Fan Force

Start by shuffling the deck, you can do this causally with the cards facing you. as you finish shuffling the cards catch a glimpse of the bottom card and remember it. Now fan the cards, but as you do this secretly push the bottom card under the fan like in Fig 1. The card I am pushing is the 10 of Spades (the card to be forced) to my right.

Now while your secretly doing this ask the spectator to touch any card. Once they have touched a card slide the card you are forcing a little ways past it under the fan. Then seperate the fan at the location of the card they touched. now square that half and show them the card you secretly slid under the fan and forced.

The Glide

(This can be used as a control too)

Hold the cards in your right hand with your thumb wrapped around the long side of the deck to your left. Your other four fingers should be wrapped around the other long side of the deck to your right. Refer to fig 2. below. Now pull back the bottom card using your middle finger, ring finger, and pinky finger. Refer to fig 3&4 to see what this looks like from the bottom of the deck. Now just pull out any number of cards the spectator wants, EXAMPLE: the spectator wants 5 cards from the bottom of the deck, sneak a peak at the bottom card and remember it, do the glide, deal 4 cards and then pull out the REAL bottom card as the 5th card. You can then show them the card. It looks very inocent but in the end you`ll always know what card they are seeing!
