► Learn more tricks and magic at 52kards.com ▼ Video Description: ----------------------------------- The Bluff Pass is hands down one of my favorite card controls. It may feel risky or bold at first, but after you try it a few times you will realize how convincing this card control really is. It is a sleight that allows you to control a card second from the top, while making it appear to be lost in the middle. In 1928, the move was created by Frederick Montague, who also gave us the term "Bluff Pass". The Bluff Pass, among other moves, was created as as alternative to the pass; an endeavor popular in the 1930s. The original source is Westminster Wizardry which was published in 1928. Tommy Tucker later developed refinements to move that more resembled how we see the Bluff Pass today. He published his version of the move in "What Next!" in 1936.

FIGURED out a good way to make it really look like you took half the cards. If you hold the deck a bit higher off of your palm when you grab the one card you can just drop the deck flat on your palm to make it look like it got smaller @52kards

Hi Asad, I just wanted to say your tutorials are probably the most professional, clean and easy to follow tutorials on the web. I do however have a request / suggestion. It would be cool if, during the tutorial you showed a clip of yourself using the sleight in a real life situation. I personally I would benefit from seeing how a move is performed for a live audience. Thanks Asad Keep up the good work :)

One thing, unless this is being used to force the second card, you may want to just pull off the top half of the cards where they stopped, and give them the card and then replace the top half, giving them time to look at their card and then ask them to put it back and now do the move bluff. This way too they just suspect you are doing the same movement, which they have gotten used to. Also just a little less time with that one card in your hand.

That's a killer tip! Thanks

i like that you film the tutorial in this view! it' s a lot easier to learn than the views in other videos. thanks!

Suggestion.. Always show the trick first at normal speed before explaining.. so we don't have to sit thru the full tutorial to find out how what you are showing us.. thanks.

He usually does but for the bluff pass you need an extra person to preform it.

every time I watch anyone of your videos, I always learn something new, thanks

That’s such a nice subtlety to extend the fingers up. I think it’s all the little things that the subconscious pics up that you might not even notice that really makes the difference!!!

I can't believe I actually fooled somebody with this move! Nice tutorial, great teaching. You just got a sub.

So cool, I appreciate your lessons, you are the GOAT of teaching card tricks!

Great vid! I love the Bluff Pass. It could be used as a great phase in an ambitious card routine.

Wow - this is REALLY clever, I love it.

I am so happy, i try this control and its works!!! It is revolution!!! So clean!!! I love you man!!!

Great control, i like it so much.

Wow this is really convincing and it works really well. Just goes to show how easily the lay person can be fooled.

Very classy pass , would be awesome to see a live performance of this

Dude, I've watched your pen spins, coin tricks and card tricks, finger exercises, etc... I still wonder how you know so much stuff. You must be a blaze at parties!

When I was watching this I was like "This is never going to work" Then I tested it out on my dad and it worked perfectly! I am abselutly going to use this in the future

Daryl used this movie in his ambitious card routine!This is a badass move!!!

Awesome control! Ill have to start using this! Thanks Asad!

Nice video!!! :D And I really want the Monarch deck, it looks really nice.

I freaking love his videos! So much that I just uploaded my FIRST flourish tutorial, I am really loving Magic!

I love this it worked for five times in a row

I've used this a couple of times now and it works wonderfully. I forgot to move my fingers higher and the spectator didn't even notice the full deck sitting in my hand. Great deception. Thanks Asad!

"it just works" best description ever =3 haha but i learn a lot from you man your awesome

Wow that IS a Bold control.Never seen it before. That's Brilliant. I mostly use the Marlo Tilt, but I'm gonna try this. If this is convincing, and I think it will be on a lot of people. Gonna be nice. tyvm.

Great control to use for Here Then There. It's easy to do smoothly while they look at their card and puts it second from the top.

Learned this from Xavior, amazing i use it all the time

Xavier even showed the 'super-bluff pass', where he doesn't even lift the top card; It's the same procedure, but you swing your right hand in towards your chest as if holding the top stock (but your hand is empty), then come back with the right hand and riffle half the deck after the chosen card is replaced on the deck. It works!

Man the second part of that vid where he does it without out any card is hilarious. It seems to be all about confidence, conviction, and allowing for a little messiness (D. Madisons "dirty b*tch theory" or "Soap theory").

@@lanceseaman88 The best part is that, it actually works, i've done it manny times, its crazy how obvious it is that i'm more important then the cards, my voice is higher then my hands

Well this is a good idea ! And the tips with the fingers or the litlle part of the deck you take at the end are good convincer... I'll use it and then I'll remove the first card showing that their card is not on the top. Thanks a lot

That actually works great good vid thanks

Fantastic tutorial sir

Extend fingers! Great tip! Never occurred to me!

