Bastard google video is an awesome way of wasting many hours.

The trick is OK, but not exactly mind-blowing. Stacked deck, obviously, the only real trick is to remember the order...

I could not even finish that vid because of how annoying everyone in that room was... the 2 dollar tip guy, and the guy doing the trick were beyond annoying, but who really needs to get punched in the throat is the camera man. WTF did he think he was filming???! he wasnt even watching the trick. Slight of hand wasn't even necessary becasue we didn't get to watch the friggen fetch do his trick

:thumbsup: exactly

As far as the trick, it IS a stacked deck, but when the guy cuts, depending on how far he cuts he drives a certain number of blocks (and keeps them in order) until he gets to a set key card, trigger card, and from that he determines how many bars he needs to go into to get to his spot in the deck.

If he is good at counting out his cards in the block it becomes less important for him to switch around the bars, etc, but you get the point.


Ive done card tricks before, its pretty straight forward in this case, no matter where he cuts, you can just shift everything around. You have to pay attention, im sure if he was drunk he would have fugged it up 🙂

Winner.
 
What if you cut and split one of the four of a kind? He must know how to get it back together using sleight of hand.
