I have done some of your beginner tricks for my nephews and nieces.
I am their new God.

Love the plot to the first trick. I've seen other variations where at the end you have the spectator choose a four or five letter "magic word" for the final reveal, but using the word "truth" is much cleaner.

Something about your style... entertaining, and you clearly have a passion for teaching. Plain to see. Love this channel!

Great tricks. I don't know why, but I am especially fond of #3

[emmanuelpower]

Have to go to party tomorrow and desperately learning the first trick. Never done a public trick in my life!!!😮😅😊😅😮

[MannyEmm]

I love your card tricks….I love them even more when I do them for my family and entertain them. I really love the tricks that don’t have a set up. Thank you so much. I have been a fan of close up card tricks for many years.

[aceinyofacetv]

I love everything you do, number one and two are my favorites.

[navicks]

For the first one you can also spell another word that contains 5 letters instead of spelling "Truth". What I like doing is spell my spectators name (only if it contains 5 letters).
Third one also you can spell another word that contains 9 letters instead of spelling "Card Trick". It all depends on your creativity.
Aside of all that, this is a great tutorial especially for begginers.

that 3rd one is great, but tbh this could have just as easily been 3 separate videos, they are all good!

[EinsAmusica]

i love the last trick. What I love to do after they have selected the card that I add some false cuts so the spectactor thinks his card is completly lost

[Rob-ekwv]

Thanks for this video Matt. Really easy to follow, and just great all-round presentation.

I thought of a variant to the first one, which could confuse the person you're showing the trick to even more. If when they have selected their card and put it to the bottom of one pile you get them to place that pile on a second one, but then give them the choice to put it on top or below the last pile. If they choose on top follow your original method, but if they choose to go underneath then spell out "THE" card of choice. E.g. "THE ACE OF SPADES. 😉 I've tried it a couple of times and think it works (unless I've just been lucky!) 😂

I'm laughing for pure happiness (again). At first I thought, 'Matt missed the explanation for the first trick!' Then I thought, 'try it out, dummy...' So I did, and it worked, and I realized that no explanation was necessary.

[garywong]

I really like the Ace in your Face one! It’s a unique looking trick. I think the “folding” idea will really make it stand out for an audience member. Really neat! Thank you for sharing.

[zunceih]

Matt! Great trio of self working tricks...fabulous for family and friends get together!!

[szunvukung]

Many thanks for the newer great tricks!
Unfortunately the first one does not functional hungarian :(

I knew the third one little bit different. I think it is, ,functioning" that way, the chosen card is in the 9th position from bottom (Card trick = 9 letter), thats mean, is 44th position from top.
We count 4 times from 10 to 0. It is no matter, if we count 1 card (in case of 10), and add later 10, or we count 11 cards, (in case of no match), add add later 0. And the the same procedure with the other numbers in case of other matches. (in case of match with 7, we count down 4 cards, and add later 7).
It does it mean, we got always 11 per pile, and the 4 pile are all together 44, which one is always the choosen card.

You deserve 1M subs for these amazing tricks! thanks

[lennyw]

Love all of the these tricks. Especially ones I can link to maths.
The first trick, LIE DETECTOR works because you aren’t really shuffling the cards at all. You are just reversing the position of your chosen card from top to bottom with each count.
Practise the trick with just the chosen card face up and it will make sense.
EXPLANATION.
* After your volunteer has seen the bottom card of one of the three x 3-card packs and you place that pack on the others, the chosen card will be third card from TOP.
* When you next count the cards face down, your card will always end up third from the BOTTOM, regardless what you count.
Now, when you next count “O”, “F” and place the remaining pack on top those two cards your card will ALWAYS end up fifth card from bottom.
Next, count any number of cards face down and your card will always end up fifth card from the top.
Finally, any five letter word, like TRUTH, will take you to the chosen card.
Everything else is just brilliant flimflam.
Thank you so much for this. 🙏🏼

I have used this trick method for years, only I dress it up a little different, as a prediction. Let the spectator shuffle and deal out 12 cards, you try to spot the bottom card and make your prediction. They pick up the 12 cards, look at them and select any four, which they put on table face up. Then place the deck on the 8 left over cards. You can then pick up the deck and very deliberately and openly deal a card on each of the face up cards to bring each total to 10, like add three cards to a 7 or 6 cards to a 4, nothing to a 10. Total of the face up cards is where the prediction is.

[RobertBallMagician]

Hey on the Truth card trick. To add a mix in. You can deal cards into two piles from left to right then pick up the piles from left to right. Then deal again left to right then pick up the piles right to left this resets there card 3rd from the top. 😊😊

[jddallas]

trick number 3 always comes up 2 cards short of the selected card for me....??

[eyeforswing]

Great tricks and great channel. The last trick (countdown) has a little kink! If you use above a certain amount of cards (probably the same) or the number added together amounts to more than 26, then you have to subtract 1 from the number you lay down before the selection.
