The Effect:
The performer displays two packets of four face-down cards. One packet is red-backed and the other is blue-backed. The spectator selects a packet and is asked to imagine that his packet consists of four face-down queens. He then thinks of any one of the four queens. A second spectator is now directed to concentrate on the remaining four-card packet, and, like the first spectator, is allowed to think of a different queen. Now, without touching the cards, the performer causes the two selections to trade places. The performer shows that it is very interesting that the two spectators selected the particular two queens they did because the rest of the cards are all jokers.
