The piece I’m sharing this month is probably the one that most often elicits, “Can you teach me that?” when I session with other magicians. It’s a clean, elegant sequence for Spectator Cuts to the Aces with a natural rhythm that’s as pleasing to perform as it is to watch. I hope you’ll find as much joy in exploring it as I have found in performing it.
I’ll begin by teaching the basic mechanics, then explore a few additional applications of the handling beyond Spectator Cuts to the Aces.
This trick is fairly straightforward and easy to execute, though the explanation may read a bit wordy in my effort to be thorough. I highly recommend watching the accompanying video. It will give you a clearer sense of the timing and make it easier to follow the basic steps.
