MATCHED Beginner Card Trick Tutorial

Hello again everybody. Today I'm going to show you a really cool card trick tutorial. At the end of the video I'm going to announce the winners of the signed deck giveaway from my last video, plus there's going to be another signed deck giveaway. First I want you guys to check out the performance by Contrix. The performance will be right over here on my channel. So I'm not sending you over to his channel, but you can go over there and subscribe to his channel. He's got some amazing card tricks and tutorials, and while you're at it, if you haven't, subscribe to my channel. So first check out this card trick by Contrix, and then I'll show you how it's done. For my next trick, I will need a shuffle pack of playing cards, so I'm just going to give the cards a very quick shuffle. And for this trick, I will need all the red cards, okay? So I'm just going to make two piles, one pile is going to be the pile with the hearts, and the other pile is going to be the pile with the diamonds. So I'm just going to do that very quick. So now I just separated the cards, right over here I have all the hearts, and right here I have the diamonds. Of course I can show them to you very quick, hearts, and right over here I should have all the diamonds, as you can see. So for this effect, I need this pack here to pick one of those piles, diamonds or hearts. Now let's say this pack here wants the pile with the diamonds. Now I want this pack here to cut to a different, to a randomly selected spot. In this case, let's say this card over here, turn it over, and just drop the remaining cards on top. Now I'm just going to take this pack and deal this pack into three rows. Now I will take the other pack, and I'm going to place one card on top of each card. Again, on top of the six of diamonds, we have this card over here. So now let's recap very quickly. We have here a completely shuffled pack of playing cards, we deal the pack into two piles with hearts and diamonds, and this pack here to pick the six of diamonds, so the pile with the six of diamonds, with the diamonds. And after that, I took the pile with the hearts and I placed one card on top of each diamond. And now we have here of course one card on top of the six of diamonds, which just happens to be the six of hearts, the perfect match. But that's not the end of the trick, we have here a perfect match. But if you look at the other cards, you can see that we have here 13 matching cards, as you can see. I really like this effect because the cards are shuffled, they're cut, they appear to be mixed up, but they're not. It requires a little bit of a setup, and what you're going to do is you're going to take out all the red cards, and you're going to separate the hearts from the diamonds. So that shouldn't take too long, spread out the hearts, and what you want to do with the exact same order as the hearts. So we're going to take out the two, now this is a random order as long as both piles are in the exact same order. So 2, 7, 8, Jack, Queen, 4, 5, 10, 3, 6, 9, King, Ace, 9, King, Ace. So the hearts and the diamonds are in the exact same order. Now what you're going to do is take one of the piles and cut them in half and complete the cut. Flip both of them over, now you're going to shuffle the hearts and the diamonds together. Now we're going to take all the red cards and place them on top of all the black cards. And now we're ready to begin. What you want to do first is you want to make sure you cut past 26 cards. So go past 26 cards, and you tell the spectator we're going to shuffle the cards together, and now you can give the deck a cut. So one cut, complete the cut, turn the cards over, and now you tell the spectator you're going to separate the hearts and the diamonds. So just set the black cards down and you're going to deal them one at a time. So we're going to go diamonds, diamonds, hearts, diamonds, hearts, hearts, diamonds, diamonds, hearts, diamonds, diamonds, hearts, diamonds. Get rid of the black cards. What you're going to do is you're going to show that all the diamonds are in a random order, and when you're doing this you're going to remember the bottom cards. So we're going to remember the 6 of diamonds. And now you're going to look for the 6 of hearts. So as you're showing the cards, you're going to now split the cards just like that and move the 6 to the bottom. So now you have the 6 of hearts on the bottom and the 6 of diamonds on the bottom. So what this does is it now sets up so that all the hearts and all the diamonds are in the exact same order. You're going to ask them now to choose either the hearts or the diamonds. Let's say they say the hearts. You're going to have them cut to a certain point, flip over a card and set the rest of the cards on top. We'll set these cards off to the side. So now we're going to deal 13 cards. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13. We're going to take the diamonds now and deal them exactly the same way. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13. So now you can recap. The cards were shuffled. They were cut. The red cards were separated into hearts and diamonds. You selected a heart. We now dealt the cards out and your card, the 8 of hearts, is now paired up with its perfect match, the 8 of diamonds. Well that's only a 1 in 13 chance so that's a little bit impressive. But what's more impressive is all the cards are paired up with their soulmates and that's it. So this is a pretty cool trick. Let me know what you guys think.
