Oscar this is a great mentalist trick, I tried it several times after learning it and it works each time. I also tried with three groups of cards using the pre-arranged of 2-4-6 of hearts and although the same concept works it does not have the same “wow-effect” as when you use the 5 groups. Thanks for sharing great content!!

[@DL-kc8fc]

For 3x3 cards (three viewers) you do not have to determine the identification card. You give any 3 cards to each viewer (the viewer can choose them from the package). Viewers remember one of them and then gradually, preferably from left to right (from your side), viewers put one card on the package that you hold in your hand (you do not need a table). Again (left right) the second card and the last third card from all from left to right - (direction from left to right must be followed). Best moving your hand that holds the package of other cards, so another viewer cannot hand over his card earlier. The viewer has the illusion that he mixed them with other viewers. You make fake mixing, take 3 top cards and create a fan that show the audience (value to the viewers card). The viewer "left" says he sees his card. You already know it's the first card from the left. The other three make a fan and viewers state that they do not see their card. You no longer have to show the last three cards in the fan, because you know that more than 9 cards are not in the game, so the viewer number 2 has the middle card (in the imaginary fan) and the viewer number 3 has the right card. In this trick you don't see cards at all - it's all directed by the viewer. Wow effect for 3x3 cards is great in this design, not with the principle for 5x5.

[@jaimealberto1380]

This effect (with 5 cards) does not work if 1, 2 or 3 spectators choose the card you have as the key card from their pile, so there is a high chance of failing because you cannot prevent them from choosing said key cards)

[@namsmagic]

You're so talent, your teaching so easy to understand

[@jamil5522]

I don't understand how the hell this works but it's amazing

[@oscar]

Hahaha neither do i!

[@gameryl3900]

I kinda understand so I'll explain it briefly: After the cards are gathered at the end, WLOG(Without loss of generality), let's say the first 5 cards are ABCDE. These are the choices presented to a spectator. When the cards are dealt out, you get A B C D E and of course, the other 20 cards. That's why since one of them is your key card, you automatically know its row. Then when they tell you which column it is, you know their card.

[@DETERMINOLOGY]

@@gameryl3900 That's fine and all if the cards wasn't as shuffled. This is one of those tricks thats crazy and even Oscar doesn't know and im sure he's a advanced magician. You can actually fool magicians with this.

[@piaskun79]

In this trick you transpose piles into rows. Each row is representing respective pile. When spectator is pointing a pile with his card, it's like he would tell which card from his pile he has chosen. Simple and yet genius 😃

[@DETERMINOLOGY]

@@piaskun79 that sounds good if you didn’t shuffle

[@TrickshotMasters7]

Works great thank you

[@eyewaves...]

Wow ! This trick is nearly impossible to figure - it is way too clever. You are an outstanding magician, with outstanding tricks and outstanding teaching approach. Thank you showing the procedure. I haven't yet figured why it works...I 'm working on it...

[@billlafay3084]

Oscar. In the performance, after the spec selected a card and mixed their packet, you picked up the individual packets. This can be in any order, ok. But the pack of 25 cards cannot be shuffled again because the key card can be shifted. This will not work. Your tutorial is ok. Just don't shuffle the cards after you pick up the spec's packets. Great job. You are a wonderful tutor.

[@oscar]

[@MrRbritton123]

Oscar, totally agree with everyone else. This blows me away, truly amazing! One question though, the first time you did this trick you shuffled the cards after collecting the 5 piles. What type of shuffle did you do?

[@jonathanleeming6886]

I too have this question. Is it possible to shuffle too much and mess up the trick??

[@sticksandbricks1496]

He is doing a top shuffle. So each time he is only taking the top card and moving it to the bottom of the pile. He does this 5 times so the whole top pile of 5 is now on the bottom and all groups of 5 remain together

[@paulkayne5697]

i watched this trick about a week ago. works very well. i added a different reveal to it by using a second deck (different color) and pulling out the same card as theirs and placing it in front of them to reveal their card when they cant see all the cards spread out. Just a thought . they then will see my pick as a second card from the other deck.

[@BillGraper]

I see how this works. Look at each spectator's cards. All of their cards are in the same position going across. For example, spectator #2 had 5S JS 4H QC AC. Now look at the 5 stacks at the end. Those 5 cards are all in the 4th position. As long as you don't shuffle them before laying them down, and you go straight across, each player's cards will be in the same position in the stacks at the end. Genius!!!

[@jonathanleeming6886]

But he *did* shuffle them, so this theory doesn’t work….?

[@brianhsu_hsu]

@@jonathanleeming6886 You could only shuffle each pile independently like 8:29. But once you start to stack them up like 8:45, you cannot shuffle anymore, otherwise this trick will fail. And if you look 7:53 ~ 8:21 closely and take a note of all cards in each pile, you will notice that is corresponding to each row in 9:29. That's why you need to remember the "key card", it indicates the row of player's card, and the column of that card will be pointed out by spectator.

[@nathanrossen6904]

Yes, in the initial trick, he *did* shuffle them after each stack was combined…. But not in the explanation.

