Method:
Start the trick by presenting three Jacks and make up a
story about them being three best buddies and how they couldn't
stand being apart.
Continue
to rant on on how one day the three amigos were lost in
the desert and the best way to seek help was to go in different
directions. The first one to get help was to come and get
the others, so off they went in their different directions.
Get
the spectator to place one Jack on top of the pack, one
Jack anywhere in the middle and the last Jack on the bottom
of the pack.
Confirm
with the spectator that he is happy that the Jacks are well
separated, then get him to cut the pack ensuring that the
bottom half of the pack is put on top of the other half.
(This
will bring the top and bottom Jack together with the previously
placed Jack)
The
cards are then turned face up from the top off the pack
eventually turning over three Jacks together near the center
to the spectators amazement.
