How to have spectators card find four aces! | Saturday Sorcery Allan Ackerman tutorial
This tutorial video, part of Murphy's Magic's "Saturday Sorcery" series, teaches Allan Ackerman's "Four Aces" card trick, an excerpt from *World's Greatest Magic* volume 2. Beau Cramer, the host, highlights that this is a "self-working" effect, relying on clever setup and presentation rather than sleight of hand. The video begins with a brief performance featuring an assistant, Melanie, before diving into the explanation. The core of the trick involves secretly placing a reversed five card at the bottom of the deck, immediately followed by the Four Aces. This setup, combined with a strategic cut, creates the illusion of the Aces appearing in the spectator's hand. Beau emphasizes the importance of presentation, suggesting magicians highlight the mystery of how the Aces end up in the spectator's hand. The video also promotes a giveaway of a "self-working card magic bundle" and encourages viewers to join the Murphy's Magic Discord server for community engagement and further learning. Overall, Allan Ackerman's Four Aces, as presented by Beau Cramer, is a deceptively simple yet remarkably effective card trick suitable for magicians of all levels.
