Jon loves to collect, compare, and organize tricks into themes and plots. This is his latest work on the piano trick.
WHAT IS THE PIANO TRICK?
A spectator places his hands palm down on the table in the same way a pianist places his hands on a keyboard. Then pairs of cards are placed between the spectator's fingers to set the stage. These pairs are then fairly removed to form two equal piles. An extra or "odd" card is added to one of the piles. Then, without any further movements or fanfare, the "odd" card inexplicably travels to the other pile.
