A Revolutionary Card Trick by Erik Casey

Introducing the Expression Test, a captivating card trick that has taken over six years to perfect. In this routine, a spectator freely selects a card from a shuffled deck, which is then returned and shuffled again.

Next, you present four cards, each one getting closer to the chosen card as you interpret the spectator’s expressions. Although they insist their card isn’t among the displayed options, a simple shake of the cards reveals the selection in a stunning visual moment.

As the audience regains their composure, the remaining three cards are unveiled, matching the chosen card flawlessly. This effect requires minimal sleight of hand, utilizes a borrowed shuffled deck, and is performed without any gimmicks, making it suitable for any environment.
