The magician passes you two cards and asks you to return them to the deck he is holding anywhere you like. They can be together or apart. As you are about to place then he says, ‘I hope you remembered them?’. You take another quick look and place them in the deck. He then taps the deck on the table to make all the edges neat, telling you it disguises the location of your two cards. He then riffles the deck. Places his thumb and second finger on the top and the bottom of the deck whilst holding the deck firmly in his other hand and then snaps your two cards straight out of the deck!
The solution to this trick is deception. Notice from the pictures the first two cards you start with are not the two cards you finish with. Almost everyone will not notice this especially if you don’t give them long to remember them and secondly spend a few moments riffling the deck and tapping it on the table etc! Start with the final cards on the top and bottom of the deck and then hand the opposite cards to your volunteer to start the trick. Then just pull the top and bottom cards off with the snap move. It happens fast and looks great. It is recommend to use the 7 of spades and 8 of clubs along with the 7 of clubs and 8 of spades.
