Magic Card Tricks Anyone Can Perform - Quick Find

Magic card tricks are fun to perform and most are pretty easy to do with just a little preparation beforehand. Do a little practicing and you will have tricks that will amaze your audience. It is so fun dazzling your friends and card tricks are even easy for children to perform. 'Quick Find' is what this trick is called and it is very popular.

Preparation:

Four cards need to be removed from the deck of cards prior to commencing the trick. A standard deck is needed for this trick, which is a deck with 52 cards. Remove the red nines and the red sixes. The six of hearts and six of diamonds and the nine of hearts and nine of diamonds are the removed cards. Put the nine of diamonds on the top of the deck and put the six of hearts right under the deck at the bottom. Face the cards down and make sure they stay like that. Leave the nine of hearts and the six of diamonds out.

For the trick to start:

Let the audience see the nine of hearts and six of diamonds by laying them facing up on the table, keep the deck in your left hand. Now, hold out the deck of cards and ask someone from your audience to place both the nine of hearts and the six of diamonds into the deck anywhere they would like. They will shove the cards into the deck.

The conclusion:

{Holding the deck of cards in your left hand {or the right depending on which is more comfortable} , squeeze the top card and the bottom card together and toss the deck into your other hand.~Now with grace hold the deck in which ever hand is the most comfortable to you, put the deck into your other hand while squashing the top and bottom card together.~The deck will be moved from one hand to the other so begin with it in the most comfortable hand for you and with discretion as the deck moves to your other hand squish the top and bottom card together.} You can now show the cards because you have the top and bottom cards with you.

Okay, so these are not the original cards that the audience member shoved into the deck but the nine and six of hearts looks so much like the nine and six of diamonds that the audience seldom notices the difference. To succeed in pulling off the 'Quick Find' trick you will need to act quick and gracefully.

How to do the 'Quick Find' trick another way:

This version is basically identical to the last one except for one thing. Rather than use the similar colored cards from the same deck in this version you will take an identical deck and steal the exact same cards putting them in the deck in your hand. Both cards will be faced down and one of them will be on the top of the deck and the other on the bottom, just like before.

Two random cards of any suit and number can be used for this trick. Cards you could take are the six of clubs and nine of diamonds. Before placing these two cards like before on the deck in your hand, show the audience what cards they are. The cards have to be put from the table back into the deck randomly by the audience. You might fan the deck out for them to place the cards and push them into the deck. The face of the cards cannot be seen. Amazingly the audience will end up with exactly the cards they chose after you have squeezed the deck and gotten the top and bottom cards.
