Too many. They raise lots of questions, like "Why are you spelling a card?" "What does this have to do with finding my card?" "What are you doing with your life?" This simple (yet impressive) version of the trick I teach here doesn't seek to answer these existential questions. The "joke" about "the *name* of your card" provides a little bit of internal logic -- just enough for a basic magic trick. NOMENCLATURE: I've called this trick "Spellbound" because "a spelling card trick" isn't very catchy. These days, "Spellbound" usually refers to a trick where a silver coin transforms into a copper coin (or vice versa) using a specific technique. However, it's a cool sounding word and it contains the word "spell," so it fit the bill. Luckily, there's a precedent for using this name. A trick (from an unknown creator) published in The Royal Road to Card Magic (1948) that involves spelling to a selected card is also called "Spellbound" (page 181). CREDITS: - The earliest reference to a card trick that involves spelling was published in 1889 in "Tricks With Cards" from an unknown creator. Since then, hundreds of variations have been published in the literature -- far too many to catalogue briefly. - The predecessor and inspiration for many common spelling tricks is "Thought Stealer," published in The Royal Road to Card Magic in 1948 by an unknown creator. A modified version under the same title was published in Card College Volume 1 by Roberto Giobbi, which is where I first encountered this general plot. - The method that places the joker a known number of cards above the selection is called the floating key principle, which I first learned in Simon Aronson's book Simply Simon. However, the use in this trick is slightly different from Simon's use. - The idea of having a "joke" show up, written on the back of a card, is certainly not original to me. It's difficult to track down the first use of it, but it's been around for a long time. - Given the plethora of spelling tricks that have been created, it's entirely possible (probable, even) that someone else has utilized the same combination of principles, techniques, and subtleties discussed in the video.
This reminds me of a similar spelling trick I know! - Take nine cards, and lay them in piles of three. - Have the participant select a pile. - Pick up the pile, and flash them the bottom card. Have them memorize it. - The participant picks a second pile, on top of which you drop the pile they picked. - Drop the 6-card pile on top of the final pile. (The rest of this trick can happen in their hands if you're confident they can do it) - Ask them the name of their card. - Deal cards in a pile to spell the number/face, drop the rest on top. - Deal cards in a pile to spell "of" (2), drop the rest on top. - Deal cards in a pile to spell the suit (with the 's'), drop the rest on top. (Then either:) - Deal four cards. Their card is the next card to be dealt. - Deal five cards. Their card is on top of the pile. (Spell for this step too. If their name is four or five letters long, or has a nickname that long, use their name. Try to use something personal to them. If you have to pick a safe word, I suggest using "MAGIC")
@@FlummoxTheMagnificent It's a math trick. All card numbers have between 3-5 letters, and all suits between 5-8. The way that stacks are dropped results in success no matter what. The card always starts as the 3rd card down. After the first deal (spelling the number), the card is always the 7th card down. After the second deal (spelling "of"), the card is always the 5th card down. After the third deal (spelling the suit), the card remains the 5th card down. So, after spelling "MAGIC" (or any other 5 letter word), their card will always come up. All that matters is the first deal is at least 3 cards, and the third is at least 5. Dealing any additional cards does not change where their card is in the stack, since it has already been dealt. (I did notice I made a mistake in the original comment that I've now corrected)
Thank you for quality and content, Daniel - You are one the best UA-cam magicians I've seen. And now I'm thinking about "translating" the trick to russian, huh
huh. I think this is the first time I've seen a magic trick with an element of math in it. Its a mixture of math and language. Could be a useful teaching tool. Thanks for posting this, Daniel. Been a fan ever since the 10 levels of sleight of hand video.
Nice trick, and well explained. Thanks for sharing. For the excluded cards, you can get to 11 with "The Ace" and it's a club? "Clubs" - so throw in "T-H-E" and leave out "O-F"
Hey my name is Kevin and I would love to do your class I know and have a lot of magic and I have loved it and was amazed as a child and still have some of my old magic from the early 80's but I have always had a not so great presentation specially in front of strangers or bigger crowds. I would like the help you are offering. I've been a widow since 2015 and was in an accident Dec 11, 2017 now I'm disability so money is tight . But I really could use some help with confidence I've really been short in that but thanks for the lesson like I just watched . I really enjoyed it
oh god daniel I thought you were gone from UA-cam, great that you are back! you wanna do some cardfight vanguard sleight of hand? That mght be quite interesting
i was watching your video thinking it was a nice easy trick to learn.. And I just realized although I speak English, I'm french.. I'll have to rethink the whole thing to figure out if it's even possible to make it in french.. Nice one though..
