Effect: You put a card in your
pocket, and one in the spectator's hand. Then the cards
change places.
Card Trick:
Pick up two cards from
the top of the deck and make them look as if they were one (double
lift). Show it to the audience, say the name of the card
(we'll assume that it's the Queen of Spades) and put it back
on the deck. Take the card that is really on top and put it in
your pocket. Do another double lift, show this card and name
it, and put it back on the deck. Take off the top card (which
is actually the one that you supposedly put in your pocket),
lay it on the spectator's hand, and tell him (or her) to put
his other hand over it like a sandwich. Palm the top card and
say "I am going to take out the Queen of Spades." Put your
hand in your pocket, take out the card you just palmed and
show it as you say "Turn your card over." When they do it
looks as if your card and their card changed places.
