Déplacement de carte
1. Fan the deck out with the cards face down.
2. Ask a spectator to choose a card and to look at it.
3. As he's looking at his card, you close up the fan and cut the deck in two, holding the lower part in your left hand, and the upper in the right one.
4. Ask the spectator to put his card on the lower part, in your left hand.
5. As the right hand comes to drop the upper part over the other one in the left hand, secure a small, invisible break between the two parts of the deck, above the chosen card.
6. Now, you ask the spectator for the name of a different card (not the one he took). Let's call this card 2. As you do that, make a move to bring the chosen card to the top of the deck. This can be done in two ways:
-First way: You can simulate that you are randomly cutting the deck. Cut it into 3 parts, the first one being the part of the deck below the chosen card (card 1), and the other two being the remainder of the deck. Now you can arrange the three parts, in order to have the chosen card at the top. If done properly, it's very efficient.
-Second way: Harder, but more impressive: You can do what is called in french "un Saut de Coupe". It is an invisible move where you make the bottom part go over the other one. It's quite hard to do, but many tricks are based on it. An explanation of a "Saut de coupe" called the "saut de coupe Charlier" can be found in the skills page. It should be done with your left hand, hiding it with the right one.
7. Now, you've got the chosen card at the top of the deck, faces toward the ground.
8. Turn the deck faces upward, and scroll the cards one after the other until you see the card 2.
9. While you're doing that, slide your lower card (the taken one) under the cards that you've already scrolled. When you see the card 2, remove the cards that seem to be under the card 2 ( but that are in fact between the card 2 and the taken one), putting them to one side. Make a deck with the remaining cards. The last card is the chosen one, just after the card two. So now you can do a double lift, taking these two cards as if there was only one, the card 2. With a great smile, you make the chosen one appear!
