Hi all,
Gabi Pareras was truly an interesting card magician. Unfortunately a lot of his stuff was never published or is available in Spanish only. I'm looking for a description of a specific trick, where he shows five cards ace to five and puts them in order on the table (as it appears), but when he shows the last card, it is not the five but the ace and the cards are actually sorted the other way around than initially seen. A vide of this trick can be seen here: https://www.facebook.com/prestoalacarta/......6593266/ (it is the first really short trick in the video) While the method might just be a single triple lift and that's it, Is that trick anywhere published? Happy for any pointers you might have. Thanks |

This is the first phase of One to Five in the Classic Magic of Larry Jennings.

This trick was part of one of the Masterclasses from John Carey. Sorry can't recall which one. I do remember that a remark by the performer during the performance, being an important psychological element in the deception.

In David Williamson's "Sleight School", there was a class on the magic of Gabi Pareras, there you will find the explanation of the effect in english.

PS: I believe Fu-Manchu was the actual creator of the original effect

Thank you all. Sleight School was a good recommendation. There is a full English explanation of an extended version of the Attention Test in the Gabi Pareras Tribute Seminar.
