You probably saw him do pretty much the same act for Penn & Teller. Some minor edits...

Its not really memorized deck but open index deck and not even really jazzing but rather predetermined routine. But really nice never the less

As far as I've always known "open index" and "memorized deck" are essentially synonymous. Is it a pre-determined routine? Well, yes, for the most part, and audience participation is low (unlike the Blaine video posted earlier), but I think this still qualifies. Early on he has someone name a card, then a number.

The true antecedent here is Billy O’Conner’s Instanto Deck and similar gaffed decks used by Cardini, Jordan, and others. Such a deck does require that the cards be in a known order, but that order need not be a memorized stack. (Although it’s certainly possible that in this case it is.) |

This is a product that Marc sells. It's a Si Stebbins deck with a few little extras.
