I find these “self working” tricks really interesting, the whole layout is really cool. I like the secret reversing the order of cards by counting them out too, no one suspects that!
Awsome. I do find these tricks without sleight of hand much easier. As a variation for this trick I simply add together the first two cards' values and announce the total as a prediction. This avoids getting two awkward cards at the start which need to be switched around before beginning. If they are '5' and '8', for instance, the prediction is '13'. Or I add the first four cards together for an even more stunning result, and reveal the final four cards, instead of just two. If the predicted total can also be used when dealing the two card piles - make it 13 cards to each pile for example - this is even more intriguing. I find this extended version even more unbelievable. Keep 'em coming.
For the awkward switching, if the first two cards are the same value, then I'm doing the matching two as predictions (so if there are two 7s, then I'll predict the other two 7s). If they are the same suit, then I'll do something similar (like if there's a 3 and 7 of clubs, then I'll predict the 3 and 7 of spades or add them together and do the 10 of clubs). If they are close together such as 3 and 4 of clubs, then I might do the Ace and 2 of clubs or 5 and 6 etc. I like your method of doing something with four or more cards as well. By varying the prediction method or number of cards involved it changes up the trick a bit each time.
Hey.... I've been using your tricks in my routine for like a year... I always get amazing reactions...thank you for the amazing trick you taught me....❤️
This is a cool trick, for letting the spectator pick a card to identify suit and number you can do it without peaking. Remember the top card and then make note of what pile they deal the last card on when splitting into two piles. Just track it through the rest of the maneuvers and you’ll know which is on top and bottom by the time your down to two cards. Then the spectator can do the whole thing without you ever touching the cards after the start.
Man, i'm doing a magic show thing in my school for ALL of secondary and primary, and i've gotten a bunch of amazing magic tricks to perform from you. Thanks alot really helped! (it's on 15th of May) WIsh me luck!!
Your site is always my go to when looking for a new trick to add to my routine! Another great self working trick that has gotten great reactions and will be staying in my arsenal for a long time!
Thanks for the great trick MLT! I think I have a way around the peeking. You have to remember which side you left your last card after you first split the cards in 2 piles (it’ll always be the’number’). It doesn’t matter what amount you had(odd or even) then you won’t have to peek. That’ll always be your ‘number’ if you follow MLT’s method (first card is the number and second the suit. Tried it couple times, seems to work for me. Let me know what you guys think though!
Pretty sure I learned this basic effect from this channel long ago, but it was much quicker and simpler. I patter it as making the spectator do a trick for ME. Them thinking THEY divined my chosen card just blows their minds and delights them. We love our MLT - to many of us, he's our Yoda, hehe.
@MLT Magic Tricks Srsly bro, tutorial vids of yours (mostly) and AMCT over the last few years have been instrumental in bringing me from a baby card guy with one good, smooth trick and a riffle-force to a guy who isn't afraid to bust out a couple random tricks for anyone anytime anywhere. I now know about 8 tricks I can do pretty much blindfolded and enough sleights and controls I've learned from you guys to even create my own little tricks. Thank you, man 😌👍
Thank you so much for this! I got into magic a couple months ago and have mastered 3 tricks so far. You keep me hungry to learn and master more tricks :D I've been struggling with pinky breaks and double card flip but other than that the no set ups are great for someone like me!
Bro I've learned so much over the years from this channel. MLT is THE Source for hopeful card sleightists, as is AMCT. Don't worry - you'll get the pinky break and DL down - just takes practice. The delighted and disbelieving responses you get from your spectators makes it all worth while. Also, be sure to work on your controls while sitting doing nothing - false shuffles and cuts, passes and of course DL's and breaks. Sure I speak for us all when I say much love and encouragement headed your way. 👌😉👍
If you're afraid to peek at the end, you can say before revealing the last two cards "The card with the higher value will represent the value, and the card with the lower value, the suit."
This is an awesome trick that takes little effort and really wows people, even after they've seen it a number of times. The only issue I have when presenting it is if the two first cards are wrong, i.e. two of the same suit or two of the same value. Does anyone have an elegant way of getting around that? What I do is to say "the cards aren't very well shuffled, let me give it a quick cut. But sometimes that cut will yield the same result and I'll have to do it again, which looks forced. Comments welcome!
Yes, if this occurs, change the trick to still use the same 2 top cards as follows. Make a 2 card prediction instead. This can go a few ways. Say the first 2 cards are both clubs (say 5 and 8). Find the 5 and 8 of hearts and pull them as your prediction. In this case your predictions are the opposite color. Same if they are the same value (for ex 8c 8d), make a 2 card prediction that is the other 2 8s. You could even do the sum and go back to a 1 card prediction. Say 4c, 6c ... make your prediction the 10c (which is the sum). I think reshuffling looks too suspicious. plus once you reshuffle you could end up with the same condition and have to reshuffle again. Now really suspicious.
No lie, I had a deck of cards and was following along during the "performance" and the card I picked as my prediction was the 7 of diamonds. Funny how that can happen.
I love this self working trick MLT! I love how you upload simple tricks but you make them so much better for us so the ending is better! I will definitely perform this and keep this in my repertoire! Congrats on 450K! #Roadto500K!
I played along with the preformance and reavealed an ace of spades. The cards were ace of diamonds and a 2 of spades. I was totally mind blown, but it was pure coincidense. That i realised after the tutorial😶
That bit where you count the back to the top is very similar to my version of acaan i say so you did 12 cards lets just check it was right meaning it is on the top
Nice trick, but I have an interesting suggestion: have you ever tried it with the prediction card being face up? There isn't actually any reason it can't be shown earlier, and that would prove you didn't switch it with another card. Obviously some tricks need to have the prediction sealed, but in this case, it isn't actually necessary. Maybe it provides dramatic effect, but at the cost of being able to prove that you really did make the prediction at the beginning.
Why do you say that? I see plenty of reasons why it shouldn't be shown earlier. For starters, how could he possibly have changed the prediction card? He couldn't, he never touches it. So right off the bat, showing the prediction provides only negative results and takes away from the illusion. Most importantly however is what he's talking about at 9:36 It would look terrible if one is already looking at what the prediction card is, while the magician is "deciding" whether your choice of "suit or value" should reference the top or bottom card. No?
@@MMAFightMagazine I disagree. I mean, we already know the magician saw the prediction card, so revealing it doesn't give him any information he doesn't already have, it only gives the spectator more information. There are many ways to switch a prediction card, even if it stays in plain sight the whole time.. See "Mexican Turnover" for a classic example. For the magicians choice bit, you could have the 2 cards face down on the table, as long as you can remember which is which, and have him turn it over without looking.
We can’t see your hands at the beginning of the performance, are you looking at the cards when choosing your prediction card, with the spectators knowledge that you’re doing so?

