Knowing the order of a Deck

Postby mystico » Sep 29th, '08, 17:11



Hi, I have an effect I can only half remember the workings of.

It's basically knowing the order of a deck or rather what card comes next, now without giving anything away, i remember how to know the value of the next card, but cant remember the formula for knowing what suit its going to be.

Does anyone know the method I am talking about?

And also bear in mind that it's customary for women and children to leave in that order before the guys leave....

Seems to me that a breakthrough is needed.

There are several orders that are commonly used for this one example would be svengali's which you can easily find on the internet. I use it all the time and nobody ever figures it out. (false shuffles help)

Having made the effort to learn Juan Tamariz's method, I do not know why I ever bothered to learn anything else.
