A prediction effect with ESP cards that fits in your pocket.
The performer invites a spectator to take part in a brief experiment in intuition. He removes a small packet of cards from an envelope, holding it face down as he explains that it contains all five E.S.P. symbols.
After confirming that he has no way of knowing the order of the cards, the spectator freely names a number between one and five (inclusive). Let's say he chooses four. The performer counts the cards and removes the one corresponding to that number – let's say it is the Circle. The remaining four cards are clearly shown, revealing the other symbols.
The envelope is then turned over. On the other side is written: YOU WILL CHOOSE THE CIRCLE.
Easy to do. Resets in a second. Nothing to add or remove. No gimmick. Any number from 1 to 5 (inclusive) can be named.
