Effect

The Four-a-Assembly is a classic card trick where four Aces visually assemble together in a seemingly impossible way. The magician shows four Aces, places them into different parts of the deck, and then—with a magical gesture—they all reappear together in one place. The effect is clean, direct, and leaves the audience wondering how the Aces could defy logic and gather in one spot.
