Hey there, I've been a magician for about a year now, and the first magic trick I ever learned, was David Blaines here then there, or "the sandwich trick" as a lot of late people call it.
I actually just learned a new production for the reveal, and it's reinvigorated my feelings for this trick.
However, the reason why I hardly do this trick anymore
is because almost eight out of ten times when I put the card in the spectators hand and tell them to put their hand over it,
They would ask if they could turn it over, or just straight up turn it over to check without asking.
As a question from a magician, to other magicians,
What patter, or misdirection, or tips, can you impart upon me to stop a spectator or their friends from telling them to check the card?