[@Roguetrex]

This is really cool! The only thing I don't understand is, at 2:42, when you shuffle multiple stacks of 5, how does that not throw off the whole stacking? I can see shuffling each stack of 5 individually would be fine, but at 2:42, when you have 3 stacks in your hand and you shuffle, wouldn't that throw off the stack? Wouldn't it be possible for you to then have the 10H, 8H, and 6H all in a row (theoretically)?

[@clarkkentsuperman5911]

Think of it in terms of rows and columns. Each row has all of the cards of each of the original 5 stacks including the identitying heart card . Because each stack was shuffled individually, the chosen card can appear in any column, but it will always appear in the original row. For example, the two of hearts was assigned to the first player. When they chose the fifth column , their chosen card had to be in the same row as their assigned card and thus had to be the 10 of clubs...

[@kyzersoze.musicology]

The trick doesn’t work… I just tired a dozen times and it doesn’t work as the video. Once the prospects pick their cards and then mixes them after, the trick gets ruined… so I’m clueless how he made this work.

[@clarkkentsuperman5911]

@@kyzersoze.musicology if you do it correctly and memorize which card is assigned to each player, it can't not work. : You have five piles each pile is identified by one card that you already know. (The card that you start each pile with) The person is picking one card from the five piles. When you lay the cards out , you are creating columns and rows . Each row represents every card of one of the five piles. Their chosen card stays in the row of the card that you assigned to them and their pile.. When they pick a column that their card is in ,you need only to match it with the row that their assigned card is in. If they pick the fifth column and their assigned the two of hearts, for example, and they have chosen the 8 of spades . The 2'of hearts and 8 of spades are going to be in the same row. They may end up in any column,but will always be in the same row. Let's say that the 2 is in the first column and the 8 is in the fifth. When the person who was assigned the 2 ,picks If the fifth column , you already know which row is theirs, so whichever card is in the fifth column of that row ,has to be theirs..

[@jonathanleeming6886]

@@kyzersoze.musicology make sure that you deal the face-up piles from the top of the deck, and put one card into each pile in order (as opposed to dealing out each pile in its entirety, before moving on to the next). I messed it up a couple times by doing the above, but re-watched the tutorial and then nailed it. So long as you do it *exactly* the way he shows you, you can’t fail… 👍🏻

[@TankEsq]

This broke my brain, I still can't understand why it works 😂

[@oscar]

Yep no idea how this works either!

[@050138]

It's a simple transpose.... All the earlier columns (each column is the pile from which spectator selected his card) when shuffled, collected and stacked in whatever order.... And then spread out as 5 piles again.... Are transposed into rows this time.... So in this new matrix, all you need is a row number and a column number to identify any card.... Column number is given by spectator and row number is given by your predetermined index card.... Simple and ingenious.... The beauty lies in the fact that the simplicity isn't obvious 😉

[@embecmom5863]

@@050138 still dont get it... if you shuffle at the end are you not then risking moving the index card ref card to a wrong column i.e two index cards into one column.

Like 3 cards and then 2 cards.... he makes it look life shuffling You can actually peel off 5 or multiples of 5 cards from the top and place at bottom and still it works because it only affects the order you picked the sets from different spectators and not inter-mixing cards within the different sets of 5 cards Each set of 5 cards still has one of your index card and one spectator selects, it may sometimes be the same card as the index he is selecting.... So this time when you start placing all 25 cards row wise, each set will form a row and using the index card as reference you can name out the card selected if he points out the column which it is in....

Wowwwww🔥🙌🙌😱😱you're the geniuses guy I ever know👏👏 Respect u🙏🔥🙌 One question :can we do in front of 2 or 3 audience

[@Hirnspatz]

Using a deck of 52 cards you can do it with groups from 1 to 7. All you have to do is to match the number of cards in each pile to the number of spectators: 1 spectator: one pile of one card 2 spectators: two piles of two cards 3 spectators: three piles of three cards and so on. The problem is, with one pile of one card it''s trivial. Two piles of two cards are still very obvious. From three cards onward it is possible, but it depends on the audience how easy they can be fooled. Six and seven makes it hard for the magician. With a special deck you can go as high as you want, but the more cards you use the longer the performance will take. And counting hundred piles of hundred cards each make the audience very tired sooner or later. 😜

[@Musikpunx]

Wow, this is really great! It could even be called a "magicians fooler", because there are some moments in the routine which make magicians think: "Ah, I know the principle." But in the end of the day they probably won´t be able to explain or copy it. And it is even quite easy to set up this effect in front of the spectators, if you think a little bit about it. So you could make it seem to be impromptu, which should kill any audience.

[@Movietuff]

If you can do perfect faro shuffle, you can cut flawlessly 26 cards and that way you can also cut 25 cards just as easily too. So I'd do first those shuffles and false cuts, then I would either lift up 25 cards myself or do a riffle force to get 25 cards and give them the top pile by using magician's force because I think it needs to be more random than just saying out loud that there needs to be exactly five rows of five cards. Then I would ask them to deal into five piles themselves to get them involved and after they've dealt the first five cards I tell them that they can even shuffle and keep dealing. I think it might even work better than your way.

[@Dr0p0fahat]

Think of it as a 5 x 5 grid. Each horizontal row is one of their 5-card hands spread out across the entire row, because of the way you deal it out - so right away you should be able to tell which horizontal row belongs to each spectator, based on their key cards. Then all you need to know is which vertical column their card is in to identify their card.
