Hey guys, Elleb here, and this is a little collaboration...
...together with KaanTricks, where he will do a little performance...
...and I will do the tutorial afterwards.
On his channel it is exactly opposite:
There I did a performance and he explained the trick.
The video is linked in the description and the info card above.
And without further ado we come to his performance (after the intro).
(I don't need to translate the intro music, do I?)
(It's the first time I'm making these, so just asking...)
For my next trick...
No, certainly not. But for those, who know me, there is the first video in german on the channel of Elleb.
For those, who don't know me: My name is Kaan, I have an english YouTube channel,...
...where I perform magic tricks, mainly card tricks, which I explain afterwards.
If you haven't seen my channel, I would appreciate a visit from you.
If you like the content on my channel I would appreciate it, if you subscribed.
There's nothing left to talk about me, I am pleased to be on the channel of Elleb and I am ready to show you a cool and visual card trick,...
...which Elleb will explain afterwards. But now we will begin...
For this trick I need the four kings.
The goal is pretty simple: We want the kings to turn themselves over one after another.
The only thing we need to do to accomplish that is...
...a little bit of pressure on the card...
...and so one king has turned around.
For another king we need to press one more time...
...and so the second king turned around.
We still need to turn over two more kings.
And now you know how; just touch the cards...
...and the third king has turned around.
For the last king the scenario is a little bit tougher.
And because of that we need to push a little bit harder in the middle of the cards.
Hopefully the fourth king has turned around.
And this has been it.
Maybe also a little advice:
If you don't like the kings...
...or have any other reason...
...you can use completely different cards.
And this has finally been it, now the tutorial from Elleb.
This was the performance from KaanTricks; he is obviously linked in the description and in the following endcard.
He produces videos in a similar style but exclusively in english.
For this trick you will need eight cards...
...and it is only one card sleight you need to know: The Ascanio Spread.
The setup is as follows: You need the four kings, or another four of a kind, and put two face up at the top and two at the bottom of the packet.
In the middle there are four random cards face down.
The Ascanio Spread was invented from Don Arturo de Ascanio y Navas, who lived from 1929-97.
He was a spanish magician, who invented some famous routines and of course the Ascanio Spread.
The Ascanio Spread can be used to cover up/don't show some cards in the middle of a packet, while showing all the cards you want to show.
This would be the Ascanio Spread; or for the camera like this.
I modify the angle of the spread for the audience, so it looks kind of funny in this camera angle.
So, this would be the Ascanio Spread, with which you can here show four cards and don't show another four.
You begin with the packet in Biddle Grip.
If the technical terms and grips are new to you check the notification in the right upper corner; there I explained everything in detail (video is in german!).
So, Biddle Grip in the right hand.
Now you strip the top card with the left thumb slightly to the side. This needs some practice, because you don't want to move any other cards except the top card.
You also move the card at your left thumb slightly down with the whole hand while simultaneously moving the right hand slightly up.
As guidance: The card at the left thumb should be at the horizontal and vertical half of the packet in the right hand.
When you did that the left middle finger is in the perfect place to strip away the bottom card of the packet.
You simply make a little contact to the back of the card with your left middle finger and pull the card away.
The cards are squared, left thumb moves the card down with the left hand, right hand goes slightly up, the middle finger makes contact to the back of the cards and pulls the card away and slightly up.
If you have done that you bring the right hand down, slightly below the card at the left thumb, and grab the bottom card of the packet in the right hand with the left pinkie finger. After that bring the hands apart.
But it's important that the corner of the packet in the right hand (with the King of Clubs) stays with the corner under the King of Diamonds (in this case).
Otherwise you will get problems, when you try to square up the cards, because you maybe change the order and show with another spread different cards, which you don't want.
So pay attention that this doesn't happen, that you move the packet too far to the right.
You can display the cards in a wider spread and move the packet from under the card, but you need to keep the space under the King of Diamonds (in this case)...
...so that the packet can still be put in the second position from the top.
So one more time:
Middle finger and thumb grip the packet.
Left thumb pulls the top card to the left side and slightly down with little force, right hand goes slightly up.
Left middle finger grips the bottom card from behind and pulls it to the top left. Right hand goes down.
The left pinkie finger grips the bottom card of the packet in the right hand and the right hand goes slightly up, so that you display the cards as shown.
A little advice: If the packet in the right hand is a bit larger, like in this case with five cards, angle the packet to the spectator, which I mentioned in the beginning.
Angle the cards so, that the spectator can't see the thickness of the packet and looks straight onto the cards. Try to block any view on the sides of the cards.
If you learned the basics of the Ascanio Spread by now and want to learn the trick you begin with the cards in the shown setup:
Two Kings face up on top, two Kings face up on the bottom and four random cards face down in the middle.
And a little bit extra: If you want to end the trick completely clean, put the rest of the deck in front of you, face down. The reason for that in just a moment.
Setup just like this.
Make a normal Ascanio Spread in the beginning to show the spectator the four Kings.
After that square up the packet and simply put the top card, the King of Diamonds, to the bottom.
Now do any magical gestures you want to make. Kaan used a little pressure on the cards as a gesture. In the rest of the tutorial I leave the gestures out.
Make a Ascanio Spread and show the first face down card, so that the first king has turned itself over.
Now take the second king, the King of Clubs, and put it on the bottom of the packet. And again the magical gestures as you please.
Make a Ascanio Spread and show that the second King has turned itself over.
Now take the top card, the first face down card, and put in on the bottom of the packet, some more magical gestures and the third King has turned itself over.
And the last card, or better the second face down card, to the bottom, and all Kings have turned themselves over in the end.
Now you turn the packet itself around, maybe after some more magical gestures, and can make another Ascanio Spread, because you are in the perfect position for it (Kings are in the middle now and aren't shown) to show that these are four random cards now.
You can end the trick here; close the packet and enjoy the moment.
But you can go one step further and end the trick completely clean without something odd in your hands:
For that you take the packet, which has the four Kings underneath, the only packet in the right hand, and put it casually on top of the deck in front of you...
...followed by the other three cards, which should be dealt untidy on top of the deck.
Because now you have an excuse to square up the whole deck and you can give out the four cards cleanly, if the spectator asks for them.
Now one more time:
You vaguely got this setup here with the four Kings in the middle.
You already did the Ascanio Spread and now you lay down the packet in the right hand on top of the deck, of course without flashing the bottom of the packet to the spectator; angle it away from him/her.
Just throw it on top, quickly, but not hastily, followed by the remaining three cards. After that square up the deck, so the face down cards don't stand out.
Now you can give the face up cards to the spectator and shuffle the deck, so that the Kings aren't on top of the deck.
This was it for the trick from Kaan. A cool trick, not very difficult and just focused on the one sleight, but for beginners a very good trick, which produces awesome reactions with layman spectators.
Just try out the trick and check the channel from Kaan of course. He is linked in the description, as I stated before, and without further ado we come to the standard issue endcard.
So, cya!
(I hope there weren't this many mistakes...)
