(bright upbeat)
(mumbles)
- I am Daniel Madison and
this is the Perfect Deal.
- {narrator] Once the participant
has shuffled the playing cards,
the magician spreads the deck
face off across the surface.
He looks through the deck,
and writes down a prediction.
He then invites his
participant to write down
four numbers between one and 52.
The magician then deals
playing cards face up.
He removes the four playing
cards and the four numbers.
He then invites his participant
to reveal the prediction
where she finds the
very four playing cards
are those four numbers.
(bright upbeat)
(sighs)
- No, not this is again,
here we go again.
(dramatic beats)
- Susan what are you ding?
I mean I appreciate the effort
the energy you brought
it's not really believable.
It's a real reaction,
you know what I mean?
- Its not real Daniel
I've just eaten too many sausages.
- Typical, I'm Daniel Madison
and this is Perfect Deal.
(dramatic music)
I am Daniel Madison, welcome back and
(claps)
Thanks for being here.
Charlie Madison I truly appreciate
for choosing to spend a bit
more time with us today.
So funk.
(shuffling cards)
In this video I'm gonna teach
something called Perfect Deal,
a Perfect Deal.
If you haven't seen my previous two videos
what are you doing?
Go watch 'em.
This follows on nicely from
Diamonds and Perfect Aces.
I've caught this on Perfect Deal.
It's inspired by and it's
a development of something
I used to call A X three.
We're gonna have a participant
shuffle the playing cards.
Once they've shuffled,
I'm gonna spread those playing cards out
and I'm gonna choose
four random playing cards
from within the deck.
Then I'm gonna ask my
participant two sausage
to write down four random
numbers between one and 52.
Not those very fun numbers
but the very four play cards I wrote down
before we even begun.
It's almost like real magic Charlie.
- [Charlie] This one
is quite similar to...
- Diamonds up to Perfect Aces.
However, the difference in this case,
because all the attention
is on the prediction
is on what's been written down,
as well as the deal playing
cards into a lovely little roll
nobody is looking at the dirt.
Nobody is looking at the deceptive method.
So for anybody who's trying
to build up the confidence
to do bottom deals or to execute
any false deals in front of somebody
that's a little bit scared
a little bit worried about,
get to find out or get to see
where you're doing it wrong.
This is a great trick for you.
This is a good one to
practise your bombing
in front of somebody
because they're not gonna
be looking at the deck.
They're gonna be looking at the magic
right in front of them.
There's a lot to cover in this video.
So I don't wanna waste too much
time before we get into it,
though, few things one,
do you like my T shirt?
You can have one if you want.
There's a link in the video description,
and I'll be talking about
these very beautiful
playing cards very soon.
Without further ado,
I'm Daniel Madison, Daniel Madison.
This is the Perfect Deal.
(bright upbeat)
For this explanation, I'm
gonna use the four Aces,
I've already got them on
the bottom of the deck.
Once you know the exact method
once you know how to do this,
we're gonna talk about how
you're gonna achieve this
with four random playing cards,
which is how the trick should work.
It just makes it clearer and easier
for me to explain when we use four Aces.
So I'm gonna keep those at
the bottom of the deck for now
if you haven't seen my
previous two videos,
they both deal with tricks
that kind of surround false dealing
and this is another one of those tricks.
However this video,
this trick is gonna be very
helpful and very useful
for anybody who's working on false dealing
but haven't quite got
the confidence to do it
in front of anybody yet.
This trick is designed to
completely hide the false deal
in the trick itself within the deception
at the moment that you execute the dirt.
You hear that Charlie.
At the moment that you
execute the dirty moment,
the deceptive moment, nobody's looking
'cause everybody's looking somewhere else.
That's how it's designed.
So, if you have a bottom deal,
a great deal, a false deal
that you feel isn't quite ready
and you're not confident enough with it,
you can do it in this trick.
I'm not advising that.
I'll never condone that,
Charlie, don't get me wrong.
I wouldn't say if you got
bombed you and perform it.
However, this one this
trick is a very good way
of practising  your bottom deal
without the trick having anything to do,
apparently, with a bottom deal.
Yes Charlie, I did air quotes
and I'll never do it again, I apologise.
And now I'm gonna take the
pen and the piece of paper.
I'm gonna take the deck
and I'm gonna spread it across the surface
so that all the cards can be seen
and I want my audience at this point
I want Susan Sausage my
beautiful participant
to believe that I am
choosing playing cards
from different parts of the deck.
Four different playing cards,
and I'm gonna write them down.
