    17 A Transposition: make them gasp
    20 Table Method: of above
    22 Super Ace Control: Locate the Aces by their sound waves
    24 Turnover Divination: One of five cards is mentally selected, all five returned to the deck and facing the wrong way. All but the selection right themselves.

    26 Simplified Poker Deal: little skill required
    26 Double Deuce: The deuces sandwich the selection
