I've been showing this trick to the kids in my class for the past year 1/2 since I first learned it from your site! To this day it remains my all-time favorite!!! Thank you👍

[@Jet57hc6zu]

A way I like to get the left pile to the middle is spreading the left pile in between me and the other two piles, and then do the middle pile to the left, right pile to the right. Leaves you with 2 3 1 When you square the cards up the left pile is now in the middle and it looks less suspicious in my opinion.

[@martinscircusskillsworkshops]

The card effect is called Design for Laughter and is based on the Dunbury Delusion (credited to Charlie Miller in Expert Card Technique). It's on the Royal Road to Card DVD set and is performed by Paul Wilson. It's a classic card trick and it suckers in the spectator into thinking you've missed their card, only to reveal it at the end. Can't beat a bit of classic card magic. Btw really like your handling.

[@CardMechanic]

Thanks so much for the in depth detail my man! And thank you for the kind words!

[@davidheilig]

Yeah one version is in the Card College Vol 1 or 2 by Roberto Giobbi too :)

[@Uduplr]

Thank you so much for the education part of the trick. It’s nice to know the history and other publications I can find it in.

[@josephcastricone1187]

Trick is called “ Design for Laughter” it is out of the Royal Road to Card Magic First card trick I ever learned 35 yrs ago.

[@owenearl2505]

*THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE AMAZING TRICK THE TUTORIAL WAS VERY WELL EXPLAINED*

[@redace4821]

Ohhhhhh!! This is a good one. One of a few variation I like to do is first know the spectators card (force or peak) then set up the 4 of a kind of that card (four 10 for example) but alternate the Ten, a random, the Ten, a random, the Ten, a random, the Ten, a random. Show them, do the move. And finally reveal the four Ten. Sometimes they even react like you mess up, you st*pid, or say thing like "you get 3 chances", things just line up even more. But in conclusion, the sliding move is the important thing to note and learn, once you experience with it, try out many variations yourself.

[@stevenhoog1]

What a pleasure it is to see someone who has common sense and does not get lost in so much minutia and does not describe in detail what is obviously simple and does not need so many words describing and you have good technique. I have some stuff to share -- Love your glide method. Fools those who know that old method

[@hbl142]

The variation I learned was where the packet with the spectators card on the bottom is held between the fingers of the spectators closed fist so that most of the cards are sticking out. The magician slaps the cards leaving only one card held by the spectator and it's the chosen card. Very cool effect. It was the first trick I learned, in sleep-away camp when I was like 10 or 11.

[@riccardomedri2977]

Easy and impressive at the same time. Will try it next friday at a birthday party----THX

[@CardMechanic]

Let me know how it goes!

[@hansen704]

Great trick. This move 4-20 with chosen card… did you had some toturial for this ????

[@shikhaarora2385]

I did it and it worked perfectly first try !!

[@Who-mn4or]

Tried it on my roommate as soon as I finished the video it worked exactly as you said it would he grabbed the cards looking for his only to be shocked when it was in my hands

[@josephcastricone1187]

It’s from Royal Road to card magic. The name of the trick is “ Design for Laughter”. First card trick I ever learned.

[@josephquinn7356]

Love this trick! Thanks to you it’s become one of my top three go-to tricks for the kids on the Unit I work at!

[@kyletwebster]

Royal Road to Card Magic - I perform this one all the time. It is a crowdpleaser, indeed. : )

[@twoking10]

ooooo. Good one. I think even I can do that, practice it enough times. I think I will go buy a deck of cards tomorrow. Cool.

[@JirohMagic]

A friend of mine recommend this channel 💯 great content CardMechanic ✅

[@donpudliner1141]

This is a performance and tutorial above all tutorials fantastic trick thanks Card Mechanic

[@stevenhoog1]

I have never seen that alternative glide technique. very open and MUCH better than the old glide move. thanks. another ending that is not a wager type effect but magic is that you show several cards several times eliminating some each time ---use glide to hide thier card. when they are confident that their card is not there Pick up the packet w their card on bottom and secretly turn it face up under the other 3 cards. have them make a fist and insert this packet to be held in their knuckles of 1st and middle finger. slap the cards and ALL FALL except their card starin g at them face up

[@bertobaggins643]

The whole reason i love magic is because it makes others happy. And the very fact that this trick was designed to make MORE LAUGHS, i cannot love more. Definatly my favourite trick ever! thank you for this amazing tutorial!

[@Dr.Salaar]

Nice and cool self working magic trick... My friends are gonna love this trick and me too...❤❤

[@hatefulnateful]

Practicing my controlled shuffle but great trick

[@TheAaronmcmahon11]

Awesome! Thanks for sharing. I'm gonna learn it today. Excited

[@FRIZZYT14]

Thanks for the trick it impressed so many poeple😁

[@RobertBallMagician]

Fantastic performance and beautiful tutorial 👍😊👍😊😊😊👍👍👍👍

[@CardMechanic]

Thanks Robert!

