Pause every now and then to make it look like you are thinking.
Now deal the cards one after the other.
To throw in some drama you must carefully shuffle the pack without misplacing the card that you glances.
So make sure to take a quick glance and put it back on the pile together.
Get them to split the deck and place the card face down on top of the pile.
Shuffle an entire deck of cards and ask a spectator to pick a card.
Emphasise that the cards are jumbled and then unveil the big “reveal”.
Pause after the spectator completes all the steps.
Once the spectator is done with dealing the top card in the “aces” pile ask them to turn the top card of each pile.
One ace will remain on the original “ace” pile.
When the spectator mixes the cards in this pile in the next step, the top three cards will move to the bottom and three of the aces will be dealt with the top of the other piles.
The pile with the aces has three random cards on the top followed by the four aces.
The three piles ( non-ace ones) have a mix of random cards.
Repeat the process with the third non-ace pile too.
From a second non-ace pile, repeat this process of moving the top three cards to the bottom and dealing a single card to each of the other piles.
Then ask the spectator to deal one card from the top of the pile in his hand to each of the other three piles.
Ask him to take three cards from the top and place them at the bottom.
Point to one of the piles without the aces and ask the spectator to pick up and hold the pile.
Make sure you see where the last pile with the aces is kept.
Get the spectator to divide the cards into four separate pile.
The deck will be pointing face down and the spectator will not know that the aces are on top of the pack.
Place the four aces on top of the pack.
Once you have seen, throw some drama in with some intuitive expressions and hold the card up for the audience.
Pick up the pile and start looking through them.
Get them to shuffle the cards in the second pile.
Ask your spectator to memorise the card and place it back into the other pile.
Get them to place it on the table face down and choose a card from the pile they shuffle.
Ask a spectator to choose one of the piles and shuffle the cards in them.
Place the split piles into a pre-arranged pattern with their face down on the table.
If you want to do it in front of the audience, make sure you know where the piles split.
You need to do this before your audience arrives.
For eg: hearts and spades into one pile and diamonds and clubs into the next pile.
This trick is done by splitting the deck of cards into piles of suits.
