Experience the Classic Cards Across Effect

In this captivating routine, two sets of 10 cards are openly counted onto a spectator’s hand before being placed into two clear glass tumblers. The audience can easily see the cards throughout the performance.

Three cards are invisibly transferred from one glass to the other, and when the cards are counted back onto the spectator’s hand, one glass reveals only 7 cards while the other shows 13. This stunning effect is a classic demonstration of the cards across illusion.

What sets this routine apart is its simplicity — it requires no sleight of hand or complex moves. Everything unfolds right at your fingertips, without any need for palming or special counting techniques.

Perfect for close-up performances or intimate parlor shows, this routine appears so fair and straightforward that it seems impossible for three cards to have moved from one pile to another. Yet, they do!
