Original Specs
In the style of the card game 'snap', the spectator thinks of one of 5 cards. The performer says he is going to place one card down at a time and when they see their card, they have to slam their hand down, trapping their selection. But, by the time they have done this, the performer vows to steal their card out from under their hand. The game is played and although the spectator would swear their hand is on their card, it isn't there! Instead, it is produced from the card box that has been sat on the table from the beginning!
