Copycat
1. This card trick requires two packs, each with a different coloured back. Ask a member of the audience to help you and give them one of the two packs-you take the other one. Tell the person to copy what you do
2. Start by both shuffling the pack in your hands.
3. Swap packs, but as you do so, take a peek at the bottom card of the pack you are handing over. Lets say it's the ace of spades for this example.
4. Choose a card from your pack and place it on the top. Instruct your helper to do the same.
5. Each of you cut the pack in your hands. Your helper's chosen card is now the one below the ace of spades.
6. Swap packs again and instruct your helper to remove their chosen card from the pack and place it face down on the table.
7. Forget the card you chose before and remove your helper's chosen card (the one below the ace of spades) and put it face down next to your helper's card.
8. Turn the card over at the same time as your helper, and low and behold, they're the same card!
