Four jacks - four thieves

This focus was sent to me one of the fans of card games and tricks. It consists in the following. To prepare the focus, 4 jacks are taken from the deck, 3 any cards and 2 aces. 3 any cards in our case are the six, seven and eight of the tambourine.

6, 7 and 8 imperceptibly stacked down stacks with jacks.

After that, the cards are laid out on the palm of your hand (4 jacks) in this way, as shown in the photo, which is lower. Thus 6, 7, and 8 diamonds will be under jacks.

After the cards were laid out, begin the story for the audience: "4 jacks - 4 thieves (show 4 jacks) went to plunder the house (we collect our cards in a pile and gently place it on the common deck of cards face down as shown in the Photos, which is lower, so that the viewer does not have time to notice that you have in your hand not 4 but 7 cards) went to rob the house.

The first went to the basement (we take the first top card from the deck with a shirt up, in our case it will be 6 diamonds, and hide it almost at the very bottom of the deck), the second into the room (hide the second card in the middle of the deck), the third to the kitchen (hide the third Card, also in the middle of the deck), and the fourth stayed up (turn the top card - it's jack).

At this time in the house alarm went off and the police came (let 2 aces and will be the police). The thief who remained to watch in time saw the militia and called his accomplices on the roof of the house (here everything is subject to the conjurer's imagination - you can close the deck with a "magic handkerchief", "conjure", making "magic" passes with your hands or saying "magic words"). Thieves gathered on the roof (turning over the top 3 cards - of course it's jacks) and managed to escape. "
