Three Jack Buddies

~ Three Jack Buddies

Let's talk about the effect of this magic. You will show your spectator three "J" cards and then you put one of the "J" cards on top of the deck, another on the bottom and the last one in the middle of the deck. After that, without any suspicious moves, you open up the top three cards of the deck and that are the three "J" cards. Really cool? Scroll down and learn the trick.

Before you start perform this magic, secretly you have you place all four "J" cards on the top of the deck. After that, you place another three other cards (i.e 4,5,6) on top of the four "J" cards. Now you can start the magic by showing three Jacks and make up a story about them being three best buddies and how they couldn't stand being apart.

Continue the story on how one day they were lost in the desert and the best way to seek help was to go in different directions. The first one went to the bottom of the deck to find his friends. The second one went to the middle of the deck and the last one remain at the top because he thought that they will go back to where they were lost.

Now, confirm with the spectator that he is happy that the jacks are well separated, then get him to cut the pack ensuring that the bottom half of the pack is put on top of the other half.

(This will bring the top and bottom Jacks together with the previously placed Jack)

The cards are then turned face up from the top off the pack eventually turning over three Jacks together near the center to the spectators amazement.

Now, conclude your story that in the end, they found each other and they lived happy ever after.
