Effect

You predict the first sentence on a page selected by the spectator!

Sleights

• Force

Method

First, you will need a deck of cards and a book.

Step 1- Get a book and flip to a page with a three digit number(like page 101, 306 etc.) and write down the first sentence of that page on a piece of paper. Place the prediction in an envelope.

Note: This should be done before the performance without the spectators knowledge.

Step2- Hand the spectator the book and tell them to examine it. Then hand the spectator the deck of cards and tell them to examine those as well. Hand the spectator the envelope with the sentence on it and tell them to hold on to it.

Step3- Force three cards on the spectator. These three cards will be the page number they turn to. For example, let's say you force the three of diamonds, the nine of hearts, and the four of spades, the spec will turn to page 394.

Step4- Have them open the book to that page and leave it open and have everyone look at the first sentence. Then instruct the spectator to open the envelope and read what it says.

Both of the sentences will match perfectly!
