Easy Magic Trick: The Card Conversion

The secret to this trick is that when you spread the cards with the tens in the same direction (up) and with the "full card" on top (displaying its ten), it looks as if you are holding four tens. Turn the cards the other way so the aces are showing (upward) and place on top the full card (displaying its ace), and it appears that you have four aces.

Experiment with this until you are comfortable with the concept.

Start by displaying the “four tens” to the audience as shown in the picture.
