A chosen card is caused to magically change places with an indifferent card isolated under a glass.
Card Under Glass
Method
Have a glass on the table, to your side and spread a deck for a selection. Hold a finger break above the card as it is replaced into the center of the deck.
Double-cut the cards below the break to the top af the deck. You have controlled the selected card to the top. Perform a double lift, showing an indifferent card. Place the double card back on to the deck as your right hand lifts up the glass.
Then push off the top card of the deck and deal it on the table, and put the glass on top of the card. Dribble the deck on to the top of the glass, holding on to the last card. Turn it over to revealed it was the card just placed under the glass! With a flourish, turn the card under the glass face up to show that it has changed to the one selected.

| brodieboy 13th Jun 06 | theres a lot of tricks on here that just use the double lift to 'switch' a card, then reveal it in differet ways. | |
| pyro 21st Jul 06 | Like brodie said, its another double lift switch, but I myself do like the presentation. Good trick. | |
| striker506 3rd Sep 06 | im a begginer magician and im really starting to like these tricks and stuff and im just starting to get the hang of it but this trick i really like quite good | |
| Angrybob 3rd Sep 06 | This trick is just like the card switch trick where the spectator holds the card in between his hands and it changes, except this trick uses a bottle. | |
| ebo9 4th Nov 06 | wow! great trick! i did it on my brither and ive never seen him so confused and amazed. thanks a lot! | |
| studlystu 6th Nov 06 | This trick is quite excellent. It sounds a bit complicated but with practice, I really like the idea. | |
| revo18 30th Jan 07 | if you do a three card lift then you can show to the spectetator the card thats on top after puting it under the glass isnt the one shown at first its even better like that he cant say that u did a double lift | |
| TeapartyFanatic 7th Apr 07 | this trick is really great if you snap your fingers over the deck and say something like did u see that? and they wil say no, then u show them and say u saw them swap. that can make it more effective. | |
| Far 14th May 07 | VERY east trick but its okay. | |
| sollison 20th May 07 | i've got to hand it to you, it's brilliant. another brilliant trick is where I put a card through a window without an assistant's help. Here's how to do it. let the spectator select any random card. Then let them give you the deck. You should now shuffle them, palming their card. Tell them to shuffle the deck, and while their shuffling, wipe your mouth and lick the card,making it look like you just wiped your face.this lick will help it stick to the other side of the glass.Tell them to hold the deck of cards in a fan position on the window. You go to the other side and place the wet card on the window(from their view you just touched the window). Now put your hand over half of the card and pull with the other hand, which looks like psychic surgery, until the card comes completely out creating an amazeing effect. yourwelcome Sherman O. | |
| easterrhyming 23rd Jul 07 | you dont have to use a glass you can even put a "random card" inside the card box and then reveal it's their card! | |
| cchapman195 15th Aug 07 | I use this as one of my Ambitiouse Card sequences. After I make it apear inside the card case, and then into my wallet. Its a great way to add a nuber of ambitiouse card reveals. | |
| felipedr 20th Sep 07 | very nice trick, it`s an entertaining way to end a doble lift | |
| youngboy93 20th Sep 07 | i like this trick becuz it makes the spectator freak out | |
| Ezku 25th Jun 08 | Its just double lift with placing card under glass, yeye . | |
| zcat95 19th Feb 10 | This is a severly diffecult trick to show to dumb people since they don't quite see the significant power of a 'magicaly' changing card. | |