Hey Daniel! Do you have any book recommendations for someone (me) who is starting out on the fundamentals of card magic/sleight of hand? Currently I'm struggling with the Overhand Shuffle as my cards end up very haphazard instead of squared after the shuffle. Thanks!
Hi Daniel. i dont normally like card tricks like this, where we count so many cards to find the chosen card. I have learned several self working card tricks like this, and i recently learned a similar version of this trick before. I like your version the best. Its also one of the better self working card tricks, imo. Thank you sir. I was thinking while you were teaching us the secret, and i want to ask you this. 1) can we NOT USE those 4 certain cards, The 2, 4, 8, and 10, and leave them in our pocket, or put aside, under a table, Etc, and use 4 other cards? This way they cant get chosen . 2) no matter what 4 cards we put in our 11 card stack below the upside down joker, can we cut the deck in two halves and have the spectator choose a half, us using a magicians choice, and us keeping the top half and put the bottom half aside, we use the top half for the spectator to choose a card from, this way the 11 cards from the bottom of the deck cant get chosen and the joker doesnt get exposed. Then they put it face down on the magicians half that they just picked the card from,which is the top half and then we put the original bottom half on top of the chosen card, which is on the original top half? This method is to make the spectator think he has a choice to choose a half to pick from before choosing a card. 3) instead of using #2, where we have the spectator place his card on the top half which is in the magicians hand still, we can put both halves next to each other, and give the spectator another magicians choice of which half to put their card on. This gives the spectator another chance to be a part of the trick, which will make it more amazing when we find their card. If they choose the pile from the bottom half, then we instruct them to put their cardon top of the top half . This idea #3 might be a good idea and work to our advantage, Of course,. But this is also an iffy idea, coz if they choose the bottom half the first time and we use the top half, then it will not look good if they chose the top half the second time to put their card on, and we give them the top half, they could catch on to our force.what do you think? They could be so caught up in the trick that we might get away with our secret force. Lol. Peace Glen
When you cut off the top 1/3rd of the deck, you place the 5 of Spades on top of the cut. You then put the rest of the deck on top of the 5. Since the Joker was 12 cards from the bottom, it is now 12 cards above the 5. Here's a crude visual Deck Joker Ace/2/6/10 of clubs 7 other cards (They hold their card, the 5 of Spades) You cut off 1/3rd of the deck, putting their card on top 5 spades 1/3rd deck on table -------------------------------- Rest of deck (in your hand) Joker Ace/2/6/10 of clubs 7 other cards You place the cards in your hand on top of the table pile, giving you this Rest of deck Joker Ace/2/6/10 of clubs 7 other cards 5 of Spades 1/3rd of deck Though the graphic is crude, I hope you can see that there is 11 cards separating the Joker and Their Card. As long as the trick is followed properly, this will always happen
it does take a litle bit of fast thinking to count the letters correctly. Too bad that in my native language (portuguese) the spelling of the suits and some of the card values are too long. I guess I can make it work, but it will alter the cards to remain below the joker.
