Forcing Deck

by Enardoe

 (Red Back • Bridge Size)

Want a guaranteed hit that feels like real mind reading? The Enardoe Forcing Deck lets you spread or fan the cards, have someone “freely” choose one, and you already know what they’ll take. It’s the kind of utility deck that turns one good idea into ten strong routines—and it’s perfect when you want maximum reaction with minimal fuss.

These decks use the classic Enardoe / ARRCO-style back design tied to Chicago’s long tradition of close-up magic.

What makes this forcing deck different?

This is a one-way / “50/50 style” force deck:

• 50 cards are the same (your force card)

• Plus one different card on top and one different card on bottom (great for casual handling and showing a “normal-looking” deck)

Card specs (the good stuff)

• Bridge size cards (easy handling—especially for smaller hands)

• Red back with an ARRCO-style design

• Linen finish

• Printed in Belgium

• Not shrink wrapped (as supplied)

• No instructions included (straightforward for experienced performers)

Performance ideas (fast, practical, audience-proof)

Here are a few real-world ways magicians use a force deck like this:

• Prediction in wallet/envelope: They “choose” a card… you show it’s been waiting the whole time.

• Instant mind-reading: “Focus on your card… got it.” You do the magical reveal in an impossible way!

• Comedy sucker-prediction: You’re wrong… you’re wrong again… then you’re impossibly right.

• Multiple-phase routine: Same selection keeps “returning” in increasingly impossible ways.

• Opener for card-to-impossible-location: Force the card, then load it somewhere wild.
