MIRACLES WITH THE BW INSTANT MEMORIZED DECK

Principle of the

Boris Wild

Instant

Memorized Deck

TECHNIQUE

As it is the case with other memorized decks on the market, the BW

Instant Memorized Deck allows you to:

- Know the exact position of a given card in the deck;

- Know which card is located at a particular position in the deck.

Why should you consider adopting this particular system, when

there are already so many other clever arrangements in print on the

market, who profess the same features?

Consider that this particular arrangement can be assimilated in not

6 months, or 6 days, or even 6 hours (!), but in 15 minutes. Many

may do so in 6 minutes! Members of the underground scene have

already dubbed this the "super-easy card memorization technique".

WHATYOU NEED

A regular deck.

QUICKSETUPOF THE BW INSTANT MEMORIZEDDECK

To quickly set up the BW Instant Memorized Deck, do as follows:

. Sort the cards by suit and then in numerical order with the cards

in four face up piles with Aces on top of each

. Arrange the piles from left to right in the CHaSeDorder: Clubs,

Hearts, Spades and Diamonds.

. Now cut the Clubs pile to bring the 4 of Clubs on top. The order

becomes from top to bottom 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10,J, Q, K, A, 2, 3,

. Cut the Hearts pile to have the 3 on top,

. Cut the Spades pile to have the 2 on top,

. The Diamonds pile remains with the Ace on top.

Then proceed to assemble the deck by picking with your right hand

one face up card from the Clubs pile and place this card face up in

your left hand. This process is continued from left to right with the

Hearts, Spades, Diamonds then again back to the Clubs until all

cards are in your left hand.

Your deck in now ready!

MIRACLES WITH THE BW INSTANT MEMORIZED DECK

In order to use the BWInstant Memorized Deck, you just need

to follow the three steps below:

First: Remember the Suit Values:

. Diamonds = 0

BASIC WORKOUT FOR THE BW INSTANT MEMORIZED DECK

THE RULES

First Rule: What card is at a given position in the deck?

If someone calls out a number from 1 to 52, what card is in

that position?

. Spades

= 5

. Hearts

= 10

. Clubs

= 15

The mathematical rule is the same for all numbers and the best way

to understand it is by practicing the examples that follow.

. A spectator calls out "21". Remember the number, and succes-

sively add 0, 5, 10, and 15 to it until a multiple of 4 is obtained.

21 + 0 = 21; 31 is not a multiple of 4. Go on;

21 + 5 = 26; 26 is not a multiple of 4. Go on;

21 + 10 = 31; 31 is not a multiple of 4. Go on;

21 + 15 = 36; 36 is a multiple of 4, STOP!

15 is the value for Clubs, therefore the 21st card is a Club.

To discern the value, divide by 4 the multiple obtained: 36

divided by 4 is 9; therefore, the card at the 21st position is the

9 of Clubs!

. A spectator calls out "38".Again, remember the number, and add

successively0, 5, 10, and 15 to it until a multiple of 4 is attained.

38 + 0 = 38; 38 not a multiple of 4. Go on;

38 + 5 = 43; 43 not a multiple of 4. Go on;

38 + 10 = 48; 48 is a multiple of 4, STOP!

10 is the Heart value, therefore the 38th card is a Heart.

Dividing 48 by 4, we get twelve; twelve represents a Queen.

Thus, the 38th card is the Queen of Hearts.

The mnemonic "hook" which I use to commit the progression to

memory is extremely simple; I remember "5".That's the extent of it!

Building on this concept, note that:

. Spades has one sharp point, so:

1 x 5 =

. A Heart has two ventricles, so:

2 x 5 = 10

. A Club has three leaves, so:

3 x 5 = 15

. You can draw the pip of a Diamond within a "0" (or you need

to make a check with a lot of zeros if you want to buy a dia-

mond i). So: 0 x 5 = 0

Second: Memorize the multiples of 4 until 64

That means: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40, 44, 48, 52, 56,

60 and 64.

1 x 4 =

2 x 4 =

3 x 4 =

4 x 4 =

5 x 4 =

6 x 4 =

7 x 4 =

8 x 4 =

9 x 4 =

10 x 4 =

llx4=

12 x 4 =

13 x 4 =

14 x 4 =

15 x 4 =

16 x 4 =

. This time, consider "7". Remember the number, and add suc-

cessively 0, 5, 10, and 15 to it until a multiple of 4 is attained.

7 + 0 = 7; 38 not a multiple of 4.

7 + 5 = 12; 12 is a multiple of 4. STOP!

Therefore the card is a Spade. (5 corresponds to Spades)

Dividing the multiple of 4 by 4 02 divided by 4) gives 3; the

value of the card is 3.

The card in the 7th position is the 3 of Spades.

Third: You will need to memorize two mathematical rules.

