Presto Card Trick
Difficulty Level - Easy.
How the trick appears:
Reveal a chosen card by using the magic word "presto".
How the trick works:
1. Get an audience member to shuffle a full deck (52 cards) into 2 even piles.
2. Have them choose one of the piles and remember the bottom card. Tell them to show the bottom card to the audience. Ask them to place the pile containing the bottom card on top of the other pile.
3. Then ask the participant to deal the deck into four even piles from left to right.
4. Pick up each pile, one at a time, fanning them out and ask the volunteer if their card is in that pile.
5. Put the deck back together with the pile containing their card placed on top of the other piles.
6. Give the deck to the back to the participant and have them deal the cards, one at a time face down on the table, spelling out the word "P-R-E-S-T-O"(one card per letter). Have them turn the next card over, revealing their chosen card.
