Discover the Magic of “In Between” by Michal Kociolek
Michal Kociolek is not only the creative mind behind our captivating book and DVD covers but also an exceptional magician renowned for his expertise in card magic. This ebook presents an intriguing Sandwich-style effect that will leave your audience amazed.
In this effect, the spectator selects two cards and imagines a third card based on their values and suits. They then place the two chosen cards face-up anywhere in the deck while the performer turns away. After a single shuffle, the performer reveals a face-down card sandwiched between the two selections — the spectator’s imagined card. “In Between” is designed to astonish.
This comprehensive 36-page ebook unveils the clever and deceptive method behind this trick, offering three variations, including a “supercharged” version that will astound even the most seasoned magicians. The crediting provided is thorough and exemplary.
While mastering the faro shuffle is essential for this trick, the stunning effect is worth the effort if you haven’t yet perfected the technique.
“Bravo! Your original ‘In Between’ is just marvelous, but the ‘supercharged’ version would have, without question, thoroughly fooled the pants off me if you had simply performed it for me.” — Jack Carpenter
“What Jack Carpenter said!” — Tomas Blomberg

“My seething hatred for Michal’s genius can be best explained by the contents within these pages. This trick is just way too clever – you will fool yourself doing it the first time, and actually every time after that as well.” — Harapan Ong
“Michal Kociolek specializes in incredibly clever stacked deck effects that showcase methods of labyrinthine beauty. His manuscript, ‘In Between,’ features several versions of a truly unique effect: a card merely thought of appears sandwiched between two other cards.” — Bob Farmer
