Tsunami

TSUNAMI involves the discovery of a mentally selected card.

You bet the spectator one hundred dollars you'll find his card and — YOU LOSE!

But then, you turn the tables, find the card and win all the money back!

One of the most ripped-off effects of all time, so it must be good.

Effect: The Spectator shuffles a deck of cards. He cuts to any card and remembers it. The deck is shuffled again and returned to the Magician.

The Magician bets the Spectator $100 that he'll find the card. A game of mental poker starts.

The Magician loses the $100! But then -- suddenly, the tables are turned!

The Magician finds the selected card, ends up with a fantastic poker hand and wins back his money!