[@ShakaTheFallen]

To do the slide, if it feels too awkward for your fingers to squeeze like that. When you go to grab the bottom card with your other hand, just use that hand to slide the card over and grab the second to bottom card. That’s how I learned to do it.

[@RootinrPootine]

Both harder to do and more obvious to the spectator

[@kupfeli]

This really is an awesome trick! I saw it for the first time on a Streetmagic video, the guy in that video also performed the trick very well and had a nice way of "losing" the selected card in the deck. Btw, instead of holding the deck in the width to slide I like to hold it in the length, that way the slide is easier to hide

[@TheBCProject]

Anyone know what deck this is? It's awesome!

[@marshalbaek5580]

Thanks man - good stuff!

[@nickmuzekari6124]

awesome trick and tutorial, thanks!

[@AlexJAndreu]

Great trick! I have a question. At time 1:26-1:27 in the video, the bottom card of the deck is exposed and it's not the 10 of spades. the Ace of clubs is exposed as the bottom card. Where is the 10 of spades at that point?

[@scaz97619]

I believe he controlled it to the bottom, shuffled it to the top then controlled it to the bottom again. Hence why he said “you know what?” and shuffled again.

[@Uduplr]

Is the book, the Royal Road to Magic, still as good even after all of the publications of it? I see where one copy of it sells for over $150, yet I can buy new ones for less than $10.

[@reesearnett9388]

Like the trick, it didn't fool me though, I watched the performance then preformed the trick right away without watching the tutorial

[@nebilzeki4932]

Thanks

[@RedEyedJedi]

The only problem I can see with this trick is some people will tell you the second you are wrong. So as soon as they see you put their card into the 'not your card' pile, they will say "it's in that pile". 9:12 thats a prime example of commenting before watching the whole video.😂 He didn't really know what to do either. I think the best thing to say when someone says you're wrong in this situation is, "how much would you like to bet that your card is in that pile?" And then end the trick right there by letting them turn the three cards over one at a time and then you show them the card is in the rest of the deck. Don't forget to take your winnings 😂

[@pianist1019]

Isn't really a problem

[@thesohmagician2991]

god level trick op one of my favourites. its called designed for laughter. also... pls make knights playing cards deck review (the one which ur holding right now)

[@nat3sw0rld]

Bro I was just messing around with my (what I thought was) unique deck of cards, then I saw this video and was like “holy shit, that’s the same deck as mine”

[@GriefDN]

by chance i selected the 10 of spades and i was shook

[@bernardmolan2976]

I'd really like to purchase that deck. What's it called?

[@BobbinHeeralal]

I love this guy he is very impressive

[@totojantakhorn5678]

Are you using David Blaine card?

[@Uduplr]

Why move their cut, change what you asked them to do question, to the middle pile, rather than it, being the first, which is where they put it?

[@p.praneshmukundrock8113]

Very nice amazing mind blowing next level

[@jadoncranston1779]

[@dheershah4125]

[@Raichanperunan]

You can do it anytime and anywhere surely no set up😁

[@Gimdxtr]

I've performed a similar version of this trick but instead I do the glide on all three cards and have their card appear on the top of the deck.

[@cat8594]

Very nice trick!

Well done bud! 👍🏻 No Monday quote? 😢

For me It’s 12 years😢

[@dmitrit81]

Damn…!!! 😵‍💫

[@foot_the_zach]

I think I am the only person who got it

[@JimrhexivanM.Ebuenga]

I have so many magic trick learned but I have no spectator

[@Eztoez]

Card forcing is incredibly hard for the beginner to get right. Practice. Practice. Practice.

[@MrMattp1980]

I have no idea why this video showed up on my feed, but it was very cool to get a peek into how to do a magic trick. Playing in to the showmanship side of the trick, I think that I (if I could actually do anything like this) would add the following. At the point where they pick a number between 1 and 10 and you pull their actual card from the deck, I would swap their actual card with the one they think is their card and reveal the now wrong card in your hand. Just when they think that you've really messed up, you turn over the one that is now their card that they now believe to be wrong. I don't know, I know nothing about magic tricks but it made sense in my head :D

[@credo2537]

I just dont get the glide i just cant do it my fingers are shit or smth idk

[@lenardtan7169]

Great

[@AdamSmith-hl9vv]

[@7horse704]

OP

[@manuelgarza1305]

👏👏👏

[@neehartiwari2115]

I have a small change that i made, i hate putting the card on top of the deck, looks sketchy, so i allow the audience to put it in the middle, hmu if u want my trick, i'll give it to u for free

[@LunchboxNinja]

Always be wary when the guy whips out a marked deck from the get go

[@joshajansen9640]

[@6BlackWings]

Sloppy and awkward handling

[@tamirerez2547]

Where do you get the audacity to say this is the most amazing card trick we have to learn?? A simple trick, not at all impressive. Too many steps and too much talking, a bit childish and suitable for a children's party up to the age of 7-8.

[@divyanshsingh1078]

Lie detector trick

[@imaginary-unit]

Don't rush. Take your time with more deliberate precision. You're not at a casual-style level yet.
