Introducing The Ultimate Forcing Method – a groundbreaking method for card magic that combines a floating key card with the unique properties of shuffling face-up and face-down cards. It’s a “hands-off miracle” where the magician never touches the cards.
Here’s why you will want to add this to your act:
Spectator Involvement:Â The spectator does everything. They shuffle face-up into face-down cards, cut the deck multiple times, and ultimately remove the forced cards themselves. This creates an illusory sense of complete randomness, making it seem impossible for you to have any knowledge of the cards.
No Sleight-of-Hand:Â Both methods outlined are entirely sleight-of-hand free, making this powerful method accessible to magicians of all skill levels.
Unparalleled Versatility in Force Cards:Â You are not limited to just Aces. This method allows you to force any number of cards within reason, such as a Royal Flush, a blackjack hand, or even the spectator’s name using blank cards. The forced cards stay in order even after the spectator shuffles and cuts the deck, opening up intriguing possibilities for reveals.
Two Powerful Methods:
Method 1: Utilizes a normal, borrowed deck. While the magician has the option to touch the cards once to turn over a packet, it can also be performed completely hands-off.
Method 2: Though requiring a few additional seconds of preparation, this method is much stronger. It ensures you always see the key card, and most importantly, the effect gains meaning to the spectator by incorporating their name.
The Ultimate Forcing Method offers a unique combination of principles that creates a truly impossible effect from the spectator’s perspective. It’s clean, deceptive, and incredibly flexible, making it an essential tool for any serious magician.
No equivoque, no math, no memory work, no boring procedures.
