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.

i have and my face was inches from his hands, couldnt figure it out. i almost punched him because i thought he was satan.

Just follow the suits. Not that difficult.

Wtf does that mean?

Watch each card that he shows including suit. The four kings shown are two of a certain suit twice. The ten and two are always the same suit.

Just responding to Troll Boy jackass.
 
That's a simple trick.

Just double lifts, triple lifts, and elmsley counts. Ain't no thang. Good the terms if you for explanations on what they are.

Edit: That's the hard part about being a magcian. Every trick is based off the same 3-4 principles so once you know how one is done you know how they are all done. The trick is trying to come up with a trick (no pun intended) that fools people who know these few principles. That's when you get into gimmicked decks.
 
Part of the "magic" behind it is also his little speech about what he's doing.
I think that in the viewer's mind, we all blindly accept what he says he is doing.
Now imagine a hypnotist doing magic tricks 😱
