Here's a great up close magic trick that doesn't require any complicated tricks or gadgets or gimmicks. You don't have to prepare anything, and it only requires a regular deck of cards. You don't even need to know how to shuffle to do this trick. It's based on pure mathematics, which means that it will work regardless who does it. Of course, the more you talk this up while you do it, the more entertaining it will be. You'll easily be able to impress anybody with this simple trick.
Here's how the ploy looks like to your soon so be awestruck audience. You tell them that you have just learned some authoritative skills of psychic projection. You can position thoughts clandestinely in their mind. Of course, they don't trust you, and they ask for a exhibition, to which you luckily oblige.
You pull out a regular deck of cards, and open up the cards so that only you can see the cards. You spend a significant amount of psychic energy looking at the cards, and looking at your companion. Then you put the cards back into a regular stack, and tell the person to decide on any two cards, without naming the suit. Like ace, and queen, or ten and three, for example.
Once they select their two cards, you search through the deck, and show them that the two cards they chose are right next to each other. They will be surprised, and likely ask you to do this trick again. You go through the motions of looking at the cards, and projecting the numbers into their heads. Once again they choose two cards, and once again you show them their two cards are right next to each other in the deck.
The rationale this always works is due to utter mathematical probability. Since they aren't naming the suit of the card, and only the number, there is about a ninety percent likelihood that any two cards they pick will be next to each other, since when they choose two cards, their really choosing eight (two cards of four suits each). And just sheer mathematics, the likelihood of any two of any eight cards in a deck being next to each other is about ninety percent.
Of course, the more you chat this trick up, the better. The more you pretend to project thoughts into their mind, and go through the motions of doing heartrending psychic projection the better. If you want you can make a friendly wager with them that you can accurately "project" the cards into to their head before the trick. Have fun with this. - 31879
