"Salt Card Prediction" (#123)

Salty Cards Prediction (#123)

With nothing more than kicking a deck of cards you can tell which is the chosen card.

Method
Have a shuffled deck of cards placed on the floor. Have a person look through the deck and choose a card. Have him/her place his card on top of the deck. Now have them cut the deck into five piles. (Remember that their chosen card is on the top of the first pile.)
Now, by pointing to the piles have them put the deck back together in a different order.

As you are pointing at the card piles, instructing the audience member to put them back together, you take a pinch of salt and drop it on top of the chosen card as you point to it)

Then, lightly kick the deck of cards with your right foot, slide into the cards to make them glide to the left.

Examine the deck. The place in the deck with the most distance between one card and the next is the chosen card.
OR, just by sliding the cards in one direction you will find that the choosen card will usually be exposed easily----practice it a few times !!
