Controversy Is Entertainment – Talk Radio On Broadway
This trick has a terrific impact on any audience and will make people wonder if you really are telepathic!
How It Looks To The Audience
The magician gives a spectator three books of paper matches and then turns his back to him. The magician tells the spectator to remove a match from one of the books and then close up the book again. He is not to say which book he has removed the match from. After he has done this, the magician tells him to mix the books together.
How The Trick Is Done
Hold the deck face down in your right hand and deal three piles of five cards on to the table. Ask a spectator to choose one the piles, then have a look at the cards in the pile, and then mentally select and remember one of the cards. He is not to tell you which card it is.
Ask him to place his pile back on the table. Then place spectator’s pile in between the other two piles i.e. in the middle. Hold the pile of fifteen cards face down and deal five cards on to the table, one at a time, in a row, from left to right.
Again working from left to right, deal another card on top of each of the five cards. Then deal a third card on top of each of the five cards.
So, when you turn around, you tell the spectator that you will try to use the power of your mind to find out which book he removed the match from. You then take each book between your thumb and first finger and hold it to your forehead. Your thumb should be on the flap of the matchbook and your first finger should be on the back of the book. As you bring each matchbook up to your forehead, you secretly try pushing the flap down towards the striking surface. The flap that moves slightly will be the one that he has opened.
So, how do you know which card is his? It is simple. The card he is thinking about will always be the middle card of the three! No matter what card he picks, it will always be the middle card. That is the secret!
Knowing this, you can pull out the cards on either side of it first and then pull out the middle card for your big finish.
You should perform this trick at a quick pace, so the spectator does not have any time to work out the card positions in his mind
