards from the bottom to the top.
6. Turn the top cards face up and remember the lowest value.
7. Deal down to that number in each pile and you’ll find a matching four of a kind.

@1:55 mark "20 and 11, which is 9 cards". how do you get 9 cards out of 20 and 11?

I love the “f you” when you happened to roll the 2 again knowing that commenters would give you a hard time about it.

[kenhaley]

There must be something more to it. First of all, if the cards are truly randomized, why is each 10 in its own pile? No pile has 2 or more 10s! The odds of that are only 3/32.
