I lost all my magic in a house fire and trying to replace some of it. One trick that I am looking for is a pair of jumbo decks (not complete) and one has random series of cards and the other are all one card but also have another card all of one suit with roughing solution on it so when you show the crowd, it all looks like the 3 of hearts, but when a person picks a card they take end up taking a different card (like the King of spades). You show the audience and the person picked from the audience your deck of cards. They see they are all different. You then show the audience the deck of cards that the spectator will pick from and the audience sees all 3 of hearts (thinking the spectator can only pick a 3 of hearts). You pick a card from the normal deck and tell everyone that you are going to predict what card the spectator selects. They see you go for the 3 of hearts, but you take the King of Spades which is right on top of the 3 of hearts and you hide the selection from everyone. The spectator then selects their card from the one way deck and because they have all 3 of hearts, (with the king of spades on top of each 3 of hearts with roughing solution on them) they think the spectator is selecting the 3 of hearts but you hand them a king of spades. When they show their card, the audience is surprised to see the King of spades since they saw all 3 of hearts and expecting you to have the 3 of hearts, you also show the king of spades.

Does anyone know the name of that trick or where I can purchase it. I can't seem to find it but I don't recall the name of it.

This is a great effect by the late, great Billy McComb. It is a real crowd pleaser!
