Welcome to The Force Project: Chapter 2 - Only 52

Dani DaOrtiz, a master illusionist renowned for making seemingly fair selections completely controlled, invites you into the second chapter of his highly anticipated 'Force Project.' In 'Only 52,' Dani dives deep into the art of card forcing, sharing his most cherished methods, principles, and techniques to ensure your audience always lands on the exact card you desire. Prepare to revolutionize your approach to card magic with secrets that are both diabolical and surprisingly accessible.

The Unbelievable Effect: Vanishing & Appearing Card

Imagine this: A deck is thoroughly shuffled by multiple spectators. Another participant silently thinks of a number between one and fifty-two, then counts to that exact position in the deck, remembering their card. Meanwhile, a completely separate, *borrowed* deck is shuffled and taken under a table by a different spectator, who secretly turns any card face-up and loses it back into the pack.

With a dramatic cut of both decks, the magic unfolds. The first spectator names their thought-of card. The magician’s original deck is meticulously spread, revealing a shocking truth: it contains only 51 cards – the named card is unmistakably gone! The borrowed deck is then spread, and there, amongst all the face-down cards, is a single face-up card: the spectator's very own vanished card. It’s an impossible, dual-location mystery that leaves audiences stunned.

Mastering the Deception: How It's Done

As soon as the breathtaking performance concludes, Dani immediately breaks down 'Only 52' step-by-step. This session is not just a refresher for those familiar with Dani's work but also a perfect entry point for newcomers. You'll grasp the core mechanics, the subtle nuances, and the critical details that elevate this routine from impressive to truly mind-blowing. Here, Dani introduces you to his ingenious 'How & Why Force,' a diabolical method for forcing a specific position within the deck with absolute certainty.

The Philosophy of Control: Dani's Card Forces

Beyond the immediate trick, 'Only 52' offers a profound education in the philosophy of forcing. Dani provides a comprehensive explanation of every move, technique, and the psychological underpinnings that make these forces so potent. You'll gain mastery over key techniques, including The Numerical Force, The How & Why Force, The Gag Force, and The Reverse Card In The Fan Force. These powerful tools, while shockingly easy to execute, form the backbone of the 'Only 52' effect, granting you the ability to force a card from a seemingly shuffled deck and precisely control its position in another. This is a seriously powerful piece of magic, guaranteed to fool even the most astute magicians and utterly devastate lay audiences.

The What
The magician’s deck of cards is handed out in packets to multiple spectators who thoroughly shuffle the deck. While this happens, another spectator is asked to think of any number between one and fifty-two. The deck is gathered together and handed to the spectator thinking of a number; they count to the position of the number they are thinking of and remember that card. A second deck is borrowed from a spectator and shuffled. A spectator takes this borrowed deck under the table, and any card they want is turned face up and lost back in the deck. Both decks are cut. The first spectator names their card, and the magician’s deck is meticulously counted through and discovered only to have 51 cards. The borrowed deck is spread, and the only face-up card in the deck is the named card. Even more impossibly, it is discovered that the card is missing from the magician’s deck.

The How
As soon as you have finished with the performance Dani immediately teaches you the effect. You’ll learn this unbelievable routine, how to do it, and the major details that make this effect so powerful. This is a great refresher for anyone who has already seen the video and perfect for first-time viewers to jump in and start practicing. Here is where you are introduced to the How & Why force. A diabolical little way to force a position.

The Why
This is where the real education begins. Dani delivers a complete explanation of the moves, the trick, and the philosophy behind it all. This is a detailed breakdown, including his work on The Numerical Force, The How & Why Force, The Gag Force, and The Reverse Card In The Fan Force. When combined, these form the backbone of the effect Only 51, and they are shockingly easy to do. Dani is giving you the ability to force a card from an apparently shuffled deck and then control the position of a card in another deck after you sneak it in. This is a seriously powerful effect that will fool magicians and destroy lay people.

The Force Project is a year-long course in learning to make your spectators believe their selections are fair even though you have total control. Dive into the second lesson and an amazing trick that has a thought of card vanishing from one deck and appearing in another. Welcome to The Force Project with Dani DaOrtiz.