So it occurs to me that we have forgotten a major advantage that the magician has over the audience. The magician always knows where the trick is going. So if their card happens to have 13 letters, say like the ace, 2, 6 & 10 of diamonds then simply put the joker on top of the pile to start your count & on the last letter turn the card over. That way you can spell out the ace of spades in full. Personally I will also be removing the 7, 8 & Queen of diamonds as part of my 11 cards as all 3 have 15 letters. [I got the idea of using the joker for the count from an OG Paul Daniels card trick from my childhood which is quite fun & you may enjoy it too. I still do it on occasion & it always raises a smile & a few tuts. You need 10 cards from ace through to 9 of varying suits &.., you guessed it, A JOKER. On the face of the joker you can write cock-up or balls-up or tits-up or any slang term crashing & burning. Maybe crash & burn or EPIC FAIL from the modern vernacular. So arrange the cards in this order - [I have been doing this trick since I was about 12 & I'm 54 now & I have never forgotten this order. LOL] - 3, 5, Ace, 7, 9, 2, Joker, 8, 6, 4. So you spell out the letters of each card, in ascending order & turn over the card on the last letter. *[Important* you put the A & C cards to the bottom of the packet *do not discard or place on the table]* So A-C- & turnover on E & so on. You do ace, 2 & 3 but ask the spectator if they would like to try on 4 & when they do it they get the Joker. So you put the Joker back *on top* & simply do it again which produces the 4. Then say "try again" & maybe remind them to turnover on the last card - [even though they did the 1st time, unless they didn't] - & yes, again the joker is turned over which you again place on top & repeat to produce the 5. You then say the 3rd time's the charm, or 3rd time lucky, or the like as you hand it to them to try again. Again they get the joker & again you repeat the previous. Then say "look, I'll show you again only slowly this time" & do 7 then hand it back to them for 8. [You may need to encourage them by now because they do get a bit exasperated.] So after you produce 8 say "I can see you are getting frustrated but we're down to 2 cards & so you have a 50-50 chance this time & I'm routing for you" & some will refuse to do it, some will cheat to make sure they do it this time & some will complete it like a great sport. Enjoy. 😎
I will try to learn this trick, but in Italian! Per gli italiani: bisogna togliere il 2, 3 e 6 di cuori e fiori, e il 4 di quadri e picche, il resto sono sempre 11 o 12 lettere.
@@DanielRoyMagic this makes me so happy to hear. Your other ten levels videos are mind blowing. As an amateur magician I can follow into a few levels and go "yep... Uh huh okay... Yep.. oh fucking what"
I think im going to try this trick... I bartend and where I work there's times where I can dazzle the patrons... but I think Ill switch it up and have THEM spell it too cause I think the inclusion will be nice!
Great idea! Just be sure to guide them properly in the spelling and have the spelling "plan" figured out in your mind before giving them instructions. In an environment like a bar, having the patron "do the magic" is a great idea.
@@DanielRoyMagic I completely agree, I’m relatively new to magic so the fact you commented let’s me know I’m on the right path lol… I appreciate you commenting 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Hello, and thanks for sharing your knowledge at Magic, this trick is nice, and its a shame i can't do it the same way in Spanish language, thank you anyway, i'll try my best to find a way to do it haha xD
Spanish is tricky here...porque "corazones" y "diamantes" ambos tienen nueve letras, "treboles" tiene ocho, pero "picas" solamente tiene cinco... es dificil. También hay mas variación entre las palabras por los números. Y lo siento, mi español es muy oxidado.
@@DanielRoyMagic i just managed in spanish taking out all 4s, 2s, 5-7-9-Q of diamonds and king of spades, but it should be 12 cards that you need to give away before joker and always reach for 12 or 13. saludos and muchas gracias Daniel, you are great.
I suppose it would be even easier for a rookie like me to bury the Queen, three, Seven and Eight of diamonds along with the four clubs in the group of 11.
Since my mother tongue is not English, I knew it was gonna be a language related exception.. But what an brilliant one. Now I need to find a group of English speakers and befriend them.
are we gonna learn to hold cards in each video ? Cant you have a video on card holding and refer to it in other videos if someone has not watched it. To us who watch all your videos its quite annoying coz its like i have 10 mins that i watch the same thing in each video.
Couldn't you make this work with every card except the Ace of Clubs by saying "Ok, so we are looking for 'A Ten of Clubs' (or six)" and spell out the "a"? 😉
Great video and extremely clear explanation, but why do you have that annoying music in the background? All it does is distract from your narrative. Ah, now I see - you are using it as an example of misdirection. Genius!
I hope you read this Daniel, coming from my viewpoint your a bit too wordy and that isn't helping build the effect. Kind of cut and dried and not very entertaining for an average audience.
@@Liandes well you should listen closer if that's the sound you heard. Hes trying to give advice to one of the best card handlers lol Hes a professional. So I was wondering what is credentials are.
@@jayzenyuhman9095 the thing is, he is probably a great slight of handler, but he is nowhere near the best at creating youtube content. Some people who obviously not a professional magician will find this video too theoretical and wordy,therefore feel bored.

