Doing tricks with cards is the desire of any adult or child who has watched the work of a magician on the street or in the circus. At first, the tricks seem like magic, and after revealing the secret, you realize that sleight of hand is the main thing!
Without long training, there is nothing to try to show tricks. Hand and finger movements should be quick and dexterous.
Here are some ways to do card tricks correctly that you can master at home and amaze your friends with them.
How to do simple card tricks?
The first trick is guessing the spectator's card.
The viewer chooses a card from the deck, remembers it and puts it back, and the magician, after some manipulations with the deck, finds it. The secret of focus - in the key card, which is located next to the spectator's card, the magician spies at the moment when the spectator puts his card, speckled up, back into the middle of the removed deck.
The deck is defiantly shuffled or given to be removed by the audience, after which the magician looks through the shirts in search of the key card, conceived by the viewer.
The second trick is the emergence of the card from thin air
It requires significantly more dexterity than the previous one. The magician first shows the audience an empty palm - a short wave and a card in his hand!
The secret of focus in finger training: between the index and middle fingers, as well as between the little and ring fingers, the corners of the smaller edge of the card are clamped so that they are not visible when the palm is extended.
The palm is shown to the audience so that the clamped card is not visible.
Then, with a quick movement, four fingers bend towards the palm, and the thumb fixes the card on top. Then the fingers are straightened, the card remains in the palm of your hand.
You can also do the reverse focus - the disappearance of the map, but for this you need to train even more.
However, any trick, regardless of the devices used, requires constant and long-term training, bringing the movements to automatism.
