Year Round Trick

Card Trick
A selected card is found after a series of mixes.

Trick Secret
Before hand, place a joker on the bottom of the deck. Have the spectator pick a card, replace it back on top of the deck, and cut the deck as many times as they would like. Look through the cards to find the joker and cut it to the top. Now ask:

- "How many weeks are in a year?"
(There are 52 weeks) In one pile, count 5 cards out loud for the five in 52, and in another pile, count 2 cards out loud for the 2 in 52. Take the two card group and place it on the five card group and put it all on top of the deck.

- "How many months are in a year?"
(There are 12 months) Count 12 cards on the table. Pick that group up and place it on top of the deck.

- "How many days are in a week?"
(There are 7 days in a week) Count seven cards on the table. Put those cards on top the deck.

- "What is your card?"
Turn over the top card and take a bow.
