Phil Trick by Trevor Duffy

Phil Deck – The Card With a Name

You ask a spectator to simply think of any card. No force. No restrictions.

After a beat, you say,
"I’m getting the name… Phil. Short for Phillip!"

That gets a laugh but the real magic is just beginning.

You spread the deck and show that every single card has a different name printed on the back. When you turn the deck face up and find the card the spectator thought of, there’s only one name on the back...

Phil.

And it’s the only one.
