1 A selected (court) card is revealed and then the middle is
knocked out.
3 A card is selected and then lost in the deck. A special spinning
tray is displayed. An indifferent card is removed from the deck
and placed on the tray. The tray is placed into motion and when it
stops it is revealed that the card has transformed into the
selected card.

face up until performer says stop. The card stopped at is the
selected card; shiner

three grid. They are turned over one at a time to reveal the
