        You  show a deck of cards, and then set a prediction face down on the table,  before the trick starts.  Next you bring out four different dice, each  with a different number of sides (D4, D6, D8 and D10).  The spectator  rolls the whole lot of dice, generating four random numbers, and then  they choose one of them to place on top of the prediction card.

The same procedure is repeated three more times - each time the spectator rolling the dice, generating random numbers, and then consciously choosing one to place onto a face down prediction card, placed down before the dice were rolled. The cards are carefully removed from underneath the cards, and flipped over... ASTONISHINGLY, EACH CARD HAS THE SAME VALUE AS THE DICE THE SPECTATOR CHOSE TO PLACE ONTO IT! Easy to do, includes the dice, bag and special 'something'.  Just provide your own deck of bicycles.  You also receive video instructions with Liam's teaching, variations and bonus handlings!
