    I just keep signed cards in the deck. I think it gives my deck character :)

    • @masterhroi98
      @masterhroi98 Před 10 lety +12

      i dont get how signing them ruins them, there is 1 of every card, itt just makes it look cooler

      I feel ya :) I do make exceptions, though. For example, bring an old deck to the pub/bar and perform a trick, like this one, to a person of interest. Tell your story well, (I'm sure you know how since you're a badass magician, right? ^^) and get them to write their phone number on the card. For example: "So this is your personal card? Well, to me this is just a regular [queen of hearts]. So, milady, my dear queen of hearts, why don't you make this card your own and write down your number on it? And we can make sure it won't be ambiguous if I'm tricking you." They might react like 'I see what you did there, you smooth bastard! Well, I won't fall for it!', just agree smugly and don't pressure them. If you nail the trick, you can ask again afterwards. If they still say no, they're not interested ;) (but that's fine because you're not interested in every person you meet at a bar either, right?) anyway, you'll both have had a good time during the trick.

    Hardest part of ACR? Getting it down to 4 or 5 phases. I've narrowed mine down to a solid 37.

    • @d_e_a_n
      @d_e_a_n Před 8 lety +28

      +Jassa Singh I was just joking about actually having 37 phases. My ACR changes almost weekly. So frustrating. I do love the idea of each phase becoming more convincing. But the other part of me just wants each phase as impossible as possible.

  • @niveshproag8660
    @niveshproag8660 Před 9 lety +62

    Your double-lift is hard to do but its the best looking double-lift I've seen. Many lifts look way to complex, and you want to lift it the way people usually do when lifting a top card.

    • @dang8848
      @dang8848 Před 7 lety +1

      Nivesh Proag agreed, one of the nicest double lits I'd say. It's taken me a solid week of regular practice but I'd say the effect is worth it, so just stick with it :-)

  • @ArtyFartyCultureParty
    @ArtyFartyCultureParty Před 10 lety +16

    Great routine! ACR is by far, alongside Invisible Deck (or something similar), one of the greatest card tricks of all time. And by the way, the move at 5:00 is called the Vernon Add On used in conjunction with the Allerton Alignment Move (where the middle finger pushes the card forward until the thumb hits the back of the deck) Hope that helps!

  • @dang8848
    @dang8848 Před 7 lety +28

    Incredible routine, thanks again 52kards! Just as a note for anyone else who struggled with this like I did, in the phase 3 where you have to get a pinky break under the bottom two cards, it looks a bit unnatural spreading the cards out (I think) so instead what I do is get a pinky break under JUST the bottom card (much easier than under two cards) then do all the same moves, but if you want to do the whole "it only works when you snap your fingers *gets someone else to snap their fingers*" then just do a double life at the end when someone else snaps their fingers, and a single lift when they snap their fingers thus revealing the right card. Just a note, but awesome tutorial! Just thought I'd share something I struggled with :-)

  • @devinpohl5532
    @devinpohl5532 Před 9 lety +47

    You know, I tend to like having the selected card blank. I do this for the express reason of having them ask if the whole deck is that one card. I say "Wow! You fugured out my trick! Good job!" And then cut the deck at random places, showing them that the entire deck is a duplicate of their card. And then I say "Actually, I just realized something. Thare arent any (their card) in this deck" as I palm their card into my pocket and spread the deck on the table. Puts a good twist on the trick.

    The movement minute 5:00 for the ambitious card was created in 1968 by James Wesley, it is decribed in his book "Enchantments" page 178. He call it "Load-Up Move". Also talk about the history he then showed it to Frank Garcia and Ed Marlo, he gives all the credits to the other similar moves like one Tom Ellis published in 1971, he also says in the book that other similar movements has been published without credits since it is too old to trace.

    hey asad like to add that instead of the double lift to show the spectators card when they snap, perform a color change since its the second card down. You can say the top card isnt yours but let me change it and perform the color change routine..Just thought that i would add that but gotta say i watched alot of your vids and you do a great job with explaining the tricks,keep up the good work!

  • @Bob-di7nh
    @Bob-di7nh Před 9 lety

    At the third move, when you put their card in the half of the packet and that packet in the half of the other packet, it's also very nice to do a fan in your right hand and then put "their card" in the fan and then close the fan and put it on the bottom of the deck.

    Great explanation! I'm really not much into practicing a lot of slight of hand...I just know a couple mathematical "auto-pilot" card tricks that require zero skill. lol But I do enjoy watching vids like this and seeing how more complex tricks are done. Great job!

  • @Andrei-rp3dz
    @Andrei-rp3dz Před 7 lety

    AFAIK You can do a turned over version as well. You wave your hand over with a control to the top and when you switch back angles, it happens before they even know it. And you get them more attentive and more engaged because of the sudden speed that you operated at. And then you build up tension with other phases.

  • @bartvos2342
    @bartvos2342 Před 8 lety +1

    additional idea:
    (approxinately the same level as other phases) get a second deck with a different back from the one you're already using. You need the spectator's card in second position fron the top, with the spectator thinking it is in first position. First, pick up the upper card and put it somewhere in the middle of the deck. Then double lift to show that what they think is the upper card is not their card, and put both cards on top of the second deck (still as though it is one card). Undercut about half the cards fron the second deck. Say something like: "I took the top card and put it in the other deck, so now, when your card jumps to the top of the deck, it should jump to right above the card we just put in that deck." Then, when they snap their fingers, you magically reveal that there's a second card in the second deck, and that it is the spectator's card.

  • @justinbower5839

  • @LokiKeanu
    @LokiKeanu Před 10 lety

    ive always used the popup for the end but i used a different method ive always personally thought was dodgy (though no one has ever said anything) after putting the 2 cards bent on top, i then just take the very top card as i flatten the and say "ill bend it a little bit more" having done this i slide it into the middle, i never liked this due to placing them on top then taking them off again never felt comfortable but i am defiantly going to work on the method you used, much cleaner thank you

    On the trick where you pinky break two cards on the bottom by spreading the deck, I usually say (as their card is on the top) "And now every card in the deck is like your card!" as a joke/excuse to spread the deck.

  • @Jason-ly8sn

    Love the tutorial but I'm having a difficult time figuring out how to do both the forth and fifth parts of the routine I can't seem to find a seemingly natural way of getting the card to second position again... I'm stuck with it turned over top stock and want to transition into the bent card effect. Any ideas sorry kinda a noob only half way through the royal road. Thanks again for all the tutorials your my hero !

  • @8ytan
    @8ytan Před 7 lety

    I do this routine pretty much except I like to finish it by palming their card and making it appear somewhere unexpected, like I've 'messed up'. The most common one I've seen people do is get people focusing hard on the deck then make the card appear hanging out your mouth. You turn over the top card and say 'oh, I think I did it wrong' and they instantly notice that you're mumbling, look up, and their card is hanging out your mouth when they think they just saw it get put into the deck.

  • @PhantomNexon334
    @PhantomNexon334 Před 10 lety

    I usually control the card to the top and leave it there and make the audience select a card and say "what would you think if you managed to select your own deck?" So ask them to select a card,place it on top of the deck,do a double lift and boom.
