Hi there. If you are looking for information on how to do magic tricks you've come to the right place.
Following are 2 easy card tricks. For those of you just starting out to learn magic tricks, these 2 are a good place to start.
They might be easy but you will still have to practice hard.
Card Trick #1
Matching Pair!
The Trick - You the magician, pick out two cards from the deck. You ask a volunteer to cut the deck. You then flip over the cards that the volunteer chose, then you flip over the two cards of the deck that were cut. You have a matching pair.
How it's done.
1# Shuffle the deck so your audience doesn't think you've rigged it.
2# Tell them you will pick two cards from the deck. Go through the deck and make sure that you look at the bottom card of the deck and the top card of the deck.
3# Pick out a card that matches the bottom card. (If the bottom card is a Four of Hearts, you would pick out the Four of Diamonds to match it.) Then pick out a card that is the same as the top card.
4# Now ask the volunteer to cut the deck.
5# Take the first card, the one on top of the original top of the deck, and flip it over.
6# Flip the bottom half of the deck over completely.
7# Flip over the cards you picked. They all match!
Card Trick 2#
Hey Dude!
The Trick - You the magician, hand a full pack of cards to a volunteer and ask them to shuffle the deck. (Make sure it's a FULL pack.) Ask the volunteer to deal the deck into two piles. Have them choose one of the piles and to remember the bottom card. Tell the volunteer to show the bottom card to the audience, but not to you. Ask them to place the pile containing the bottom card on top of the other pile. Then ask the volunteer to deal the deck into four piles from left to right.
Pick up each pile and ask the volunteer to see if their card is in that pile. As you ask, reassemble the deck, making sure the pile with their card goes on the very top. Give the deck to the volunteer and have them deal the cards, one at a time face down on the table, spelling out the word "PRESTO". Have them turn the next card over.
Hey Dude!
This is their chosen card!
