Instructions:
Allow the card to be placed freely in the middle
of the deck. (Note: For the purpose of this
demostration, the chosen card, 2 of Hearts, will
be shown face up.)
|
|
Upon closing the deck, placed the left hand pinky
in between the top (b) and bottom (a) packet.
|
|
Square up the deck, with the pinky still
positiioned in between the packets. Hold the deck
in a 45 degrees sideway-up position and close up
the gap between the 2 packets. Now, the gap can
only be seem from the top, so avoid letting the
audience see from your view.
|
|
Using the left hand, fore, middle, ring and pinky
(which is used in between the packets) drag the
top packet (b) off from the deck, in an opening
manner...
|
|
...At the same time, right hand flips the bottom
packet (a), using middle finger and left hand
thumb as pivot. This is also used as a 'cover-up'
for packet (b) during the switching.
|
|
Drop the packet (b) which is held by the fingers,
into the palm. At the same time, drop packet (a)
on top of it. The time taken for these 3 steps
should be done in a blink of an eye.
|
|
The 'chosen' card will then be transfered to the
top of the deck.
