An incredible new packet trick from Vanishing Inc.'s own, super-talented, in-house graphic designer (and magician), Michal Kociolek.
“Misdeal is a short, sweet routine with a diabolical method and a pleasing presentation.”Joshua Jay
“Michal's new packet trick is a hybrid poker-deal/printing effect and is the kind of trick laymen love. Emerson and West would have sold thousands of these!”Mark Elsdon
When he’s not designing Vanishing Inc.’s stunning books, trick packaging, and more, Michal’s devious mind dreams up amazing magic tricks. His latest creation, “Misdeal”, is a wonderful packet trick that is now available exclusively at Vanishing Inc.
Ten cards are spread face-down in a row. Without the faces being seen, you and your participant play a game of 10-card poker. Each of you takes turns drawing one card from the face down spread.
Still without looking at the cards, you explain how you are confident that you’ve won. You explain how the cards are marked and you know your participant has nothing. They look and they literally have nothing because their cards are blank.
Of course, now they want to know how you won? So, you tell them that you have the four Aces and then show the cards. These cards are also blank, but you assure them the marks confirm they are Aces.
….they are not impressed.
That is until you slowly, deliberately and magical “print” the aces from your blank cards one at a time. With the last magical transformation, you end up with five aces — a “misdeal” — so no one wins and no one loses!
“Michal has combined a few classic principles into one awesome routine packed with magical moments. Excellent stuff!” Harapan Ong
“Michal Kociolek has created a fantastic kicker to what appears to be a simple Poker routine.”Bob Farmer
Using a devilishly clever combination of common gaffed cards and brilliant thinking, Michal has devised a charming, unusual, and brilliant card trick that is easy enough for anyone to do.
“Misdeal” by Michal Kociolek is available as a download and uses simple gaffed cards and supplies that most magicians likely already own. However, you can also save time and effort by grabbing one of the pre-made complete sets (red Bicycle backs) available in limited quantities.
Both versions come with detailed PDF instructions illustrated by Tony Dunn. No matther which option you choose, you’ll absolutely love performing “Misdeal.”
Please note that the complete sets come with all the cards, you will still need one extra little inexpensive "something" that nearly every single magician likely already owns. The "something" you choose to use will come down to personal preference, and that's why it's not initially included. This is all covered in the instructions.
