How to Perform the Ace Party

Four random piles are made from a shuffled and cut deck. When each pile is turned over, the top card is revealed to be an Ace. This is a very easy trick to perform. This can be performed with a regular deck of cards, though it is much easier to do with a Stripper Deck. This tutorial is for using a stripper deck.

    • 1

      Learn how Stripper Decks work by reading my tutorial on them from this website. The basic gist is that whenever a card is rotated 180 degrees and placed back in the deck, it will slightly protrude, making it easy to locate and control.

    • 2

      Reverse the orientations of the four Aces before the trick starts. This will allow you to feel them protruding throughout the deck.

    • 3

      Shuffle and cut the deck, being sure to end up with an Ace on top of the deck.

    • 4

      Starting with the top card (Ace), place the first thirteen cards in a face down pile.

    • 5

      Repeat Steps #3 and #4 three more times until you have four piles of thirteen.

    • 6

      Turn each pile over to reveal the aces on top. It will seem as if you randomly made four piles of cards from a very shuffled deck, but somehow an ace ended up on top of each pile.