The top card will be on bottom by the end every time right?

daaaaaammmmmmmmmeeee bro its sooo sick
I love you guys chance ❤️👍❤️
bro I tried one of yr tricks and my parents were SHOCKED thx so much
Super . Thank you
a reworking of the old 'dream card' or 'untouched' trick, saw daryl doing it 15 years ago.
IMO, the reworking piles on more procedural (unjustified) steps; daryl's original version (untouched) is cleaner,
Hi I love your tricks and I’m starting to do a couple as well
You make the card tricks to learn complicated
This is really cool
I played along with the preformance and reavealed an ace of spades. The cards were ace of diamonds and a 2 of spades. I was totally mind blown, but it was pure coincidense. That i realised after the tutorial😶
but how can we pick out the prediction card by facing it toward us...wouldnt the spectator object?? m soo confused rn lol
Thank u so muchhhhhh
That's a nice Trick!
Glad you like it!
amazing
AAAMMMAAZZINGGGG
Hey, where do you get those playing cards from?
thanks sir
Awesome

@@joshuamusikantow2552 Another way to keep it "honest" is to have the spectator put the card in his pocket. No ability to switch.
very neat... thanks...
Thanks for watching!
NICE!!!
Thanks!
I like it that "no setup" trick needs a setup at the beginning of the trick hahah
Holy shit this trick was insane! Glad it's so simple as well!
Thanks for making me famous in the family
I'm confused. Do you look at the top cards and find your prediction card in view of the spectator? Is that why you call it a "No Setup" trick?
the hardest part in my opinion is taking a peek at the bottom card without your audience noticing
Good!
Thanks!
We can’t see your hands at the beginning of the performance, are you looking at the cards when choosing your prediction card, with the spectators knowledge that you’re doing so?
what if its an odd number?
I thought about it but the trick will still work
Odd + odd = even
Even + even = even
What if they wanted the 10 of hearts to be the suit or the ace of cubs to be the value
What’s the deck called?
Imagine being a dude just messing around with cards and you accidentally made up a self working card trick… you’ll be like “am I trippin”
You have rizz you really fizzed me
Hmm close, my first go was almost right. The Two cards were 9 and spades but the prediction card was 9of clubs
7:14 so what if there isnt seven cards in the second pile?
Nevermind 😅 I was doing it wrong... This trick works perfectly.
I did it withought the tutorial
WAIT A SECOND WHAT, MY LAST 2 CArRDS WERE A 4 of diamonds and my other card WAS A seven OF Spadded
When you don’t know how it works you feel amazed but when you figure it out every time someone does it it feels soooooo boring
My prediction card was the same, what are the odds
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
O mh god
5:37 im not so sure about that
I like most of yer tricks but this was hard to follow maybe because I couldn't see what you where doing right at the beginning of the video
John 15:10
When you face reveal?😂
90?
Hello
That force is way too elaborate
Kling Junction
Please adopt me
Where
That is a set up
I'm totally confused, you spread the cards out face up and picked the card face up so you and spectator know what the card is
He did that only for the tutorial. In the actual trick he didn't reveal the prediction card.
that's a lot of setup for a trick that has no setup
Bro improve your voice it is too low
Hi
