1) I Have It
Gives the appearance of the card vanishing and then reappearing back on top of the deck.
The Trick:
Hold a normal deck in your hand. Put down 3 piles of any amount of cards. Keeping a decent sized deck left in your hand (about 20 cards).
Tell a member of the audience to pick a card off of one of the 3 piles and place it back to the top of one of the 3 piles.
While the audiences are watching the person do this, palm a card and look at the card palmed in your hand from the remaining deck.
When they have put the card back place your hand on top of the deck and say "Shall I hit the cards like this" (putting the palmed card in your hand on top of there card).
"Or like this" (touch it with your finger). When they chose hit all 3 piles that way. Showing your empty hand to them after each pile.
Then say "I am going to move your card to another deck". Get the card that you placed on top of their card on another deck. Then pick up the other two decks placing the deck with there card on top of the other in your hand.
Then say "Did you keep your eye on your card?". They should say yes.
Say "Please show it to me". When they turn over the card that they think is their card proclaim "I HAVE IT!" and present the card.

2) Number Magic
1 Standard Card Deck with all Tens, Jacks,
How the Trick Appears:
Using math you figure out two cards that a person has chosen
The Trick:
Have someone shuffle the cards. Take a group of cards and hold them in your hand, spread out in a fan shape. Ask him/her to choose a card from among them. Tell the person to remember it and then to put it back in the deck.
Give the person a piece of paper and pencil if they are not that good at doing math in their head, or remembering a few numbers at a time.
Ask them to double the value of the card they picked, and then to add 5.
Now have them multiply that number by 5. Tell them to remember this number.
Instruct them to look at another card in the deck, and to add its value to the total that they had computed before. They are to tell you the final total of everything.
In your head, subtract 25 from the total. The two digits you get are the same as the two cards they chose.
Example: they choose a Six (6), then a Three (3).
6 (doubled) = 12 plus 5 = 17. Multiply times 5 = 85.
Three added to total = 88. You subtract 25 = 63.
They picked a Six and a Three!
Notes: Aces are counted as "1"

3) One to Ten
This is a moderately simple to learn and implement trick...with little practice you can master it with ease.
The Trick:
Ask someone to think of a number between 1 and 10. Have this person shuffle the deck, and count down to the number he/she thought of and remember that card. The cards are to be kept in the same position...not shuffled around during this counting; just counted. While the person is doing this, you can turn your back so that you can not see what they are doing.
After they have finished you turn around, take the deck and place it behind your back. Count off 19 cards, reversing their order, and place them back on the top of the deck.
Bring the deck back in front of you and ask the person the number from 1-10 that they originally thought of. Begin your count with that number, dealing the cards out one at a time. When you reach 20 cards let that person name their card as you turn it over.
