Yo wasuuup!
Magical G here… (the mysterious dude behind the camera for all the FreeMagicLive.com videos).
Jay Jay and I recorded the above video while prancing the streets of downtown Brisbane here in Australia.
Tell you what…
That Jay Jay boy is something else. Now I’ve always been interested in magic, but the level at which Jay Jay performs his magic just blows my mind.
Inside today’s video, Jay Jay once again manages to totally baffle a couple of beautiful ladies.
And you know what the funny part is?
This has got to be one of the easiest tricks to prepare for and perform.
But once again, as I keep watching Jay Jay perform, I realize that the actual trick is only like 10% of the overall performance. It’s what happens “around” the trick that really seems to matter.
So, in today’s video, take special note of everything else that Jay Jay does, apart from the actual trick.
And also watch how he gives his audience (the two beautiful girls in this case) time to respond to his illusion.
Extra Tips For Rounding This Magic Trick Off
- Let your audience shuffle the deck before you start.
- Jay Jay always likes making the indicator card a 7 or 8 as people will notice and see the illusion better.
- You can either let them cut the cards in your hand or you can cut the deck yourself. However, do not let them shuffle the cards. This will kind of screw up your whole trick!
- Finally, practice until you know this trick blindfolded… or in the dark! Even though it’s a simple one, the more you practice, the smoother it will become, and the more convincing it will look.
Let me know how you get on and also any other magic tricks you would like to learn.
Talk soon!

Hi Talha,
At the moment….no.
But maybe in the future!
Jay Jay
Hi, Talha!
Here is the trick:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HdQ0J_TQnNE
Not the best “how to do” video, but you can learn the trick!
(I use the jokers, because you have 2 jokers in one deck, and the ace of spades,because its my favourite card:) )
I think it involves the double lift
if you know what i mean
my bad wrong person to reply to :$
it is very simple trick this guy like to fool every body but he never can fool me so trick is done by 2 same cards for e.g.(you have 2 ten of hearts ok so put one 10 of heart on top and other on 3rd position.it is set up..
now you do double lift… ok
it shows random card and flip it back and put the card on there hand..
then you again do double lift and so them 10 of hearts and take the random card you shown…
than do wave or something like that and trick is over…….
hey jay jay,
its very funny in all of your videos you always say cool and i always laugh hahah : P
pritty good trick : ]
Hey Josh
Magical G here…
Yeah, Jay Jay does like to say the word “cool” a lot. I will tell him to maybe ease on it a bit… or not
Nice chatting to you on here…
Magical G
Nice trick lol. I have found when doing tricks that almost all tricks have another trick that is similar and this is no exception. I subscribed through RSS, but my question is, what type of software are you using to record your videos. I am just curious because I would like to be able to do something similar
Hi Izzy,
Magical G and I are using Final Cut Express and we are filming the videos with Sony HD Handycams.
Hope we helped!
Jay Jay

Hey, Jay Jay, this is Chase. I just wanted to comment that you are great @ doing magic tricks and I wish you could post one every day. Also, I was just wondering, I don’t know if this is nice to ask,so if it’s rude I’m terribly sorry, but are you Austrailian? I was just wondering. I’m sorry if I afended you, it’s just that I’ve never talked to a Austrailian person so I don’t know what to say. -Thanks-
-Chase
HAHAHAH,
Chase that made me laugh….
Thanks for your nice thoughts.
Yes I am Australian and we are normal people like everyone else…so you can speak normally to me…
Once again very funny….
Jay Jay
Nice trick! I find it works well if you use a 5 and use the four aces as the cards underneath the 5.
Hi Trevor,
Great tip thanks!
Magical G
hey thanks ive been wating for a card trick like this

