The Four Pile Ace Trick Magic Card Trick
Hi everybody! Malik the Magic Guy with expertvillage.com. Let me show you another really cool card trick. We're going to take our cards, take them out of the box. Now normally you would have a spectator helping you with this; just for the ease of the video, I'm going to run through this section myself. But you can have a person cut off piles of the deck, and you're going to end up with 4 piles of cards just like this. Now like I said, I'm going to do this section; you can have an audience member or spectator do it. What you want to do is pick up the first pile, and have them move 3 cards to the bottom one at a time, then deal one card on top of each of the other piles. They're going to pick up the next pile. Do the same: move 3 cards, and then put one card on top of each of the piles. Same thing with the third section: we're going to move 3 cards like this, and then put one card on top of each of the piles; and the last one, I move 3 cards just like this, and then put one card on top of each of the piles. And if we do that, we end up with the 4 aces on top of each pile, so that's the 4 pile ace trick. And in just a minute I'm going to show you how to do that.

Explanation of the Four Pile Ace Magic Card Trick
Hi everybody! Malik the Magic Guy for expertvillage.com. Now I'm going to teach you how to do the four pile ace trick I just showed you. So the most important thing is you want to start with your 4 aces on top of the deck. This is a prearrangement, just like I talked about before, a setup. You can keep the cards in the box this way, you can set it up in front of them, but I don't advise doing that until you've been doing card magic for a little while. You can use one of the false cuts I told you about, so that it looks like the cards are now a little bit mixed up, and what you want to do is-you can have an audience member do this-is cut four piles of cards just like this. And really this is a great example of a trick that almost works by itself. Now I'm going to run through this myself, but you can have different audience members do this. You want to have the first pile picked up; this is going to be our last pile, the one with the aces. Okay, when we cut across, this is going to end up being the top of the deck, because we've just cut piles off like that-so this is the important pile, this will be last. We want to pick this pile up first. We're going to tell them to move 3 cards to the bottom 1, 2, 3, and then deal one card on top of each pile; we're going to do the same with each pile. Now if you're working for multiple people, you can have each person do one of these, just like that. We'll do the same thing with the third pile: move 3 cards to the bottom, one on top of each pile. And then the last one, this is what's cool, it's actually going to undo everything that you just did, when we moved the 3 cards to the bottom. That gets rid of the 3 cards that we've just dealt on top of that pile, and then one ace goes on top of each pile just like that. And then the trick is done, and you just show that you've got the 4 aces on top of the deck and that's your trick, that's the four pile ace trick. So practice hard, and you'll amaze your friends and family.
