I was watching a internet video of a 4 aces transpo. The magician was using what looked like a palm but then he showed his palm to be empty and made the card he "palmed" appear on the table. Anyone know what effect this is and where i might obtain it. Also i was performing Nemesis for my dad and i was about to ditch the cards for the clean up, im pretty sure i did everything correctly but for some reason my dad instantly looked at the ditched cards and caught me. Anyone have any further advice or perhaps a better method of cleaning the trick up.

The aces trick is called an invisible palm and i think it originated with Paul Harris though there are many versions.

An ace one and an impromptu one (with any cards - both could be described as improptu) can be found in The Art of Astonishment Volume 3 - the latter called "the mondo nifty invisible palm."
