I just saw this trick at Hank Lee ...
http://www.hanklee.org/xcart/product.php......0&page=2
and also ...
http://www.emagicsupply.com/index.php?ma......ts_id=80

Two decks of cards are displayed. One is large, the other is exactly the same but small.
One of the larger cards is held face down, it's identity unknown.
The participant is instructed to deal cards off of the small deck one at a time, onto the larger card.
They are free to stop at any time, ensuring a random choice.
When they do stop, there is one small card (micro) and one large card (macro).
The small and large cards are slowly and deftly turned over to reveal that they are the same value and suit!

No Forcing - They are free to stop at any card
No Sleight of Hand - The gimmick does the work
100% Self Contained - Packs small plays big
Can be Repeated! - With a different card each time

All cards can be shown to be different. They deal from a deck of 52 ordinary cards. They decide when to stop. ALL cards before and after the one they stopped on can be shown, to prove it was truly a free selection.

That's so funny. I was just talking to Paolo about this very effect. It's very old. It was once called One Chance In Five many, many, many decades ago.

I was telling Paolo that it could be used for a type of ACAAN.

This brings back memories. I have one that I bought in the 60's. In my opinion, there are much better ways of producing the same type of effect.
