"I checked out the Open Prediction 2025 and just wanted to say that's really cool. It's the exact type of card effects I like. It's just a genius method, so strong and direct, I love it. The fact it's so approachable for any skill level is great too." - Matt Overd
One of my favorite plots in card mentalism is the "Open Prediction". Many different scripts and presentations are possible with this classic from Paul Curry.
In this new method, we follow these practical conditions:
- Shuffled deck (even an incomplete one)
- A card is named as the "Open Prediction"
- Cards are dealt face down in your open hand until the participant decides for one
- That precise card is placed face down (no switches)
- The other cards are dealt on top to show that the named card is not in there
- The reversed card is shown to be the named one!
- 100% impromptu
- No gimmicks
- Very direct and simple, no difficult sleights
