Years ago my uncle showed me a trick and wouldnt explain how it worked
I selcted a card and then he shuffled the deck. Then he had me deal the cards out
In various piles that overlapped, like a faro, only he had me stack them. Cant remember
How many cards. He picked the stack up and held them interlocked. He started tapping the
Cards on the table. Then he would turn the deck on the opposite end and
Tap some more. Each time he flipped the deck, less cards eould be there after the
Tapping. At the end of this sort of long procedure, my selected card wS the last card. Does this ring
Any bells. I just asked him and he doesn't remember the effect or even doing it. Anyone know this one???