Man you are great, it works pretty well

good video! I want to add the subtlety of Roger Klause that he taught me to bevel the front edge of the deck so that it looks thinner from the front.

Nice tutorial good detail

Great control

Cool, can't wait to try this out on someone.

I used it and it REALLY works!

awesome worked first time for me

Asad is the greatest cardician/teacher on KZread!

That finger extension is legit!

Emmanuel Trikilis You haven't seen how Daryl taught this.

thanx the reminder. a good technique indeed.

That's genius. Like the Marlo tilt.

Awesome. Thanks.

This would be great to use with two spectators; control the card to the 7th position and then say you want another spectator to select one also, but do the 7th position force. Gonna try this

I love this controll so much its da best

ooooh my brain hurts from this. Its such an easy thing to do and it will totally fool anyone. When you showed the riffle at the end I allmost got noseblood and screamed out loud. I am soooooo going to use this one. My god I will enjoy the shit out of every second im doing this=) Small nerdgasm over here

You are the best teacher ever!! I rarely get things this fast! Respect!!!

Very clean :)

Thanks man!!

Mr. Mullica adds a variation: he actually cuts the deck in half, and upon having the card returned, instead of adding the upper half to the top of the lower half, he turns the whole deck upside down and adds the upper half to the bottom of the lower half. Now that is bluff!

great vid m8

Fucking best video I have ever seen! Keep it up brotha! So proud of this channel! Keep those videos coming!!! Best magic around asad

I have used this move for many years, 40 plus, and it is a gem. Never even close to being seen.

Nice man

Haha i like this smart bluff. Great job. Keep uploading

Thanks now I know another control

That finger subtlety is smart.

amazing better than what i learned

Very good

really nice trick

Great tutorial, thank you! Off topic question...I see a lot of magicians with a ring on thier index finger as you have. I'm very new to card magic and magic in general...Is there something to that or just a coincidence that many magicians like to wear rings on thier index finger? Just curious... Thanks again...

Thank you! And you can do the dribble without reaching that half ot the deck... You just lift that half with your left thumb, like Shirley A cut...

I LOVE IT

You have a lot of card controls like this one, but can you give me some ideas for a reveal? Your tutorials are very good.

I actually let them take it out by riffling down and then when they say stop,I ask them to take the card and while they're taking it out and memorizing, I just drop the rest of the cards except the last card and ask them to put it back in the middle and slap that first card on it.

I WISH I Can like it twice, thanks

we are so easily fooled!!! I bet you could even say "here is where i'm fooling you; put your card in; here is where I fool you again." and probably still get away with it.

new to this channel and card handling as well! just a quick question, what type of cards are best for handling, plastic or paper? thanks

very good

Hey Asad, for contest giveaways next time can you post a video on who wins or put it in the description or the comments section below? Thanks!

I think Brad Christian mentions dropping the deck in the palm so fingers extend more above the deck in one of his DVDs from Ellusionist.

@Thuraya Taha, yes, I do this without a pinky break as well, do whatever is comfortable for you.

I suggest a thumb riffle to ask spect to stop you at any point for his card selection at first to mimick the later on riffle before the false pickup . This way , the spect. is seeing the same handling. And another subtlety, tell spect. to memorize his card just as you openly show them that you're riffling to the center and actually pick up half the pack at an angle so they can literally see the pack , then place it down at the same instance that you now only have thetop card in hand and say " go head, put your card here " ...

Very nice explanation! Great job sir!

Good move

I knew this control but is the best, its sooo fucking good and you can do it easily!

nice video! :) btw could you tell me where did you buy the mat??

oh my god this is perfect for the biddle trick.

First time I saw this trick was with Wayne Houchin! ^^

Great!

Ellusionist suggested that you bend/buckle the top card in your right hand slightly, to create illusion of having half deck in your hand... I loke this one and side steal.... Cheers

Impressive

If I had to choose, this would have to be my favorite card control. ESP to control it to the 2nd position - significantly like it more than the marlo tilt. The reason is bc w/ the marlo tilt, no matter how you choose to do it and no matter how convincing, you as the magician are touching their card. So if it comes back to the top, even if the audience has no clue what you did, they figure you did "something." With this move though, the spectator genuinely believes they chose where in the middle the card went - so in the ACR as an i.e., when it comes to the top right after, that alone is an amazing moment. Beautiful Control.

Interesting! I still prefer Marlo, its good when do some tricks for my kids or in rooms with less lights.

I thought it easy and it is easy and it's pretty convincing

The rpm control is my personal favorite

Hey Asad, I've always wondered where i can buy that mat thing you use to spread the cards around (the green mat in the video).

Now that I know how it works I'm shocked to realize how often I've seen this move before but didn't notice what the magician was actually doing 😂

Where is this close up pad from, It looks great!

Thank u

I actually thought he picked up half the deck at 1:30