Really all I'm doing
is writing down the four
bottom playing cards right.
But I wanna make it look like
I'm choosing a card from here,
card from here,
card from here.
So once I spread the playing cards out,
instantly I look over here
and I remember the four
ball playing cards.
Now I'm gonna come over here
and I'm gonna pretend to
write one down over here,
but I'm just gonna write down
I'll say for the
explanation, Ace of Spades.
Now I'm gonna go over here
and pretend to choose from
from here, Ace of Hearts.
Now a bit further down, Ace of Clubs.
Wow, that's a beautiful Club,
and then Ace of Diamonds.
Now I'm gonna take this piece of paper
and place it face down
so that nobody can see those playing cards
the playing cards that
I've just written down.
It's important at this
point that I close the deck
turn it facing down,
so the old cards are hidden
and nobody can see them.
I'm gonna ask Susan Sausage
to write down four random numbers
with two more than 52
on this piece of paper.
However, now that I've closed the deck
and there's been a little bit of time.
I can show these playing
cards to the audience.
As long as I don't show Susan,
I don't want her to see but
I can show to somebody else,
just to kind of not over prove,
but to show people that
these are not gonna change,
we're not gonna change
these playing cards.
These are the playing
cards I'm committing to
so I can show them to my audience.
Now I can put it back down
and say "Susan write down
"four random numbers between one and 52
"so that everybody can see."
You might instinctively
as a magician think
this should be one of those
moments that nobody sees
these numbers should be private.
I should have to know the numbers.
But the openness of the trick
allows the trick to be
so much more casual,
and it focuses,
it forces our focus on to the
secrecy of these playing cards
rather the secrecy of something else.
We don't wanna share
out our secrecy Charlie
we wanna keep all our focus on same place,
which is the revelations, not the numbers.
So for our sake, let's go 3,
7,12,18 four random numbers.
Yes, there are random numbers,
but that's for our benefit.
What this does,
now that Susan's written
down those four numbers,
this instructs us,
which playing cards from the
deck are gonna be bottom deals.
So every number that we hit,
number three, number seven,
number 12, number 18.
These are all gonna be bottom deals,
but we're gonna perform
and present this in a way
that nobody knows that
this is what's happening.
If we tell somebody right now,
"right, I'm gonna deal to those cards
"and add those numbers,
"there will be a specific playing card"
if we do that,
then we're inviting our audience
to pay very close attention to the deck.
Right now about 30% of our audience
is gonna understand and
know what's gonna happen
just from the instruction,
just what what's happened so far.
But the way that we're gonna continue this
the way that our behaviour towards a deck
towards these numbers,
and especially in the behaviour
that we're gonna deal the playing cards
and how we're gonna deal them,
it's gonna lead everybody off track
and it's gonna feel so much
more casual than it actually is.
This is our secret weapon.
This allows us to force people
to look away from the dirt
from the deception itself.
So now we have to achieve
four bottom deals,
we know exactly where
we need to achieve them
and the way that we're gonna hide them
is by getting the deck ready.
Now when we deal playing cards,
we're gonna deal them in a row
so that people can see
all the playing cards.
And we go up to 18
so we go up to 18 playing cards
I'm gonna deal, I'll leave this
where we can see pretty much
I'm gonna deal about
20 to 23 playing cards,
and I'm not going to look at this, right.
I'm not gonna slow down,
I'm not gonna stop,
I'm not gonna be interrupted
And I'm not gonna look over here.
I'm just gonna make it look like
I'm dealing playing cards into a row
just kind of consecutively at
my own pace at my own speed.
Meanwhile, when we hit those numbers,
we're gonna deal from
the bottom of the deck,
I wanna deal these playing cards face down
and have them end face up on the table
in a spread face up.
There are so many tough
technical differences
and different styles of dealing
which will have a direct impact
on the way you bottom deal.
We'll talk about that later on
but now we're gonna focus on the point
where I do this deal
from the top to face up.
Deal from the top to the face up two
number three I'm gonna bottom deal.
Deal from the top face up bottom deal,
that's three, four,
five, six, bottom deal,
seven, eight, nine, 10, 11, bottom deal,
13, 14, 15, 16, 17, bottom
deal, 18, 19, 20, 21.
Where and how many cards have we got?
I doubt about 20 more playing cards then.
So that's what I say
when we get to this point
I deal all the way up to about 22, 23.
A few numbers past the final number 18.
Now we're gonna go, oh, did
we go past the biggest number?
Have we gonna pass the biggest?