Ahh, a classic. I've also never seen anyone explain a in the hands card spread so thoroughly. 👏

Ace does not work as far as I know

How did you get their card to it’s end position. Did I miss something? Help?!
1ST Real card trick i learned was Spellbound but i use a simple pinky break to locate and control the selection and basically take it from there

where did you get the black hearts and diamonds, red clubs and spades deck that you used in the ten levels of psychology video?
bro deals smoother than windows XP solitaire
I'm that douchbag that takes the whole deck and shuffle it myself when I need to put the card in myself XD

The bit I'm missing is where does the 5 of spades land after its placed back in the deck. Time is 22:20. Is it next to joker card or in the 11 cards.
When you cut off the top 1/3rd of the deck, you place the 5 of Spades on top of the cut.
You then put the rest of the deck on top of the 5. Since the Joker was 12 cards from the bottom, it is now 12 cards above the 5.
Here's a crude visual
Deck
Joker
Ace/2/6/10 of clubs
7 other cards
(They hold their card, the 5 of Spades)
You cut off 1/3rd of the deck, putting their card on top
5 spades
1/3rd deck on table
--------------------------------
Rest of deck (in your hand)
Joker
Ace/2/6/10 of clubs
7 other cards
You place the cards in your hand on top of the table pile, giving you this
Rest of deck
Joker
Ace/2/6/10 of clubs
7 other cards
5 of Spades
1/3rd of deck
Though the graphic is crude, I hope you can see that there is 11 cards separating the Joker and Their Card. As long as the trick is followed properly, this will always happen
it does take a litle bit of fast thinking to count the letters correctly. Too bad that in my native language (portuguese) the spelling of the suits and some of the card values are too long. I guess I can make it work, but it will alter the cards to remain below the joker.
this card trick is exactly my humor xD and its simple, clean and easy to learn. Thx so much Daniel. Going into my repertoire
Simple and clean, huh?
wait but how do you get their card into the 12th spot i think u maybe missed that
So it occurs to me that we have forgotten a major advantage that the magician has over the audience. The magician always knows where the trick is going. So if their card happens to have 13 letters, say like the ace, 2, 6 & 10 of diamonds then simply put the joker on top of the pile to start your count & on the last letter turn the card over. That way you can spell out the ace of spades in full. Personally I will also be removing the 7, 8 & Queen of diamonds as part of my 11 cards as all 3 have 15 letters.

So arrange the cards in this order - [I have been doing this trick since I was about 12 & I'm 54 now & I have never forgotten this order. LOL] - 3, 5, Ace, 7, 9, 2, Joker, 8, 6, 4. So you spell out the letters of each card, in ascending order & turn over the card on the last letter. *[Important* you put the A & C cards to the bottom of the packet *do not discard or place on the table]* So A-C- & turnover on E & so on. You do ace, 2 & 3 but ask the spectator if they would like to try on 4 & when they do it they get the Joker. So you put the Joker back *on top* & simply do it again which produces the 4. Then say "try again" & maybe remind them to turnover on the last card - [even though they did the 1st time, unless they didn't] - & yes, again the joker is turned over which you again place on top & repeat to produce the 5. You then say the 3rd time's the charm, or 3rd time lucky, or the like as you hand it to them to try again. Again they get the joker & again you repeat the previous.

Enjoy. 😎

I think im going to try this trick... I bartend and where I work there's times where I can dazzle the patrons... but I think Ill switch it up and have THEM spell it too cause I think the inclusion will be nice!
Great idea! Just be sure to guide them properly in the spelling and have the spelling "plan" figured out in your mind before giving them instructions. In an environment like a bar, having the patron "do the magic" is a great idea.
@@DanielRoyMagic I completely agree, I’m relatively new to magic so the fact you commented let’s me know I’m on the right path lol… I appreciate you commenting 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Toller Trick! Aber wie mache ich das in deutsch?
Does it work in other languages, like french?
It's 22:15 time, that's what I'm trying to understand
Me holding the deck how i would hold a hawk
i dont understand when you place their card into the deck after cutting a 3rd how are you finding / controlling that card?
Their card will always be the 12th card from the joker since after the cut you control which pile you are dropping on top.
