The Algorithm turns any borrowed phone into the most astonishing piece of mentalism technology your audience has ever encountered. Despite a shuffled deck and randomly drawn cards, the Algorithm predicts card positions and orders without a miss.
Four phases, each more unlikely than the last, The Algorithm concludes with a final phase that genuinely unsettles and leaves your audience speechless.
Four-phase structure: Each phase builds on the last, escalating the impossibility with every round.
Works on a borrowed phone: No app to install in advance. No suspicious setup.
Freely chosen cards: Your audience shuffles the deck and picks the cards without your influence.
Regular deck of cards: Nothing sketchy and no deck switches.
A complete act on its own: Structured, paced, and ready to anchor any set.
Ask a spectator to open The Algorithm directly on their own phone and let them freely shuffle a deck of cards.
PHASE ONE Your spectator picks five random cards face down and enters four of them in The Algorithm, which then reveals the fifth card before it gets turned around!
PHASE TWO Tighter conditions: Same process with four cards this time. The Algorithm still predicts the last card.
PHASE THREE Now, three cards. Two entered. The third revealed without a miss.
PHASE FOUR Your audience just entered a realm that breaks any laws of chance. That’s when you hit them with the kicker: Using The Algorithm, you reveal the order of every single card of the entire deck, with 100% accuracy!

Yves has built a quick, strong, and entertaining piece of magic with one of 20th-century card magic's most surprising methods at its core. I liked it so much that I contributed an alternative way to perform it that's 100% self-working. Use any regular deck and any borrowed phone, with no pairing or apps to download or update. The Algorithm is well designed, fooling, and fun to perform.
This ticks all the boxes for me and is going straight to the top of my ‘A-List’.
