Twin Forecast

Here is a simple double prediction effect that requires little help or set-up.

The mentalist makes a prediction on a slip of paper that is then folded and placed in a glass tumbler on the table.

A Spectator is now shown a pack of playing cards, face up and requested to think of any one of the cards that he sees. The spectator names the card he is thinking of which the mentalist then proceeds to remove from the pack. A second prediction is now written and placed in the glass by the mentalist. The spectator is now handed the pack face down and told to thoroughly shuffle and cut them. Now, the spectator is requested to turn over the top card of the shuffled pack and to place it to one side. The two prediction slips are now opened and read and it is seen that the mentalist has mysteriously predicted in advance the two cards freely selected by the spectator.

You are supplied with a special deck of cards (Original Bicycle brand) and written instruction, which clearly explains how to perform this effect.

Use your own pen and paper to write your prediction and of course arrange a glass tumbler on your performance table to place your predictions.
