>Setup: Before you start the card trick, find the two
>black 6's and the two black 9's. (The 6 of Spades, the
>6 of Clubs, the 9 of Spades, and the 9 of Clubs.) Take
>the 6 of Spades and the 9 of Clubs, and place one of
>them on the top of the deck and the other on the
>bottom. Keep the 6 of clubs and the 9 of spades
>separate.

>Trick: Show the deck of cards to your victim. (The
>person you are showing the card trick to.) Hold the 6
>of clubs and the 9 of spades in front of the person.
>Ask them to tell you what cards they are. They will
>say the 6 of clubs and the 9 of spades, of course. Ask
>them if the are sure. They will say they are sure.
>Hold up either of the cards and ask them what card it
>is. After they respond, place that card in the middle
>of the deck. Now do the same with the other card.

>Once both cards are inside the deck, place it down on

>trick dust. If they say, no say you will loan them
>some and reach into your pocket and pretend to
>sprinkle dust on the cards. If they say yes, tell them
>there's no such thing as magic card trick dust. Now
>rub your hands together and blow on them so your
>fingers are slightly moist. (This is important.)
>
>Pick up the deck by putting your thumb on top and your
>other fingers on bottom. Hold the deck very lightly.
>Swing the deck back and forth, and on the third swing
>throw the deck to your other hand, but make sure you
>hold onto the top and bottom card. Your moistened
>fingers will help.
>
>Ending: After all that, your victim will still
>remember the cards, but only vaguely. When you show
>them the 6 of spades and 9 of clubs that you
>"pre-placed" they will be astounded, unless they have
>an awesome memory.
