“Shuffled” is a breath of fresh air in a world of impractical and overcomplicated Card At Any Number solutions. Jos Denys offers a clever routine that we believe will fool everyone. The method allows you to remain practically hands off at all times, creating a test-conditions miracle. It’s easy to do, extremely powerful, and something you can learn in minutes.
In effect, two envelopes are placed on the table. A spectator is invited to fairly shuffle and examine an ungimmicked deck. You then remove the two predictions from the envelopes. One envelope contains a playing card and the second contains a number. When the spectator counts down to this number, she finds the predicted card. There’s no sleight of hand or open displacements: the card really is at the number the spectator shuffled it to.
