Easy Magic Tricks: Cutting to the Aces

Ask your friend to cut the deck so there are four semi-equal piles of cards. You need to watch where the top part of the deck with the aces lands. For a cleaner effect, you can ask the spectator to separate the deck by dropping cards off the bottom of the deck to create the piles. This way, the pile with the aces will end up at your extreme right or left, which makes the next steps more logical.