HI MY NAME IS YOUSEF
GOOD MAGIC HAHAHA
I LAIKE THES MAGIC
OK SEE YOU
Hey Yousef,
Thanks for your nice thoughts!
Keep practising and performing my tricks!
Jay Jay
Heyy everyone,
I have one tip for preforming this trick that gets way more audience reaction. When you show the first card make a big deal about, but not to big of dealand then i say” What if this is a sign and its telling us that your card is 6 cards down” (just an example) then once you get to there card say ” Wouldnt it be pretty cool that if i turn the next card overand its your card” slowly turn over the card and let the audience freak out just a little suggestion. This works better for me when if doing this cause it works them up for thebig surprize!
Hi Michael,
Thanks for the advice for everybody!
Yes, it is important to sometimes slow down the magic and build up the trick!
I need to slow down with my magic too!
Thanks again,
Jay Jay
These are very well performed tricks and easily understood. They need to be for a 63 year old new magician! Keep up the good work. Could you tell me how to magic up a winning scoreline for Wales when we play Australia again?
Bob
just one question magical G, your first tip says let them shuffle, your 3rd tip says let them cut but dont let them shuffle. Which is it? or should we do the set up while our back is turned to the spectator.
Hey Richard,
Jay Jay here.
Sorry this is a bit confusing….
You should let them shuffle at the beginning so they know its a real deck and no set-up.
Then after that only let them cut…..
Hope that helped!
Jay Jay
Hi JayJay,
I dont get the Extra Tips For Rounding This Magic Trick Off “Let your audience shuffle the deck before you start.”
This is a pre-setup deck, if audience shuffle the deck, the pre-setup deck will be a gone case right?
Hi Kyo,
Good point!
Typically I let them shuffle, then when they take a card I quickly set-up the deck…while my back is turned.
Hope I could help!
Jay Jay
Hmm, what if there are other audience around and beside you? Normally when street magic is being perform, people tends to come round to watch what’s happening… haha
Hey Kyo,
what do you exactly mean?
I mean, if you let the audience shuffle the deck, they choose a card meanwhile you set-up the deck, if there will be other audience standing around you, how are you going to do the set-up?
Hi Kyo,
2 things,
1. Do not let them shuffle and have the deck set-up already.
2. Or walk away from the group as they show their card to everyone.
Simple!
Jay Jay
Hey JayJay
your tricks have added to my super hero belt of tricks…lol
people are still asking me how to do the salt shaker through the table…..if you have the time check out my youtube channel….. here is one video and you can find the rest from there,…but i know your prob busy so dont sweat it………http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ne7Ly9LUAVE and actually the very first trick is one i made up and i have found that it works on pretty big crowds….but thanks if you watch my videos, and thanks if you dont just because you help me with my magic career that i hope to pursue
hey Cody!
I checked out your video! Great job!
See if you can film it for a real audience as people love seeing this…
keep practising and performing!
Jay Jay
ok, i got to get an actual digital camera since all i use is my webcam but that wont be a problem…..im so glad that you like it, and im glad that you took the time to watch it…i will keep practicing, everyday…..
good job cody!
what if until i get a camera you perform it….i could post a video on how its done and what not….but i dont know, you can think about it
what do you mean cody?
putting 5 as indicator card and then put 4 aces before the chosen card is cooler
. fantastic five
btw nice tricks
ill be waiting for moree
no worries Billy!
Yes that is a great idea….that is what I love…you can make the trick how you want it!
Jay Jay
nice trick man seen it before but its a good reminder of what tricks i can still do
thanks Josh!

amazing tricks,I’m already doing it and it’s only been 5 minutes!!!
Jay Jay,do you know any levitation tricks,cause I’d like to learn some.
thanks,jimmy
Hi, I like your website, it’s great, I’ve a query, in this trick you stated in “Extra tips”; “Let your audience shuffle the deck before you start.”
How can this be possible ? I’ve tried it out, if the audience shuffle the deck before you start, your set-up will be screwed. Or did you mean before shuffle the deck before the set-up ?
Thanks for your´e great tricks.I like this one and i performe it most of the time when i do magic. Its easy to do but its hard to find out for the audience. Nice Trick, thanks again.
thx for the trick….. nice one
theres this trick that i really need to learn its basically like what you did with the get a kiss with a sneaky trick when you give them acard wich is not theirs they turn it over and its there card
Nice card trick Jay Jay
[..YouTube..] thanks for the idea!
jay jay
Wow! thats so cool jay2x
hey jay jay this is a great trick!! i learned it when i was 7. this was my first trick i learned!!!!
Thanks heaps jttingey!
Jay Jay
[..YouTube..] dude this is one of the best card tricks i have now! thx for the trick!
hahahahahahahahahahaha
[..YouTube..] when i practice for the first time i randomely puck up a card and it was the queen of clubs
[..YouTube..] wat deck is this?
how are u Jay Jay ? i like this trick , i knew that trick and i perfome it in the streets …. it’s really cool and ppl just think it’s magic but when they ask i just laugh
What a super simple trick. But as with all magic, the REAL magic is in the presentation. I will give it a go and see what happens! Thanks, JayJay and Magic G.
[..YouTube..] they DB playig cards
C’mon Jay. Let’s move on instead of doing the same old card tricks really by either knowing the bottomcard or placing it before hand like this trick! Okay for the simple minded but not for the magic conventions. How about some coin tricks? Some good new and different tricks with coins. Ellusionist.com is coming out with a DVD on some great coin magic. Check out the preview on their site for ideas!
Let’s go up to the next level.
Best regards,
~Evan~

The email said “Jay Jay and I have created yet another very
powerful magic illusion for you.”
Sorry but this illusion has been around for a very long time.
coooool
Nice girls!!!! As well as nice trick!!!! You always pick nice girls, don’t you?
pretty cool trick it’s easy but nobody would know how to do that
A card trick I am really interested in is one Chris Angle preformed. He had I think 16 cards 4 aces and 12 others. There were 4 stacks 4 in each. In 1 of the stacks all the cards were face down. In the others the aces were face up but the rest still face down. He picked up one at a time all the stacks excluding the one that was all face down. Rotated them backwards out of view then forward. The ace dissapeared. Then at the end all the aces were in the last stack.
hi jay-jay..
i like this trick..
it’s simple but so cool..
hope to receive more from you..

As I do not yet have sound on my computer, is it possible to give written instructions along with your tricks? If I can copy script I can use it for prompt when I use it some time in the future when I have possibly forgotten parts of the trick.
Mike.
