Lee Smith - Fifth Element

PDF

Spectator is shown five cards and asked to think of any one of them.
The five cards are placed one at a time into the spectators hand and
he is challenged to trap his chosen card as soon as he sees it by
placing his other hand on top. The magician then proves the spectator
wasn? t quick enough by producing the thought of card from his pocket.

In this pdf booklet Lee Smith presents two of his favourite effects from
his working repertoire. There has been a lot of interest in these two
tricks which can both be done impromptu with a borrowed deck and have
a mentalist theme. Both routines seem to the spectator to have
"thought" of cards rather than the standard pick-a-card trick.
