The Use of Marked Cards in Card Magic

marked cards magic

The use of marked cards in card magic is an extremely effective and versatile tool for magicians. Marked decks can help you open up new opportunities for your tricks, as well as act as a failsafe in case something goes wrong with the effect. They can also make a trick more difficult, so it’s important to know how to use them effectively and safely.

First, you need to find a deck with markings that are easy to read and decipher. If you have a deck with tiny or cryptic markings, that can be very difficult to read when performing and may lead to people realizing that you are using a marked deck.

A good marked deck should have markings that are large enough so that they can be easily read at a glance. This is especially important when you’re performing with a group of spectators or even a single spectator.

Second, you need a deck that is made of quality stock that is durable and flexible. This means that the markings on the back of the cards won’t tear, chip, or discolor.

Finally, you need a deck that is easy to shuffle. This is especially important when you’re doing a trick with a stacked deck of cards that uses the shuffle effect.

There are many different types of cards available for magicians to use in their performances, but Bicycle-branded decks are the best. These decks are printed on Elite Stock from the United States Playing Card Company and have a traditional cut that makes them very easy to shuffle.

They also come with three downloads that will teach you how to get the most out of your deck and some fantastic card tricks to perform with it.

In addition to their excellent appearance and feel, these cards are also very affordable and will give you years of enjoyment. They are available in several different packs and will be shipped to you directly from the manufacturer, so they’re sure to arrive quickly and in great condition.

The backs of the cards are designed to hide the markings, so they won’t be noticeable to the naked eye. This is because these cards are marked with luminous ink that is only visible through a red filter lense. This allows magicians and poker players to have a huge advantage over their opponents.

Luminous ink is a special type of invisible ink that burns onto the back of a card, making it invisible to the naked eye but visible with a red filter lense. This makes it much easier to see the markings on the back of a red-backed card when performing magic with it, and is particularly useful for magicians who are performing close-up, table hopping or walk-around sets.

This is one of the most powerful tools for magicians to have in their arsenal. It’s a great way to open up new opportunities for your performances and to help you do more strong card magic than ever before!
