Photoshop?

EDIT: Man I've watched every single thing his fingers do during the trick, and my best guess is photoshop.

Ever had a live magician do that kinda stuff right in front of you?

Its pretty wild. No photoshop here, just magic.

-edit- card tricks that blow your mind are their staple. They practice that stuff for YEARS.

-edit-

there are only 4 cards.....no photoshop or funky business here.

2, 10, 2Ks.

Just magic. Pretty well done as well. Watch his fingers, he's spent 1000s of hours working cards.

Remember the scene from that poker movie "rounders"...."mechanics hands"

It's not photoshop or anything like that. There's a reason he turns every card facedown before he shows you the next one.

When I was in New Orleans a few years back there was a street magician who did stuff like that. Blew my mind.

He did one where he had someone sign a card and put it into the deck. He then pulled an envelope (flat, normal envelope) out of his pocket, tore it open and pulled out her card. Then he shook the envelope and a large restaraunt style salt shaker came out too. My brain popped out of my head and tried to run away because it couldn't understand what was going on.

when he does the 10 of spade trick, you can see that he only takes the card from the top, so he is always showing the bottom card (10S)...this is the only part that i caught tho.

he has fast hands.
if you look at the video at :56 seconds you can see him "not as fast" pull cards from the top of the deck, but show the 10 on the top.
1:04 - He also pulls the "kings" from the bottom - the first two really arent kings,
you have to have very fast hands to do it. I tried and failed. :(.

The hand is quicker than the eye. I sure hate to play poker against someone like that.

It's not that hard to figure out if you've ever done magic.

If your really curious rent or buy "easy to master card miracles" by Michael Ammar

He doesn't have this particular trick but he does "twisting the Aces" which is just as good done with the same moves.

i think hes flipping more than one card...
ie if you have 10 2 k K and you flip the first card, its a 10... but if you grab the top two cards and carefully flip it over making it so that it appears that you are only flipping the top card...then a 2 shows instead of the 10
