Scarne, the world's number-one card wizard, reworked classic card tricks to eliminate the need for sleight-of-hand. Scarne was often proclaimed by experts, magicians and editors of the time as the greatest card manipulator of all time.
He was an expert at poker, blackjack, backgammon and any other game played at casinos. Scarne's famous card trick was "Scarne's Aces". Taking a spectator's shuffled deck of cards and then cutting to all four aces. The celebrated cardplayer explains rules and winning strategy for poker, rummy, black jack, pinochle, and other games.
There are thousands of books relating to poker, blackjack, roulette and baccarat, including strategy guides, statistical analysis, psychological studies, and much more. In card tricks sometimes there are many steps involved. Also, there may be a need for a setup before the trick, and sometimes even an elaborate setup.
Sometimes this is ok, but also sometimes this can be difficult. Also, this might require you to carry your deck or props around with you, which can be burdensome for some. One final obstacle with self-working card tricks are that many require an audience member to handle the cards and do the work.
Sometimes this can be a problem because people will not understand what you are asking them to do, or someone might drop the deck or mishandle the cards. Just know that lay people are usually not good at handling cards.
You have to really have good audience management skills, and even then sometimes anything can happen. You can learn self working card tricks here. One of the best self-working and easy card tricks might be Gemini Twins, and it involves no setup.
Another classic self working trick is the Out of this World card trick by Paul Curry. The spectator separates a deck of card into red and blacks by dealing through them into two separate piles. Here are a couple of easy sleight of hand card tricks once you get a little more comfortable with the easier tricks. You may also want to consider memorized deck work or a Mnemonica stack as a beginning magician looking for more advanced tricks, but that you can still perform with minimal sleight of hand.
One sleight of hand card trick that is probably the most simple to do, is the reversed card trick. There are different variations of this trick, but they all have the same plot. A selected card is placed facedown back into the deck, and the card reverses itself magically in the deck. The creator of this video calls it the easiest card trick ever and it is pretty easy. It does use a very minimal easy sleight of hand of a false shuffle retaining the top four cards.
This is a variation of an old famous trick where the spectator cuts the deck four times, there is a certain procedure of dealing cards off each pile, and then all four aces are found on top.
This one uses some minimal and easy sleight of hand to shuffle the cards in the beginning. The Glide is a good sleight to begin learning for beginning magicians, since it is an easier form of the Double Lift. One way you can perform easy card tricks when you are a beginner, is to get a trick deck of cards. You still have to know how to perform with the cards and how to present the tricks well. But usually they require little to no sleight of hand and so they allow you to perform tricks faster when you are starting out.
Some of these decks are Svengali decks , Invisible decks, stripper decks and marked decks. You can get these at most any magic dealer or online. Usually the decks will take a lot of the moves out of card magic, making it look like you do something much harder than you actually do. The only downside is you must have one of the special decks on you, and the decks are not examinable or able to be handled by audience members, except with marked decks and with stripper decks under the right audience management.
Also, you are usually limited to the tricks that are only able to be done with those decks. The exception is the stripper deck and marked decks. Although with a stripper deck, if you are doing sleight of hand, it can make it much harder if not impossible to do.
The Invisible Deck is one of the most powerful tricks in all magic. It might even be the best easy card trick there is. But you can only do the one trick with the deck, or a variation of that trick.
And you cannot do any normal tricks with that deck afterwards. It also cannot be examined. It helps if you already prove yourself beforehand as being good at magic, before doing a trick with a special deck. This will build your credibility. Otherwise, the audience may just assume that you are using a special deck. John Mendoza used to say that when he performed one of his normal tricks, he would.
