To Everyone!

I think there is no a magic trick inventor who should not have at least one mental piece. Now I would like to introduce also one of my mental trick which works on my own developed method.

Leonardo ESP Test (Card version with 8 drawings)



Effect: The Magician shows 8 cards to the audience, each of them presents a very clear and identical figure. He lays down the cards one by one on the table and ask a spectator to mentally select on of them while he is turning away, showing his back. Important that the Magician should not see which is the mentally selected card.
After that the Magician shows only 2 cards one after the other each containing 4-4 drawings. Spectator has to say yes or no if he sees his selected drawing.

The surprise is that the Magician can tell immediately which is the card chosen by the spectator!

The trick is fully automatic there is no chance for mistake!

I think, with respect, that this is easier to read....


Effect: The Magician shows 8 cards to the audience, each of them a different symbol

He lays down the cards one at a time on the table and ask a spectator to think of one of them while he turns his back.

It's Important that the Magician does not see which is the mentally selected card.

After that the Magician shows 2 more cards , each containing 4 of the symbols.

The Spectator has to say yes or no if he sees his chosen symbol.

The surprise is that the Magician can tell immediately which is the card chosen by the spectator!

one thought though.. If both cards are devided into quaters by the white lines, the spectators may well say yes to both cards, if they are thinking of the cross.

( excuse me if this is part of the method )

Dear Dale,

Thanks for your help! I hope you correct me later too in case I am a little difficult.

Congratulation! The the solid half-way-lines are the secret 5th drawing.

Of course this should not be looked at however if someone recognize this the effect is still successful.

Regards,

Leonardo
