Magic Plans:
(4) CARD RISER :
Card magic books seem to be authored by those who have two favorite
phrases: 'first, force a card' and 'bring the selected card to the
top of the deck.'
Price: $US 5
(5) COIN PLATE :
The magician, with hands obviously empty, takes up a small plate
or coffee cup saucer and extends it toward a spectator, asking the
spectator to place a coin on the plate.
The magician then rubs the
coin on the surface of the plate. As his fingers come away from
the plate, the coin is seen to have multiplied to two coins.
The magician rubs the two coins around the surface of the plate
and the spectators see that the two coins have become three.
Price: $US 5
(6) THE ADVANCED OUT :
The magician gives the spectator the deck to shuffle, then
asks her to remove one card without looking at it and return the
rest of the deck. The magician steps away, telling the spectator
to look at the selected card, he then gives her the deck, asking
her to return her card and again shuffle the deck.Explaining that
determining the suit of a card someone is just thinking of is rarely
a problem, but mentally diving the value can sometimes be troublesome.
For that reason, the magician asks the spectator to remove the three
cards of the same value but other suits that match her selected
card, look at each one for a moment to reinforce the value, then
place the three cards face down on the table. The magician takes
the deck, picks up the face down cards one at a time without looking
them and shuffles each one into the deck. Asking the spectator to
picture the card's value and suit, the magician fans the cards towards
himself, looks at the spectator and tells her to think, but not
say, Stop when she sees her card. Removing cards one at a time and
placing them face up on the table, the magician suddenly pauses
as he is about to remove yet another card, looks at the spectator,
points at the last face up card on the table, and asks her if she
is thinking Stop. The spectator admits she is, that being the card
she selected from the deck.
