Completely impromptu, locating two freely thought-of cards.

The spectator freely shuffles the deck and cuts it into two packets. Two spectators each think of a card, then freely cut their packets before the two packets are combined.

The spectators freely cut the cards, think of two selections, and mix up the deck. There is no stack. Even so, the magician can accurately determine the exact position of both selections in the deck.

After years of studying matrix routines and building on Vanni Bossi's effect, Patricio decided to fully evolve the fire matrix routine plot with his own handling and applications. You will learn new movements and explosive routines, and even examples of fire matrix routines that can be done without extra chips.

The Matrix effect evolved....

A very direct card routine designed to fool magicians.

The spectator freely selects two cards, which are cut into the middle of the deck. The magician snaps his fingers, and two face-up Jokers appear in the middle of the deck, each immediately followed by one of the selections.

But that's not all. The two Jokers divide the deck into three packets. The top and bottom cards of all three packets reveal the values of the two selections.

A very fooling self-working card routine.

The spectator shuffles the deck and takes 8 cards. They freely choose 3 of them and add up their values. The magician shows the cards one at a time, and the spectator remembers the card at the position corresponding to the total. The magician then shuffles the cards and removes the remaining 5 cards. Their values add up to the exact position of the spectator's selection.

A fooling sandwich routine with a simple, fast effect.

The magician takes out two Jokers and places them on the table, then has the spectator select a card and place it into the middle of the deck, outjogged. The magician then transfers the selection between the two Jokers. But here's the question: if the selection has traveled between the Jokers, what is the outjogged card in the middle of the deck? The magician turns over the card in the middle of the deck, revealing the other card of the same value and suit as the selection. At the same time, the two Jokers instantly change into the other...

In an escalating sequence, the performer reveals predictions of matching colors, numbers, and ultimately a playing card.

EFFECT:

Twelve cards are removed from a regular deck. Four are used as prediction cards. The spectator cuts the remaining eight, mixes them three times, and divides them into two equal piles.

He places the top card of each pile in front of the first prediction and repeats the procedure, placing each pair in front of the next prediction. The pairs are turned face up. Only two of them match in color—one is a red pair and the other a black pair. (The mismatched pairs,...

A selected card is returned to the deck; the deck is boxed. A razor blade is inserted into the box. After shaking the box in an attempt to locate the selected card, the box is opened. The cards are poured onto the table. Surprise. The cards are all cut into pieces except for the selected card. A perfect finish for any card sequence.

A fooling card trick designed to fool magician friends. A Self-Working effect.

The spectator freely cuts off a packet, remembers the bottom card, and returns it to the middle of the deck. The magician then cuts to the middle of the deck and claims that three cuts will locate the spectator’s selection. After three consecutive cuts, none of the cards is the selection. However, the values of the three cards cut to add up to the exact position of the selection.

Two chosen symbols perfectly match a prediction that was in full view from the very beginning.

EFFECT:

The performer introduces a 50-card ESP deck (two regular 25-card decks combined) to two spectators. He divides the deck into two piles, explaining that he is going to explore the connection between the three of them.

For this, he asks each spectator to think of a different number between 1 and 20. He deals down to each spectator’s chosen number, one card from each pile at a time, and sets aside the two selected cards for each spectator. The four cards are then arranged in a square...

A very special way to locate a card—guaranteed to fool you.

The spectator freely cuts the deck and remembers the bottom card. The magician then claims that the trick has something to do with the number 12, and counts twelve indifferent cards from the top to the bottom twice. The magician then deals through the cards, attempting to locate the spectator's selection, but ultimately deals to a Queen. Counting twelve cards down from the top reveals the spectator's selection. Not only that, but the spectator's random cut position and the two packets of twelve cards also come into play. Turn...

I am very happy to present this new Spellbound routine! The main feature of this method is that it allows you to repeat the transformation again and again, creating a continuous and highly visual sequence of changes.

The method is very easy to perform and is based on one of the approaches explained in my book Giacomo Bertini's System for Amazement. I developed this handling to make the transformations practical, direct, and suitable for real close-up performances.

The result is a highly visual Spellbound sequence that can be repeated several times in succession, while keeping the handling...

Four cards with the same backs change their design every time they are turned over. Eventually, they change into four aces with different backs.

A simple but very direct Collector routine.

The magician displays four Aces and has the spectator freely select a card and shuffle it into the deck. The selection is then transferred to the middle of the four Aces. Remove the selection, and three additional cards matching its value appear between the four Aces.

Performance transcript:

• For the next effect, we'll need the four Aces.
• Next, have a spectator freely select a card.
• The spectator selects the Nine of Hearts.
• Place the selected card into the center of the deck.

A completely impromptu card routine.

The magician takes out the Ace of Spades, framing it as a bullet, then assembles the deck into the shape of a gun. The spectator freely inserts the Ace of Spades anywhere in the "gun," representing the bullet being loaded into the chamber.

The magician then has the spectator freely cut the deck and remember a card. Finally, the deck is reassembled into the gun and bullet. The spectator's selection shoots out of the deck like a fired bullet.

• Here I have the Ace of Spades —...

Absolutely a card technique you've never seen before.

This is an original card technique I developed that lets the spectator decide where two packets are interlaced, followed by a push-through handling to complete the cut. It can be used to cut to all four Aces or other target cards. Here are two routines using this technique:

Forklift Match: The spectator freely selects two cards. The magician splits the deck in two and lets the spectator decide where the two packets are interlaced. The magician then cuts the deck into three packets, with the top and bottom cards of the three packets...

A bewildering number of color changes. You first show four five-of-diamonds. They suddenly have large crosses drawn on their faces. The crosses also appear on the backs. Then they change to the four aces, and on top of that, each ace has a different back design.

A foolproof card routine for fooling your magician friends.

The magician has the spectator cut a packet into three piles, just as he does, and remembers the cards they cut to. The magician turns his cut-to card face up and exchanges it with the spectator's card, placing them at their freely chosen cut positions. The spectator then shuffles the cards. The magician splits the deck into two packets and deals from both simultaneously. When he stops at the face-up card, the corresponding card in the other packet is the spectator's selection. Not only that, the cards stop at exactly the positions...

You start with four blue double-backers. They turn into four red double-backers. And then they change into four of a kind, for example, the four eights, and each one has a different back.

A new handling of a classic plot.

A spectator freely selects a card. The magician claims he will cut to the other three cards of the same value. He cuts three cards and leaves each face up in the deck. At the end, they are revealed to be the wrong value. But when the deck is spread, the three face-up cards have impossibly changed into the other three mates of the spectator's selection.

Performance transcript:

• First, shuffle the deck.
• Have the spectator freely select a card.
• Let's say they select this card.
• Remember your card.
