Synchronized Revelation

Dani DaOrtiz shares with you a fantastic card revelation that is also a masterclass in teaching a magician to discretely obtain information in real time. The effect begins when the deck is shuffled by the spectator. They take half the deck and then think of any number between one and twenty and deal a pile of cards equal to that number in front of themselves. They look at the card they dealt to; the magician mirrors their actions having another spectator remember a card from their packet. The magician and the spectator further mix their packets, losing their cards in the deck. The magician has the second spectator remove their card from the deck and reinsert it into their pack face up. The two packets are squared and dealt through, and impossibly when you come to the face-up card the thought of card the first spectator selected is in precisely the same position as the second selection in the magician's pack. It’s unbelievable.

 This shouldn't be possible. The deck is shuffled, then casually cut. A random card is chosen from each and yet both end up in the exact same position. So good it fools magicians, yet self-working!
