Forsaken: A Captivating Card at Any Number Effect

Forsaken offers a beautifully straightforward yet powerful take on the classic card at any number routine, drawing inspiration from a renowned John Bannon trick. In this performance, a deck is shuffled, and a spectator freely selects a card while holding the deck. After placing the deck on the table, the spectator retrieves a change purse they’ve kept in their pocket from the start, pulling out various coins. The total value of the coins is counted, and that number of cards is dealt onto the table. However, the card at that position is not the chosen one! The spectator then checks their pocket to find an additional coin. The value of this coin is dealt and counted, leading to the astonishing revelation of the selected card!

This effect can be performed with a borrowed deck, is self-working, and is both impactful and practical. Experience the magic of Forsaken!