One rule will help you find a card at a position. The other rule will

permit you to name the card at a position.

. Should the spectator call out a number which you immediately

recognize to be a multiple of 4, the card will be a Diamond.

40 is called out: 40 divided by 4 is 10. 10 of Diamonds!

52 is called out: 52 divided by 4 is 13. 13 stands for the King.

King of Diamonds!

N.H.: Tbesame mathematical rule worksJar all the numbers, but an

adjustment must be madeJar 6 oj them. Tbesecases are numbers: 41

- 45 - 46 - 49 - 50 and 51.

Second Rule: at which position is a given card in the deck?

If a card is called out, where is it in the deck?

This rule is even easier!Just look at the following examples and you

will be convinced!

. A spectator calls out the 9 of Clubs.

Committhe card to memory. Multiplyits value by 4:

9 x 4 = 36

From the resultant number, 36, remove the value associated to

the suit. Clubs being 15:

36 - 15 = 21

In these cases, you will apply the same method to find the multiple

of 4 but the division by 4 will yield a number greater than 13. In

these cases, simply subtract 13 from that resulting number and you

will obtain the right value!

. 41 :

The 9 of Clubs is the 21st card!

41+15 = 56

56 / 4 = 14 ~

The 41st card is the Ace of Clubs.

45+15 = 60

60/4 = 15 ~

. A spectator calls out the Queen of Hearts.

Commit the card to memory. Multiply its

Queen) by 4:

12 x 4 = 48

From 48, subtract the suit value, 10 for Heart.

14 - 13 = 1

value (12 for a

. 45 :

15 - 13 = 2

The 45th card is the 2 of Clubs.

46+10 = 56

56 / 4 = 14 ~

48 - 10 = 38

. 46 :

The Queen of Hearts is in the 38th position.

. The 3 of Spades is called out.

Committhe card to memory, and multiply its value by 4 :

3 x 4 = 12

14 - 13 = 1

. 49 :

The 46th card is the Ace of Hearts.

49+15 = 64

64 / 4 = 16 ~

16 - 13 = 3

From 12, subtract the suit value.

. 50 :

The 49th card is the 3 of Clubs.

50+10 = 60

60 / 4 = 15 ~

12 - 5 = 7

The 3 of Spades is in the 7th position.

. You'll love Diamonds. All you are required to do, is to multiply

the card's value by 4.

10 of Diamonds?

15 - 13 = 2

The 50th card is the 2 of Hearts.

51+ 5 = 56

56 / 4 = 14 ~

. 51 :

10 x 4 = 40

card is in 40th position.

King of Diamonds? 13 x 4 = 52

card is in the 52nd position.

14 - 13 = 1

The 51st card is the Ace of Spades.

N.B.: This mathematical rule will work for all the cards but an

adjustment must be madefor 6 of them. Theyare the same cards cor-

responding to theparlicular cases exposedin Rule #1: Ace of Clubs,

2 of Clubs,Ace of Hearls, 3 of Clubs,2 of Hearls and Ace of Spades.

Actually, if somebodycalls out one of thesecards, you willget a neg-

ative number, so here is what to do:

Easy

Applications

The3 of Clubs,for example, willyield a negative 3 value:

3 x 4

12 - 15

= 12

= -3

A card obviouslycannot be at a negativeposition in the deck...

unlessyou count from the bottom!Subtract 3 from 52 (the bot-

tom position) and you will get 49: the 3 of Clubs' position.

That's it!

T he real life applications of the Boris Wild Instant Memorized

Deck, or simply the BWIMD,are innumerable. Any routine

whose pre-requisite is the use of a memorized deck is pre-

sentable with this technique. It will sustain casual examination as for

the Si Stebbins stack.

So, whenfaced with a negative value, subtract the number from 52.

Easy!

FLASH MEMORIZATION

This simplest application is to simulate the memorization of a full

pack in a few seconds. Rapidly false shuffle your memorized deck

a few times, spread the cards in your hands with fierce intensity and

ask a spectator to call out a random number from 1 to 52. While

simulating intense recall of the pack's order, mentally perform the

"number to card" calculation as per the FirstRule and announce the

appropriate card. Hand over the pack, instruct the spectator to

count down to the position: the called out card will be there!

REVERSE FLASH MEMORIZATION

The reverse operation is just as effective!

Ask a spectator to call out a card of her choosing. After a few sec-

onds' concentration while applying the method from the Second

Rule, announce the card's exact location in the deck!

COVERT LOCATION

It is at times advantageous to be able to secretly locate a card, spe-

cially with a simple cut. Imagine that you are intend on forcing the

4 of Diamonds. You quickly calculate its position mentally and

know that the card is (Quick?Have you done it?) 16th from the top.

You may estimate the cut and cut to either under the 15th or over

the 16th, depending whether you wish for the card to be on top of
