"Convergence is the best card to number I have ever seen. Its so easy to do yet so deceptive. Great job, Cameron." -- Bob Tucker
"Love it! It totally lives up to the description on your site." -- Tim Eden
Cameron Francis brings you an amazing card at number effect that plays huge and is extremely practical!
Effect:
The magician proposes an experiment in fate as he introduces two decks of card; one red and one blue. The blue deck is placed in front of a spectator and the magician never touches it again. The red deck is removed from its case. The magician shows that boldly written on the back of each card is a different number. A second spectator then names ANY card (Really!). We'll say it's the Two of Diamonds. This card is removed from the deck. Another card is randomly selected. Let's say the number on the back of this card is 29.
The spectator now uncases the blue deck. He counts down 29 cards... The 29th card is the Two of Diamonds!
We've got to be up front here, "Convergence" is not a "Holy Grail ACAAN". It is, however, an incredibly strong and practical effect which plays HUGE for lay people.

STEPHEN TUCKER'S CONVERGENCE1 (A sort of one deck version of convergence)
That wild and wacky guy Stephen Tucker took "Convergence", twisted it about, and came up with a very cool version which only uses one deck!... Sort of...
Effect:
You pull a laminated "prediction card" from your pocket and ask the spectator to name any card. Let's say it's the Four of Spades. You triumphantly turn the prediction card around, showing... a card with all 52 cards printed on it (bad joke!).
You then remove a deck from your pocket and spread the cards. Half are normal and half have numbers on their backs. The normal half is placed aside. The spectator selects a card with a number on its back. Let's say the number is 11. The spectator picks up the normal half and deals 11 cards onto the table. The 11th card is the Four of Spades!
