"I appreciated your work (particularly the first part about the Prediction effect which looks excellent) … not only and simply for the work itself but for the passion I found in it. Only with research can Magic improve, live, and survive ... The greatest pleasure in Magic is not only the performance but, above all, the research and the creativity and you are on the right path. Congratulations." - Tony Binarelli
This routine is best suited for performance at the card table, using two or more spectators. The routine may be presented as either a prediction or clairvoyance effect. The prediction effect is very easy and involves no memory work. The clairvoyance effect is more advanced, and requires some basic memorization.
Prediction Effect
The mentalist places three numbered sealed predictions on the table. A full deck of cards is shuffled and spread on the table. The spectator on the right cuts the cards and deals three hands following the standard rules of Texas hold 'em. The three hands are then examined in the showdown, and the mentalist's first prediction is opened and read out by the spectator. The mentalist has correctly predicted the value of each hand, and the mentalist's hand wins.
For the second round, dealing passes to the mentalist and the number of players (real or imagined) is increased to five. The cards are shuffled again, and a second spectator cuts the deck before the cards are dealt. The five hands are examined and the second prediction is opened and read out by the spectator. The mentalist has correctly predicted the values of all five hands, and the mentalist's hand wins.
For the final round, the dealing passes to the player on the mentalist's left. Five hands are again dealt. The spectator then opens and reads out the third prediction. Once again, the mentalist has correctly predicted the value of all five hands, and the mentalist's hand wins!
Clairvoyance Effect
The clairvoyance effect follows the same sequence of rounds. Instead of predictions, the mentalist (who may be genuinely blindfold throughout) describes the hands in detail, including actual values of cards (e.g., "John has a pair of Aces … Bill has zilch … Marty has a pair of Sevens … Sam has a pair of Kings … but I win with an Ace-high straight!"). Again the mentalist always wins.
