    Expert Answer
    Performing a magic trick is not just about the trick itself but also about the presentation. Even a simple trick can become impressive with a creative and entertaining presentation. To start, choose a trick and focus on how you'll present it to captivate your audience. Remember, the goal is to entertain people, so prioritize creating a memorable experience. While technique is essential, being able to engage your audience conversationally is just as crucial. Use your skills to distract and engage your audience while smoothly executing the trick. Ultimately, a combination of technique, presentation, and engaging communication will elevate your magic performance and leave a lasting impression on your audience.

    How do I guess a person's card?

    Community Answer
    You need to know the bottom card of the deck. For example, 4 of hearts. Remember it. Fan out the cards and let the other person pick any card. Then, tell him to put it at the top of the deck. Then tell him to cut the deck a couple of times so you won't know where the card is. (Cutting is lifting part of a deck and putting the other part on top.) When the person cuts it, the card will be next to the bottom card. After you say you can find his card, take the deck, and look for the four of hearts and look at the card on its right.

    Grasp the coin in your hand in a tight fist, being careful not to show them. Use this hand to do it, place the hand nest to their ear and then pull it out.
