1 year agoI’ve done this one before and it’s always worked for me. The one difference I do is after they put the card on top of the deck I give them the deck and tell them they can cut it as many times as they’d like. By cutting the deck it’s incredibly unlikely they’d separate their chosen card and the top card. Plus it makes them think they have more control over things
Wow I love that you did the math! That’s really surprising it gets to 50% relatively quickly how neat. I can definitely say no one ever cut more than 10 times when I tried it but I can certainly see that happening if someone wanted to have a laugh with it
