Now, the trick looks fairly easy once you know what to do, but it does require a pre-determined deck of cards and a careful eye.
Here’s the order that the cards must be placed in before starting the trick, thanks to the guys at TAGSmagic on YouTube…
Red Q - Red Q - Black Q - Black Q – J – 6 – 7 – 3 – K – 2 – 5 – 2 – 5 – J – 7 – K – 6 – 7 – 3 – K – 6 – 7 – 3 – K – 2 – 5 – 10 – 10 – 10 – 10 – J – 4 – 4 – 8 – 8 – 8 – 4 – 9 – 9 – 9 – 9 – 8 – A – A – A – A - "What The Hell" – J – 2 – 3 – 4 – 5 – 6 (2-6 need to be spades)…
Once you have the deck sorted out, you'll have to practise your 'fake shuffles'. 'A fake what,' we hear you ask?
A fake shuffle is when you appear to mix the cards up with a complicated manoeuvre, but all you're actually doing is putting the cards back in their original order without anyone noticing.
This is where the trick could go arseways, so make sure to practise hard.
Now, for the fun part: Skip to the 2:43 mark to see exactly how the 673 King Street trick is done…
