Magic . . .
And specifically: Card Magic
I have learned (or at least remembered that I know) 11 tricks and counting. I can do stuff ranging from forcing a card, making the chosen card the only one face down, to simple mathematical self-working tricks. I even know one where I literally throw the deck all over the place to find their card.
Do you know any card tricks?
What does the trick accomplish?
So, discuss card tricks here. But this isn't the place for tutorials on them, a magician never reveals his secrets. 
I'm glad to think that the community will always be kind and helpful, the language will always be a fun and easy way to be introduced into programming, the motto will always be: Imagine, Program, Share - Nomolos

Anyone who bothered to read the, uh, first line of my post would know this is about the magic tricks, using cards.

Re: Magic . . .
My friend knows one where he splits the deck into piles, you put your card in one od tyem. You tell him what the name of your card is like 'ace of hearts' he puts the deck together, then puts one card down at a time while spelling out the cards name, then flips over the last one and its your card.

I know a self working, "Lie Detector".
They can lie about your card, you spell their card by laying cards down, and you eventually find the true one.

Re: Magic . . .
80% or magic tricks are not magic.
Technocally they are sorcery.

Re: Magic . . .
I can slice a card in half, and drop it into a special bag. With the half of a one of hearts card, I put in a 2 and a 4. After I scrunch up the bag, the cards tun into a 6 1/2 card because of my (calculator bag.) It scares my friends!!

Re: Magic . . .
I can turn a card into money.
Now THAT's magic.
I'm rich now.
But I gave away my magic artifact accidently to the Salvation Army
Along with all the money I earned

Re: Magic . . .
I never performed card tricks, but I had a friend who was pretty good with them. My favorite trick of his: he would take out a deck of cards, ask someone to pick a card and put it back in the deck in a random spot. Then he would put the deck in his back pocket and pull out the card the person picked.
Everything is better when you add a little cheddar, because when you have cheese your life is at ease

Re: Magic . . .
Here's a trick:
"Hey! Wanna play 52 pickup?"
"Sure... I don't know what it is, but SURE!!"
*scatters 52 cards all across the floor*
"Pick 'em up."
"That's cheap!"

Re: Magic . . .
I know a card trick called Magic Slap. First I magic-slap the deck and ask someone to randomly choose a card. Then I have them put the card on top. Again I magic-slap, and ask them to take a card off the top of the deck. It isn't their card 
then, I have them put the card back and I magic-slap... and it is their card

Re: Magic . . .
Here's an easy one.
Get 21 cards.
Let someone choose one.
Put back and shuffle.
Make three piles and ask them which pile their card is in. Put that pile in middle. Put other two around middle one. (duh...)
Repeat two more times.
Now find the 11th (middle) card.
If not, then it might be the 10th or 12th.
