Magic Trick Effect: The spectator is shown a fanned out set of cards and asked to pick one & concentrate on that magic card. The chosen card is not revealed by the spectator. The magician appears to read the spectators mind and pulls out or even tears up the spectators secretly chosen card.
Magic Trick Preparation: For this magic trick you'll need two sets of cards, each with five cards. (The magical cards should be five different cards, but should resemble each other (for instance, if you had a Jack of spades in one, use a Jack of clubs in the other). ie SET ONE : JC,KS,KH,QS,JD. and SET TWO: JS,KC, KD,QC,JH.
Magic Trick Method: Hide the second set of five magical cards, but keep them somewhere close, so that you can secretly switch them with the other set of five cards. Now, fan out the five cards. Tell the spectator to remember and concentrate on one of the cards. Now, as you collect the cards, you'll need to switch between the two sets. Now spread out the second set of cards on the table, face down on the magic desk.
Use some play acting and appear to be concentrating deeply as if reading the spectator's thoughts. Place your magicalfinger on one of the spread out cards and slide it out from the rest of the cards. The finishing move is up to you, either
1) Turn over the remaining four cards to show that the spectator's card has been removed.
2) Tear the card that you removed into small pieces, making sure that the spectator does not see the face up side of the torn card.
A simple trick but with a powerful finish. This trick is only as good as the performance and patter that you can use to make it entertaining.
