Two-Faced ACAAN

Biagio Fasano
Read more about Two-Faced ACAAN by Biagio Fasano

This is a doubly magical effect in which a spectator selects a card from the deck - twice - based on the number resulting from the roll of two imaginary dice.

It's an effect in which the magician shows the entire deck to the audience while removing the two Jokers, shuffes it, and has a spectator cut the deck and complete - over and over again, as many times as the spectator wishes. When satisfied, the magician will stack a small pile of face-down cards, setting aside the rest of the deck. The spectator will imagine rolling two six-sided dice and mentally read the total (from 2 to 12). He...

Twelve of the tricks explained here are in the nature of predictions. In five, the performer predicts the names of cards that will be drawn; in two, numbers that will be written down; and in yet others, one or more words, a throw of the dice, the amount of money in the possession of anyone whom a spectator may choose to call by telephone, the musical selection a spectator will play or sing, and other tests of prevision. It will be noted that there is a family likeness about these 12 tricks, as is almost inevitable in feats of this...

Now in case you consider the reviewer to be as negative as Mr. Leat I did consider the placement of a four inch dice into an empty hat with the subsequent production of a glass of wine, cigars, powder puff and a 16 inch by 12 inch cross suitably covered in flowers so as to give the appearance of a wreath which reflected a "Rakes" life and demise of some value.

Method in Effect

Peter Duffie
Read more about Method in Effect by Peter Duffie... A card is selected then lost in the deck. You take a pen-knife and thrust it into the outer end of the deck. When you pull the knife out again, a card is seen to be impaled on the blade. Alas, this is the wrong card! However, you ask the spectator to pull the card off the knife. When he does, he finds that it has changed into his card. Any deck can be used, and the effect performed at any time.

THE 5 POINT 5 TRICK: The classic gag "The 31/2 of Clubs" (why always Clubs?) always seems to go down well, despite the fact that the magical depth is shallow, because once the gag has registered it is not impossible for the method to be reconstructed by almost any lay person, as the properties of dice are well known today. OK, it 's only a gag, but we are also a magicians aren't we? Here is the version I constructed which is, I think, methodically sound, and the finish, though different, has the same punch as with the original. The force belongs to Bob Ostin.

A STEBBISH LOCATION: While your back is turned, a spectator rolls two dice to get a random number. He deals that number of cards and notes the card at that position. A second spectator, using the same number, deals further into the deck and he too notes a card. Deck is squared then cut by the spectators. Without looking through the cards, you instantly produce the first...

"I've been doing magic 40 years, and this may be one of my five favorite tricks. Excellent thinking. Hard to top." - Clyde Hayre, US.

A spectator is asked to throw three fair dice (this is an absolute fair throw or even just a mental throw - no force here). From the number fairly thrown you construct a perfect magic square. For a kicker, the cards are put together and the face of a King of Hearts appears.

There is no palming of cards or exchanging of decks or anything like it. You work with 16 cards and 16 cards only without any sleight-of-hand.

You get 16 specially printed cards...