Yeah we did.
We went past 18 right.
So we've got enough playing
cards to fill these numbers.
Now I'm gonna step back,
I don't have to do anything else,
everything is done.
And our participant can take
over and do everything else.
All the revelations normal manipulation
or normal dirt has to happen.
At this point we're gonna
point out these numbers.
Now we're gonna act is if we're only just
paying attention to these
numbers at this point.
So now I'm gonna get the
piece of paper and say
"wow, so you wrote 3, 7, 12, 18,
"and we've got about 23 cards.
"Let's find the cards of these numbers."
Look one, two, (mumbles)
three, four, five, six,
seven, eight, nine,
10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 16, 17, 18.
It's a beautiful thing
if you invite your
participant to do all of this,
of course, if your participants'
right there with you
get them to do this.
Because the amount of power
that you can add to a magic trick
by having them do everything
and having them touch everything,
your hands off approach
your ability to stand
back, makes the magic
makes the drama, makes
the impact so beautiful.
At this point, we've got our numbers
at this point, our
participant, our audience
probably know what's gonna happen next,
they probably crewed up.
And now what is left to do
is the revelation of same.
I wrote something down
before you wrote your
numbers on a piece of paper.
Although in this case,
we know that there are Aces,
so if she turns more
over and sees Ace Spade,
there's a Heart, there's Club,
there's Diamonds and of course
they're in that very order.
(screeches)
Just take the deck of playing cards,
give it a shuffle,
and then spread the deck out.
And now look at your
bottom four playing cards
and that's the trick.
And now write down nine of club,
seven of Heart,
Jack of spades and four of club.
So there's the trick.
Now I close the deck,
and I invite them to
write down four numbers.
Let's do this again.
3, 8, 13, 21
3, 8, 13, 21.
At this point, I think
is worth saying that
the flow is the most important thing.
And this is probably gonna be
the most challenging moment for you.
The IQ of dealing up to, in our
case, the highest number 21.
So dealing up to 23
mixture of fat deals and deceptive deals
without uninterrupted
flow is quite challenging.
So the best advice I can give
is to go a little bit slower
than you usually work with a deal.
Even if we do it the right speed.
We allow our participant
to focus so much more on the
playing cards as they learn
so they can register them
so they can recognise them,
rather than looking at us
dealing while doing it.
So for me it would be one,
two, bottom deal, three,
four, five, six, seven, bottom deal,
nine, 10, 11, 12, bottom deal,
14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, bottom deal,
21, 22, 23, 24 we'll let's stop here.
This allowed me to slow
the bottom deal down.
It allowed me to do the bottom deal
so much more comfortably,
so much more lucks
because I know that
everybody's looking here
rather than here
because if they are one step ahead,
if they do now understand at this point,
what these numbers are for,
they're gonna be looking
here on the table,
rather than up here on my
hands to see what am doing.
So it kind of works out perfectly.
At this point if I have to do this three,
position eight, position
13 and position 21.
We know that card of course
if I can turn is over.
Nine, seven, jack, four.
And of course they're in the exact order
in that consecutive order.
By the way, I don't
know if I mentioned this
if we take these out and go
back in time a little bit,
when these were at the bottom of the deck,
don't worry I have a duplicate
of them cooking there
you've been writing these down
kind of in reverse order
to what you see them.
So, on the bottom of the deck
nine, seven, jack, four, right.
But when we write them down,
it's nine, seven, Jack,
four, you understand?
So the bottom playing card
you write that down first.
You don't write the four down
and the jack and the seven,
nope, you go nine, seven, Jack, four,
because when you're dealing with them
in your false dealing with them,
you're putting them in a reverse order
that makes them go
nine, seven, Jack, four.
And that is the trick.
There's so much more that I
can talk about with this trick.
Different variations of dealing
different ways of putting
those playing cards down
a different idea
which allows your
participant to do the deal
and also that becomes a different trick.
But for now in the end that here.
Let's go to that outro funks return.
That was the Perfect Deal.
I hope enjoyed.
If you did enjoy you
gonna love the next video.
The next video follows on kind of
becomes so much more magical.
'Cause we'll talk about more
about these playing cards
and some other playing cards
I haven't even shown anybody yet.
I'm gonna be doing quite a
special deck giveaway very soon
and I'll be back soon with
some more of those tutorials.
Make sure you subscribe
till you get my notification
bell going ding ding ding
every time I drop a new tutorial.
And that's it for now.
That's Charlie Madison,
I am Daniel Madison,
