If you are looking for a couple of really easy magic tricks to learn that you can try on your friends then the two following ones will be perfect for you. Some people are unable to master anything to complicated and so coming up with a couple of easy options is a great idea. Of course, you'll need to do a bit of practice first - watching yourself perform in front of a mirror is a good way - but then you'll be ready for show time!
The two tricks here are both very simple to execute and will simply use a little bit of misdirection in order to make sure that your audience is not focusing on the little tricks you are pulling off. So don't look the other way while I'm showing you what to do.
The first trick goes as follows. Grab yourself a deck of cards and get someone to pick out any card from the deck. When they are trying to remember it very sneakily turn the bottom card over and then flip the whole deck.
Get them to pop the card back in, anywhere they like and look away. Now say that you will find the card and put them behind you back, turn the top card back around and hand them back. The card will be the one that is flipped when they look through the deck.
Next try this easy trick. Shuffle up the cards once of twice. Then have a sneaky look at the bottom card without them seeing you. Now drop the cards from the bottom onto the ground and ask someone to say stop once you have reached the tenth or so card.
Keep an eye on the bottom card that you memorised and then pile the cards that you dropped with the bottom one to the top. Now show them this top card but not yourself and have them reshuffle the pack without you looking. All you have to do now is baffle them by finding their card using magic. - 31879