2:30
9:30
The real trick is learning this when the suits have different names in different languages 😅
How many card decks do you have?
way too many lol
Hello, and thanks for sharing your knowledge at Magic, this trick is nice, and its a shame i can't do it the same way in Spanish language, thank you anyway, i'll try my best to find a way to do it haha xD
Spanish is tricky here...porque "corazones" y "diamantes" ambos tienen nueve letras, "treboles" tiene ocho, pero "picas" solamente tiene cinco... es dificil. También hay mas variación entre las palabras por los números. Y lo siento, mi español es muy oxidado.
@@DanielRoyMagic i just managed in spanish taking out all 4s, 2s, 5-7-9-Q of diamonds and king of spades, but it should be 12 cards that you need to give away before joker and always reach for 12 or 13. saludos and muchas gracias Daniel, you are great.
sorry not all2s, you can leave the 2 of diamonds in the deck.
great tutorial with important advice along the journey
Please make a video on basics of magics.Love your content.Thank you.
I thought it was called mechanics grip? And biddle grip?
With the ten letter cards, you could get 12 by counting the two spaces, but it'd seem kind fishy
I suppose it would be even easier for a rookie like me to bury the Queen, three, Seven and Eight of diamonds along with the four clubs in the group of 11.
Damn didn't know Harry Potter knew this kind of magic too
Since my mother tongue is not English, I knew it was gonna be a language related exception.. But what an brilliant one.
Now I need to find a group of English speakers and befriend them.
Great video! May I suggest doing a double lift when counting out the ace, two, six, or ten of clubs?
He is going for a self-working card trick that is sleight free.
@@JugglerLou Thanks for reminding me.
@@thechef6969 I just took a spare deck and worked on an easier way to do this. I’ll record it soon.
@@JugglerLou Sounds good. I would love to see it. Thank you!
same in french please ^^
Far easier to let there be 8 cards below the joker & only have "your card" on the back of the mark card
OR
if ur a slight of hand god, just spell 13 letters and second hand the last 2 lol
just a thought.
Great magic trick, too bad it doesn´t work in my language
are we gonna learn to hold cards in each video ? Cant you have a video on card holding and refer to it in other videos if someone has not watched it. To us who watch all your videos its quite annoying coz its like i have 10 mins that i watch the same thing in each video.
Couldn't you make this work with every card except the Ace of Clubs by saying "Ok, so we are looking for 'A Ten of Clubs' (or six)" and spell out the "a"? 😉
Great video and extremely clear explanation, but why do you have that annoying music in the background? All it does is distract from your narrative.
Ah, now I see - you are using it as an example of misdirection. Genius!
It won't work in my language
first!
does not work in other languages because of obvious reasons though :( ^^
I always thought Spellbound was a coin trick.
it is! but that name has also been used for spelling tricks. see the description for more info
This is the first trick I converted to hands-free, where the spectator does all the handling.
(:
Oh my God! Just shoot me! Please have someone edit your script’ explanation!
Though luck if you're not in an english speaking country.
I knew how to do this... before you explained it 😐
Algún español que no pueda hacerlo xd
Ace o' farts
I feel like this was too simplified, you could of skipped some parts like how to fan out a deck and how to hold it but other than that good stuff
L other languages
What the f*** :,)
I hope that helps...
You're using the same conversation with your audience as you do in the tutorial, a bit much I believe...
I hope you read this Daniel, coming from my viewpoint your a bit too wordy and that isn't helping build the effect. Kind of cut and dried and not very entertaining for an average audience.
Are you a professional magician?
@@jayzenyuhman9095 you sounds like everyone have to be a professional magician to enjoy Daniel's content.
@@Liandes well you should listen closer if that's the sound you heard. Hes trying to give advice to one of the best card handlers lol Hes a professional. So I was wondering what is credentials are.
@@jayzenyuhman9095 the thing is, he is probably a great slight of handler, but he is nowhere near the best at creating youtube content. Some people who obviously not a professional magician will find this video too theoretical and wordy,therefore feel bored.
@@jayzenyuhman9095 but not for me, i know some basic tricks and I enjoyed every second of this video.
Okay I think Dai Vernon is is rolling in his grave about now...
Why?
