Hello all,
I have been racking my brain trying to figure out where I learned a very beginner 4-Ace trick where, with a simple set-up, the cards are handed to the spectator. they deal two piles of whatever size, then they deal those two piles into two new piles each. When the top card of each pile is revealed, they are shown to be the four Aces. Does anyone know the name/provenance of this trick? Best, jsbosco |

I do not have the book handy, but it does sound like something that was in Magic With Cards by Garcia and Schindler.

You are right Wravyn. It is in Magic With Cards by Garcia and Schindler, page 46, "Let's Find the Aces."

The spectator is handed the deck and asked to deal out two piles and stop when they would like. Then they take up those two piles one at a time and deal them both all the way out so that they have 4 piles. When the top card of each pile is revealed, there are the 4 aces. Any leads? |
