Ace of Spades is chosen as the selected card. Return this card back to the deck. Do a table cut trick of the deck so that this selected card is brought to the top of the deck. After the selected card is placed at the top of the deck give it a few shuffles and cut but keep it on the top only. Do a double turnover so that another card comes on the top of this selected card. Reverse this new card over our selected card while making sure that nobody sees it. Perform this trick by bringing the deck close to your chest, and once hidden with your hands simply turn over to cover it. The viewers are able to see the card that is placed at the bottom of the deck. This is an opportunity for you to remove the last 2 cards of the deck with your thumb. Perform this action so that no one sees it. Bring these 2 cards to the bottom of the deck using double undercut move.
