52 To 1 by Dani Daortiz (Borrowed Deck Project Chapter 4) (English and Spanish)

The ability to take a borrowed deck and perform true miracles is one of Dani DaOrtiz’s most powerful weapons. His card work is legendary, and now he is sharing some of his most closely guarded routines with you in The Borrowed Deck Project. A year-long course featuring incredible routines, concepts, theories, and philosophies that allow you to take any deck of cards presented to you and perform real magic. Chapter four is an impossible discovery of a thought of card from a deck that has been shuffled face up into face down. A true miracle!

Here’s what happens:

1. A deck is borrowed and shuffled by an audience member face up into face down. A real chaotic mess!
2. A photo of the messy cards scattered across the table is taken, and the deck is further mixed by another audience member.
3. The spectator looks at the photo and thinks of one of the cards they can see.
4. The deck is separated into the face-up and face-down groups.
5. The face-down cards are given to a spectator who removes any of the cards they want down to a single card. Impossibly, the final card is the exact one the spectator is thinking of.

52 To 1 uses a devilish little secret that allows you to know the exact card a spectator is thinking of in seconds without a peek.

The Borrowed Deck Project is must-watch material for anyone who wants to look like a real pro with cards. The effects are simple in concept but mind-blowing in execution.
