One of the stock magic tricks. At its simplest, the magician invites an audience member to "pick a card, any card" out of a deck of cards, and memorize which card it is. The card is then placed back in the deck, which is shuffled, then the magician picks out a card, displays it, and says "Is this your card?" It's rarely done now without some extra decoration, like the card appearing to leap out of the deck of its own accord, or disappear from the deck and appear in the audience member's pocket, or the correct card number and suit being written in an envelope that was sealed before the trick started. As with Saw a Woman in Half, the real trick to this trick is well enough known that fictional depictions may feel free to discuss it. The clever part is not where it appears to be: it's not that the magician has a secret way of detecting which card the mark has selected, it's that the magician has a way (a technique called the Magician's Force) of making sure the mark picks the card he wants them to pick. In fiction, the bare-bones version is a favourite of amateurs trying to impress somebody — and they almost always fail to get the right card at the end. The would-be magician may be shown flagrantly sneaking a look at the card before putting it back in the deck (which doesn't always prevent him from subsequently identifying the wrong card at the end anyway). Another common way for the trick to fail is for the would-be magician to be caught using a deck containing 52 copies of a single card. Another common fictional twist is for the card to turn out to not be a playing card. Examples |

On Gilmore Girls, Rory is pressed into service tutoring Brilliant, but Lazy Jess, who is at risk of repeating his junior year. He doesn't much are for the tutoring and just wants to use it as an excuse to spend time with her. He tries this trope as she's quizzing him on something. Annoyed, she takes the whole deck and throws it on the floor. He remarks that this makes the trick a little harder. | |

Kevin & Kell: In the 2022-01-29 strip, for the stage magic-themed wedding of Edgar Carnassial and Miranda Hutch, Miranda asks her dads (biologically her uncle and his husband) to do this... then proceeds to subvert most of the trope by revealing that instead of putting the cards back, whichever of them drew the high card won the first dance with her (she loved them both so much that she had to choose randomly, and this was the method). | |

Now You See Me has several of them: Daniel's opening scene, where the girl picks a card - and Daniel makes it appear in lights on the side of a building. During a plane trip, the Interpol agent tries it with Dylan, and fails as the selected card winds up in the lap of the guy next to her. During their show in New Orleans, Jack has someone pick a card. Once a card is selected, he has another audience member hold a pen up. He shoots the cards at the person in the audience, with the selected card impaling on the pen. |

Live and Let Die. Solitaire is a fortune teller employed by the Big Bad who can read the future in her tarot cards. When she first meets James Bond she invites him to pick a card, which turns out to be The Fool (Bond has just gotten captured thanks to his own overconfidence, so it's not like the cards are wrong). However Bond then picks a second card: The Lovers ("Us?"). Later Bond tricks Solitaire into sleeping with him using this trope, using a stacked deck in which Bond has replaced every card with The Lovers. | |

In Family Guy, Peter attempts to do this and fails miserably, reduced to pulling out card after card and asking the subject if he got it right. | |

The Mentalist: There has been at least one instance of Patrick Jane pulling this trick by somehow slipping the card into the victim of the week's pocket. | |

On Friends Joey attempted this trick, but he was laughably bad at it. He thought he was taking a glance at it so fast that no one could see. This, of course, didn't fool anyone, but they politely didn't say anything. Watch the scene.. Another episode featured Joey having Chandler select a card and, with Chandler still holding the card, pulling another one from the deck and saying "Is this your card?" Rather than point out that he's still holding his card Chandler just says "...yes" |

Doctor Who New Adventures: The Doctor does this to amuse the People of the Worldsphere when he wants to take a break from the heavy plot of The Also People. The People may be Sufficiently Advanced Aliens, but they're always intrigued by novel forms of entertainment. | |
