Here’s what happens:

1. A deck is borrowed and shuffled. The performer reminds the audience of the exact date.

2. The deck is distributed out to the spectators. One of them takes a small packet and counts how many cards they took. All the spectators peek at the card in their packets for that secret number.

3. The cards are then put back together, and the deck is shuffled.

4. The deck is dealt down into two packets, one with the same number as the day and the other with the same number as the month.

5. Two spectators name their cards, and impossibly, those cards are on top of each of the packets.
