Count out cards equal to the sum of the dice. Then remove the middle value dice. From the smaller deck, count out cards equal to the sum of the remaining two dice and place the rest of the deck on top. Do this 3 times for the 3 dice they rolled. Have them pick the top card. You can predict which card the spectator has. This is impressive because you could not have predicted the roll of the 3 dice or what the middle value would be. The trick involves a neat mathematical principle dubbed \"Low Down Triple Dealing\" by Colm Mulcahy. I highly recommend his book \"Mathematical Card Magic\" which explains the principle and offers many other magic tricks You can check out my full review of the book here I developed the part in the trick about rolling 3 dice and removing the middle value. Once you understand \"Low Down Triple Dealing\" you can probably figure out the dice part. If you like my videos, you can support me at Patreon Connect on social media.
