Created by: Alexander Herman, SeanDevine

Impromptu Free Choice is a close-up card trick where a spectator makes a series of free choices with a deck of cards, ultimately leading to the revelation that their freely selected card matches a prediction card that was in the magician's pocket all along. This trick is designed to be impromptu, requiring only a standard deck of cards and one additional card from a different deck placed in the magician's pocket. It's a streamlined version of the 'Ultimate Free Choice' trick, focusing on simplicity and the element of surprise.

What people are saying about Impromptu Free Choice

SeanDevine says...

I love the trick it fooled me badly and that's the thing I think it's strictly designed for magicians to be a magician fooler because we all know the best way to fool a magician is to use methods that we're not used to and ones we think uh would not be used in this particular effect.
