Cards in Magic & Mentalism: page 43

A thought of card is conveyed to everyone (without writing down or uttering a single word) while the performer has his back towards the audience.

Then, the three remaining cards are turned over: They have changed into the 2S, 2D and 2C! Finally, you spread the deck: The JS, JD and JC are face up in the middle of the deck, with one face-down card between the...
