Cross Cut Force - How to force a playing card

Forcing a card means getting a spectator to choose a specific card while convincing your audience that he or she has had a completely free choice. The cross-cut force is an excellent method for achieving this!

Before performing, secretly place the Three of Clubs to the bottom of the pack. Ask someone to cut about half the pack and place it on the table. To distract them, talk about the trick you are about to perform and then, casually place the other half of the pack across their half.

Request the spectator to lift the top half of the pack and to look at the card cut to.

You can use this simple card force for many tricks. Whenever you need to know in advance which card will be chosen, use the Cross-Cut Force!
