How To Immediately And Certainly Make The Ace Of Diamonds Vanish Completely

If you like simple to learn and pretty impressive card tricks, then you’ve come to the right place. You’ll be able to perform this trick after only a few minutes practice. It does require a little bit of set up before you face your audience, so you can only do this trick once. This is popular with kids, as it doesn’t require any high level sleight of hand skills.

This is how the stunt will look to your bewildered audience. You take three Aces: Spades, Clubs, and Diamonds. You hold them out, opening them to the audience. Then you set them on top of the deck, and shuffle and cut the deck several times, making sure that they have been consistently dispersed.

You then ask a helper to come up and search for the Ace of Diamonds. They will look in vain, as they won’t be able to find it. If you like, you can get an additional audience member to come up and search, but they too will be unproductive. Then you pull the Ace of Diamonds out of your shirt pocket. (Or your back pocket, or shoe, or wherever.)

Here’s how to set the trick up. First uncover all the Aces. Then put the Ace of Diamonds in your pocket (or shoe or wherever) beforehand. Then rest the other Aces on top of the deck. When you pull the three Aces off the top, and fan them out, make sure to hold the Ace of Hearts in the interior. If you locate both other cards on either side of the Ace of Hearts, it will look like the Ace of Diamonds to the audience.

How you word this is important. If you state beforehand that you are going to make the Ace of Diamonds disappear, they will be looking much more strongly. But if you just start of by relating what you are doing, and then name the three cards (Ace of Clubs, Spades, and Diamonds) they will likely believe you, and not look too closely at the three cards.

One way that can very help is as you are shuffling and cutting the deck, is to tell some long winded story about how diamonds have some kind of paranormal power, and in the old days when they were choosing the shapes for cards, they nearly didn’t choose diamonds because people were always stealing them, or they were always disappearing or something. That way, when they start thinking about the Ace of Diamonds, it will already be secreted someplace in the deck, or so they think. Have fun with this trick.
