An impressive (self-working) effect in which the illusionist will manage to find an incredible series of twin pairs starting from a card chosen by the spectator.
You will learn an astonishing automatic card magic effect based on the theme of couples and, in particular, twin pairs, consisting of any card and the one other card that shares both its color and its value.
A spectator receives the deck shuffled by the magician, cuts it at any point and, once completed, begins to turn the cards over from the top until they find the first card of even value (therefore composed of the sum of the values of a pair of cards of the same type).
At that point, stack as many cards as represented by that same value face up on the table. After noting the value of the last card turned over, once again stack the same number of cards next to it, but this time leaving the corresponding card face down at the top of the second pile. Then he hands the cards back to the illusionist, who magically arranges the next three piles of cards so that the top card of each pile matches as twin card the ones of each of the piles previously formed by the spectator, including that which had yet to be turned over. But that's not all. There will still be about ten cards left in the deck, and when the spectator is asked to freely choose a lower number, the magician will find another pair of twins!
Not only that, but until the end of the deck, it will still produce pairs of twin cards!
Strengths:
- Thanks to the secret stack, the result is guaranteed to be self-working.
- No manipulation of the deck is necessary.
- Two different, equally simple ways of building the stack are illustrated.
