    Amazing trick love it! A little tip for you guys if you guys if you dont like a crimp card glue 2 cards together like the jokers or the ad cards you get. The double card works like a charm. I understand it wont work for this trick but other tricks that involve a crimp card. Have fun!

    Brilliant. As you say, Gaffer, it's got to be one of the best mathematical card tricks in existence. A real fooler.

    Excellent!
    The math in the trick works like this:
    Let's assume that the last card of the stack is the 9 of spades.
    Let X be the number called between 52 and 59 (51 could be a problem, since with 9 cards after the 9 of spades, in theory there should be one last face-up card after the 9 of spades).
    In the setup a total of (60-X) cards will be below the 9 of spades.
    The number of cards *above* the 9 of spades = Y = 52 - 1 (the 9 of spades) - (60-X) = (X-9) cards
    For every face-up card of value N dealt, a total of N cards will be dealt: the first face-up card of value N and then (N-1) face-down cards.
    For example, if the first face-up card is a "7", a total of 7 cards will be dealt: the first face-up card of value "7" and then 6 cards face-down. If the second face-up card is a "3", a total of 3 cards will be dealt: the first face-up card of value "3" and then 2 cards face-down. And so on.
    This pattern will go on until the last stack T98765432A9. This time, any of the 10 cards before the 9 of spades will lead to the 9 of spades, and the 9 of spades will always be the last face-up card.
    The sum of the face-up cards will then be = Y + 9 (the 9 of spades) = (X-9) + 9 = X
    It's easier to understand trying with examples, lol

    I've always disliked effects that involve too much dealing, but have recently starting coming around to the idea that if they're presented **as** mathematical oddities - puzzlers, not foolers - that tends to hold people's interest because they want to figure it out. The Galbraith Principle is particularly good for this style of presentation.
    Oh, and Waddingtons are my brand too! They're not the best for delicate sleight-of-hand work, but are durable and widely available. Also as someone who handles cards left-handed, I appreciate the indices being in all four corners. If I fan or spread any other deck, it just looks like I'm holding 52 blank cards. 🤷‍♂️

    Hey Gaffer btw what kind of deck is that again and where to get it? The back design looks perfect for a marking system.

    Gaffer what happens if you turn say an 8 over, you deal 7 on the pile but the next card that is going to be counted is an ace. You put it on the faceup row. What cards do you put where? I love the trick,but I'm stuck. Help please.

    Here’s the math for anyone curious. I think my previous comment was deleted.
    With just the slug and no 9 at the end, the total of the face up cards is just the total number of cards dealt (52).
    Adding the 9 means one less card dealt, but you add 9 to the total: 52-1+9=60.
    Adding up to nine cards after the 9 means they won’t get counted, so you can subtract that number of cards from 60 to hit any number between 51 and 59.
    It’s a really cool principle and a deceptive trick. Thank you for sharing

      9 cards will get counted, which makes number 51 a bit of a problem.

    Gaffer, is there a point where this can go wrong?? I’ve been doing it a few times and like 4/10 times I get it wrong, usually when my spectator(gf) says 2, or 4, I beleove are the ones it’s happened more than once with

    Pete, I could explain the math to you if you want to. Shoot me an email if you do.
