Mind-boggling Card Trick: REVEALED

From the creator

Here it is, all the maths and logic behind the Mind-Boggling Card Trick. Watch the original card trick here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aNpGxZ_1KXU The earliest record I can find of the same dealing mechanic being used is by magician Karl Fulves. The swapping cards bit was added by magician (and computer science professor!) Peter McOwan. I actually wrote a maths magic book with Peter, you can download it for free. http://mathematicalmagic.com/ Here is the Vsauce Math Magic video I mentioned and was mentioned in: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ObiqJzfyACM Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal comic about a science magician for which Zach used me to generate a pseudo-random name: http://smbc-comics.com/index.php?id=4002 Everyone should go to a BAHfest: http://www.bahfest.com/ Response videos by PappaMoe and Juan Meleiro: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i3Cd1lRAAdM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2QKcaYbPjo4 The 27-card and 49-card tricks: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l7lP9y7Bb5g https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G_OuIVOGDr8 Prepare your mind to be boggled. This is an incredible card trick which is completely self-working. This trick relies only on the mathematical properties of a deck of cards. I will put up a complete solution video explaining the mechanics behind the trick soon! Want your own distorted skew dice like I used in the video?
