You display a small packet of cards and ask that someone touch the back of any card they like. The selected card is removed from the packet and placed on the table. You then explain, "I'm glad you took that card because these are all mine." With that the cards in your hands are all turned to reveal the word MINE in big, bold letters. "But the card you took is yours." The spectator's selection is turned over to reveal the word YOURS printed on it in bright red letter, thus proving that what's mine is mine and what's yours is yours. A knock - out effect that requires no special counts or sleight of hand. Does not use rough & smooth. There is no force and can instantly be repeated.
