Open a close-up set with seven magical moments in about 70 seconds. In Jonathan Royle’s Ultimate Ambitious Card Trick Routine, the Two of Hearts repeatedly jumps from the bottom of a five-card packet to the top, then the cards transform into a royal flush.

The quick pace makes this a direct way to introduce yourself at a table or group. Royle says he has performed the routine professionally since 1989 and uses it as an opener.

• Seven magical moments: Repeated card appearances build to a final transformation.
• Unexpected finish: The five Two of Hearts change into the Ten, Jack, Queen, King, and Ace of Spades.
• Cards shown on both sides: The royal flush is shown to be normal on both sides.
• Quick reset: Royle says it takes split seconds and can be done in front of the audience.
• Mixed-media download: Includes a PDF, 45 full-color photographs, and a step-by-step training video lasting 6 minutes and 13 seconds.

Royle first shared the routine in Magigram magazine around 1990, and it later appeared in his book Original Magic. Add this fast-moving card opener to your close-up set when you want to move from a surprising sequence to a memorable poker-themed reveal.
